Expectations were for speeds around 1500 m/min, but the race turned out to be somewhat tougher than anticipated.

The first to report back to the lofts, 1,420 m.p.m., was the hen ‘Juanita’ NL24-8207448NL24-8207448, at Lotte Eijerkamp’s, who ended up being the fastest in the federation against 966 pigeons but also won 4. National in the Grand Prix against 9,606 pigeons.

‘Juanita’ also flew in the lead group last week from Gien and is showing that even more can be expected from her. 'Juanita' is a daughter of ‘Creator’, son of Olympic Hans’ x ‘Pretty Lady’, while the dam is ‘Sister Jet’, the top racer and breeder purchased from Gebr. A & B Leideman.

The second pigeon was once again a granddaughter of Olympic Hans"Olympic Hans", as it was ‘Hurricane Hannah’, NL24-8208193NL24-8208193, who claimed her third top prize of the 2025 season.

The race from Laon (332 km), shortened due to the heat protocol issued by the Dutch National Organization, was released on Saturday at 06:45 under a variable south wind. Despite negative advice, the pigeons were released early, while thunderstorms were still passing over Belgium and the Netherlands. For Section 8, this race will be remembered as a particularly poor one. The first pigeons still made good speed, but after that, the race dragged on for almost 2.5 hours in the South-East flying area. By the end of the day, many pigeons were still missing from our loft, including several top birds. Some returned on Sunday, but unfortunately, too many good ones are still missing.

The overall result was also disappointing, definitely a race to forget.
