05 May 2026

Zoe Junior winning 1st prize in Marche against 2,237 pigeons. Last weekend was entirely dedicated to great performances and special moments at Greenfield Stud in Brummen. On Saturday, May 2, the pigeons were released in Marche at 07:50 AM. For the combination H. & E.J. Eijerkamp in Brummen, this meant a race distance of 214 kilometers, while the pigeons of Eijerkamp-Paalman in Laren had to cover 228 kilometers. The pigeons showed their very best side and returned to the loft right on time, resulting in an exciting and successful race day. 

Again 'Zoe Junior' who led the team in Brummen just a few seconds before 'Next Geeloger'. Geeloger offspring keeps dominanting in our racing team. 'Zoe Junior' is direct bred from Olympiade Stefaan X Zoe', both superpigeons in Brummen and the genes not far fallen from the tree so to say. Jacki Naomi arrived in 3rd place, granddaughter of Naomi and Vetblauwe Jackpot. 

In short, a weekend to look back on with great pleasure: strong races, excellent results, and great company. On to next week!
