Dominating the races from 350 till 700km !

We had a very busy racing weekend with three races on the same day. The races were rather difficult. There was almost no wind blowing but the temperatures were rather high. Especially for the youngsters the races were challenging. We were very happy about our results this weekend. No less than five different pigeons won a first prize! Our youngsters dominated the middle distance race Sermaises and our superstar “La Donna”(B18-6020283) showed again why she is one of the very best pigeons in Belgium. On the national Brive (704km) the province of Antwerp was rather unlucky. In the late afternoon several heavy thunderstorms and rain showers were present for the Antwerp birds on their racing track back home. Because of this they lost a lot of time, only one Antwerp pigeon could be found in the national top 100. So we had to focus on the regional results instead and with 1-2-3 these were satisfying of course.

Our pigeons won the following results :

Now let us switch to the Brive (707km) result. As earlier mentioned, the province of Antwerp was rather unlucky on this race. In the late afternoon several heavy thunderstorms and rain showers were present for the Antwerp birds on their racing track back home.
