Set in a demanding school that only admits 10 to 20 students per year, Gunjou no Fanfare is a youth drama that follows the lives of three young men - a boy who formerly belonged to an idol group, a boy who was raised on a remote island, and a boy from England whose parents dictate his future for him - as they train to become professional horse racing jockeys. Can they make it through three years of schooling that tests not only their motor skills and academic prowess, but also their physical attributes as well?
