Beach work ~ Pakiri
Brilliant sprinter Run Like the Wind was working on the beach as ne normally did, when he suffered a serious fetlock injury. The damaged foreleg was strapped and he was transported to a Takanini veterinary clinic, but x-rays confirmed the worst and he was euthanased, December 2005. He was one of the favourites for the $200,000 Waiwera Infinity Railway Handicap following his runaway win in the Gr. 2 Concorde at his last start. He ran his rivals ragged in the big Avondale sprint late last month, taking his record to seven wins from 19 starts.
