On Tuesday morning while schooling at Gisbornei Mr. Norman McKenzie’s hurdle and steeplechase gelding Cloudy Dawn, leased from Mr. T. O’Connor, injured his back and had to be destroyed. This is bad luck for the owner, lessee and the Gisborne Racing Club, as the gelding was very well, and it was considered likely to win a race at the Gisborne meeting this week and distinguish himself in steeplechase events this season.
