Herbots Bros (Jo and Raf) - S.NAT against 2,390 yearlings: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th - Argenton
10 Jun 2026
With a one-day delay, our yearlings and old birds were released on Sunday 7 June from Argenton, a distance of 534 km.
Our yearlings performed exceptionally well, but what is particularly remarkable is that the offspring of our super pigeon DE FLUP delivered top performances.
In the S.NAT against 2,390 yearlings, we won 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 8th, 16th, 17th, 20th, 22nd, 23rd, 24th, ... (51/68) and National against 22,311 yearlings we won 19th, 20th, 23rd, 25th, 34th, 38th, 59th, 72nd, 183rd, 199th, ...
The 19th National is a son of DE FLUP, and the 20th, 23rd and 59th National are three grandchildren of DE FLUP, making four descendants of DE FLUP in the top 59 nationally.
Rarely have we seen such dominance, and hopefully they will continue to do so in the future. With our 9th pigeon (183rd National), nominated numbers 1, 2, 3 and 4 are in the clock.
