Leutenez Eddy and Maarten win 1st Interprovincial from Fontenay against 3,280 pigeons with grandson of “Alaphilippe” and “New Oscar”

18 May 2026

We know that Eddy and Maarten mainly focus on racing with young pigeons, but since the season would otherwise be too short, they also keep a limited racing team consisting of 11 yearling and 3 old cocks, along with 11 yearling and 1 old hen. Quality over quantity — and this was once again clearly demonstrated last weekend with their interprovincial victory against 3,280 pigeons from Fontenay.

The winner is yearling cock B25-4129092, a class pigeon bred from the very best Leutenez bloodlines. The winner is a grandson of both “Alaphilippe” and “New Oscar,” a reunion of national KBDB ace pigeons.
