Jockey Ngakau Halley Dies in Hamilton Dirtbike Crash
Ngakau Halley, an 18-year-old jockey from New Zealand's East Coast, died after a collision between his dirt bike and a car at the intersection of Whitiora/Willoughby and Mill St in Hamilton. Halley, in his third apprenticeship season with 46 career wins, sustained critical injuries and later died in hospital, while two occupants of the car suffered moderate injuries. Known for his natural talent and politeness, Halley had an early passion for riding and once considered a rugby league career before committing to racing. Tributes from the racing community, including trainers and peers, have highlighted his promise and character. A fundraising page has been set up to support his family, and jockeys plan to commemorate his memory at upcoming race meetings. Police investigations into the circumstances of the crash are ongoing.
