28 Aug 2024
Ghlin - Team 3D once again showed its class on the national flight from Brive with an impressive performance. Their light-checkered hen, BE23-1089515, not only won the 1st provincial prize in the province of Walloon Brabant/Hainaut, but also the national victory in zone B1. With phenomenal speed, she left behind 488 yearlings in the province and finished as the fastest of the entire field of participants of 1,350 yearlings and old birds. In the zone, she overtook 1,060 pigeons.
Nationally, this hen finished in a handsome 6th place against no fewer than 3,491 yearlings, confirming once again that she belongs to the top.
Remarkable performance and impressive pedigree
This hen showed she is in top form a week earlier by finishing 15th Nat.Z at Souillac against 1,051 pigeons (77th nationally against 4,073 yearlings). It confirms her strong condition and perseverance, which is indispensable on tough national races.
The impressive pedigree of this hen undoubtedly contributes to her successes. On the paternal side, she descends from the line of "759-16", winner of the 32nd national prize at Barcelona 2021 and the 38th national prize at Narbonne. In addition, the sire also carries the bloodlines of "Fran", the 1st national ace KBDB Marathon pigeon. On the maternal side, the hen is descended from the best lines of Jelle Jellema, including top pigeons such as "Jaris", "Zwart Goud" and "Kleine Jade". These names are synonymous with class and quality in long-distance races.
Well-deserved congratulations
The entire Herbots team wishes Team 3D heartfelt congratulations on this exceptional performance and looks forward to their future successes.
