Last weekend we had two races. We only participate in the last races from the loft of Combinatie Ebben.
The first 'late tour' race (young & old) was kept from Bierges. We entered the best 11 old birds and the 12 worst performing (up till now) youngbirds.
We had a very good result winning 1-2-3-5-15-46-50 and so on vs 2,144 pigeons. From the 11 oldbirds 8 won a prize card and from the 12 youngsters only 4.
The first bird that arrived was NL20-1302170 'Paris'. This granddaughter to 'Edgar', 'Evolution', 'Hannibal' and 'Katja' won already 9 x 1:00. For her pedigree click here.
The 2nd bird that arrived was a youngster, NL22-8280514, a direct daughter to 'Linus' x 'Katja', so a full sister to NL20-1302163 'Pizza' (2nd national ace pigeon long distance 2022) and NL20-1302164 'Pandemic' (14 x 1:100). We don't have a photo of her yet....
The 3rd bird that arrived was BE20-6130891 'Pieta', original Fernand and Koen Mariën and a toppigeon from 100-650 kms. For her pedigree click here.
The fourth pigeon that arrived was NL19-1466502 'Oceana', a granddaughter to our basic pigeon 'Indy'. For her pedigree click here.
