About

Fly By Light is a 4yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Clinton McDonald at Cranbourne. He is by Flying Artie out of Light Exceed. He has secured two career wins. On 30 Jan 2026 at Cranbourne he earned his most notable triumph, taking the $60000.00 3-y-o Maiden Plte. He has been a profitable runner for punters, and a full‑career backing would have produced a 38% return on investment.
