Pigeon Pixels One Loft Race 2014

3rd Hotspot

The 3rd Hotspot in this year's Pigeon Pixels One Loft Race took place on the 4th August 2014. Unfortunately due to the weather the race point was once again from the 103 miles stage. 42 were basketed in anticipation of another good race. The prizes were announced of £100 to the winner, £64 for the Gold Ring and £120 for the Nom. All 20 members had in interest in this race which is fantastic for those concerned. News came that the birds had been liberated at 8.30am and by 10.16am the winning bird has been recorded!

The winner and taking 1st Open was the same pigeon who had finished 1st Open in the 2nd Hotspot the previous week. Certainly a bird in form and the winner for the 3rd week running was Rob Beynon from Pembrokeshire, Wales. Rob has started the series in stunning form winning the first three Hotspots which is no mean feat! Rob had confidence in this bird as it was also entered in the Nom and collected a cool £220 in total! This bird is a Verheye / Frans Zwols. On the dam side is a Verheye bred by Franny Perruzzi of Norwich and on the sire side is a Frans Zwols from Johnny Strachan of Scotland.

2nd Open and just 47 seconds behind the winner was Fletch (J Fletcher & son). The bird is a Van Reet bred from their stock loft, who also bred a pair of good ybs last year in there 1st nest and also bred their club winner (Tibbington club) from the previous week. The sire of the pigeon was breed from their good friend R Gelder & Sons who won several races for them before going into the stock loft. The dam is their line of Van Reets, she is a daughter of our number 1 stock cock, as a young bird she won twice herself, before being put to stock as her breeding lines were ideal for stock. Unfortunately the bird was not activated by Fletch in the Gold Ring but after being opened up to the other members on the forum was activated by PRS1219 (Paul Stokes) who duly collected £64 for the first Gold Ring clocked!

3rd Open and recording the same time as the previous bird, went to a pigeon bred by Madmick (Michael Moran) from Derry, Ireland. No details are available at present for this bird.

4th Open and under 2 minutes behind the winner went to a bird bred by PJC (Mr and Mrs P.Crawford, Wales). The cheq cock is half brother to the Red hen that finished 2nd Open in the Final of the Pigeon Pixels One Loft Race in 2013. He is out of the Stamvaeter Janssen lines, bred by Mr & Mrs J Crawford from Oxford.

5th Open and under 3 minutes behind the winner went to Fyne Lofts (Terry Markwick) from Dunoon. Unfortunately no details are available for this bird.

6th Open this week and 5 minutes behind the winner went to Miiicky (Michael) from Belfast.

Once again returns were fantastic with the only bird being dropped from the 42 sent being the 1st Hotspot winner... crazy, but that's pigeon racing for you! Next week the birds go to 124 miles for the first time. Things are warming up very nicely with 2 more Hotspots prior to the final race! We are already working on plans to make the One Loft Race even bigger and better next season!
