Narrative:
This event occurred on a go around. Because the aircraft speed was higher than normal during the initiation of the go around; there was a smaller window to retract the gear. The gear speed limitation was exceeded.this go around was initiated because of an unstable approach. Factors were a change in the arrival runway at the last minute; ATC assigning us 310 knots or better on the arrival; and a tailwind before turning final. [This could have been avoided with] better planning on the arrival to slow and descend; asking ATC for a vector for more space; aborting the approach earlier before go around is needed; and better go around planning.
