Bosmans-Leekens, Beverlo, ‘Vince The Prince’ wins for the second time 1st Provincial Limburg, this time on Limoges !
17 Jun 2021
The season started of really well at the tandem Marc Bosmans and Dirk Leekens who race from the lofts in Beverlo with a few top results and provincial head prizes. Due to some extra middle distance race the pigeons weren’t flown in that good and didn’t come home very well on the 1st 2 national races Bourges and Chateauroux where they had head wind, they did have a lot of prizes, yes, but not really top. Until the past weekend had the national race Limoges and the provincial race Melun, hope is set that it is all going to be ok.
On Limoges they win 1st Provincial Limoges against 1,150b (which is in the meantime provincial victory number 27) and on Melun they win the 2nd Provincial against 1,558b and now we all hope that this trend will continue the coming weeks.
They have a racing team of 40 old and yearling cocks and 45 old and yearling hens who are being raced on classic widowhood. On this Limoges they basketed 8 cocks and 8 hens where the hens had Bourges as preparation and the cocks had Melun.
‘Vince The Prince’ BE18-5014603
Nevertheless they mainly race hens, the provincial winner this time was a cock namely ‘Vince The Prince’ BE18-5014603.
It isn’t his first exploit as this isn’t his first 1st Provincial victory as in 2019 he already won the 1st Provincial Tulle as yearling.
