Crossword Genius

Hound dangerous when one's going for run (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

harry

'hound' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for harry that I've seen before include "Male" , "English prince - trouble" , "Ravage - prince" , "Persistently harass" , "Make repeated attacks on, badger" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
