Huub Hermans from Born (NL) wins 1st NPO Argenton!
After several weeks in which top rankings had already been piling up, the loft has once again made its mark with an impressive victory in the provincial race from Argenton. Earlier this season, the excellent form had already been demonstrated with a 2nd Provincial Sens against 11.443 pigeons, a 3rd Provincial Reims against 8.572 pigeons, and a 5th Provincial Issoudun against 4,893 pigeons.
In Argenton, everything fell perfectly into place. Competing against 2.759 pigeons, “Mister Magic Argenton” secured the 1st NPO victory over a distance of 587 kilometres. The winner is also an inbred descendant of the famous foundation sire “Blue Magic”, once again confirming his exceptional breeding qualities.
Not only was the top prize impressive, but the overall team performance was equally remarkable. Of the 38 pigeons entered, no fewer than 27 won prizes, resulting in an outstanding team achievement and further proof of the excellent form the loft is currently enjoying.
