Farid Sait was sleek and meek. He was suffering from Diabetes of high order. During training, one of the horses cast a kick which inflicted a deep wound in his leg. Inspite of treatment, being diabetes, the wound worsened day after day and his leg was due for amputation. Someone had advocated that sea water was good for the wound and so he went to Kovalam Beach. (app. 30 kms from Chennai) and stood in the sea.Kovalam is known for the rock boulders in the sea. While concentrating on washing his wounds, a big wave pounced on him lashing his head on a rock. This hard impact caused his death. All this happened in front of his wife standing on the shore. A tragic end of a humble man.
A.Pramod Goud, a champion apprentice, fell from GOOD HEART almost at the same spot where Kavan Kariappa, another promising jockey, was dislodged from MILLIONAIRE on 23rd Jan 2005. That sharp turn just before 800 metres had consumed the life of two capable jockeys.
MAY THEIR SOUL REST IN PEACE.
