1st & 5th against 2.884 birds with children of “Sunny Boy”
At May 30th, John Crehan had his first race across the ‘channel’, from France to England. A heavy test for the yearlings who have to do this for the first time. 30 mei vervloog John Crehan in Engeland voor het eerst een vlucht ‘over het kanaal’…van Frankrijk naar Engeland. Oftewel, een zware beproeving voor jaarlingen die dit voor de eerste keer moeten doorstaan. De echte bikkels komen vaak direct naar voren.
Birds are escaped in Carentan, in the north west of France. For John almost 500 kilometers, with the 1st kilometers across salt water. In Johns’ federation are basketed 2.884 birds. Against these pigeons, John won : 1-8-22-24! Nice top birds!
It’s amazing to see that the 1st and 2nd bird are born from the same pairing, they where nestmates!
Their father is “Sunny Boy” (full brother Harry, direct from the stock pair Jonge Bliksem x Dirkje) and he was paired to “610 Dochter Davinci”. Both yearling race birds had show already that they could win more top prizes:
