We would like to thank our good freind Johan Van Est for this stunning image of the 'Young King' ...heel hartelijk bedankt!

First race of 2010

1st February 2010

Our first race of 2010 was the final of the Million Dollar Race in Sun City held on 30th January 2010. 

The final entry of 3155 birds were liberated from Hopetown a distance of 554 km into a stiff headwind with showers en-route.

The first of our two entries won 5th U.K. and 69th International after almost 12 hours on the wing and was one of only 142 birds to make it home on the day. She was bred from 'Golan' ( Son of YOUNG COUPLE) x 'Steffi' (Dtr Golden Gaby).

'Golan' has also bred in just two years :-

1st Pommeroeul 444b - 1st Fed 2183b - 1st Combine 7631b

1st Creil 395b - 2nd Fed 1839b - 10th Combine 25,960b 

1st Creil 285b - 1st Fed 1073b -23rd Combine 3892b

4th St.Quentin 432b - 9th Fed 1823b - 45th Combine 6350b

8th St.Quentin 545b - 24th Fed 1978b - 35th Combine 6903b

2nd Pomeroeul 285b - 2nd Fed 1072b - 3rd Combine 4502b

2nd St.Quentin 540b - 3rd Fed 1809b - 13th Combine 6626b

3rd Sezanne 226b - 11th Fed 748b - 87th National NPO 16026b

We have no doubt that 'GOLAN' will become one of our principle breeders in the near future.

Our second of two entries arrived the following morning at 08.15 to win 245th International. This young hen was another great performer bred from 'Outlaw' on this occasion paired with 'Sara' a sister of 'Syndicate Emerald' winner of 6th International in this race in 2006.

Two out of two in the prizes in this tough World famous race was very pleasing.
