We move onto the longest inland race of our programme, Billericay in Essex, South East England.
Its around 345 miles back into central Scotland.

The birds were race marked on Thurday with a planned Saturday liberation,but due to the high temperatures forecast the race team agreed to liberate on the Friday morning at 8am.The 877 Lanarkshire birds and 2 Fauldhouse crates faced a light north west wind and high temperatures on route.

The winning pigeons took just over nine hours for the flight,but most struggled with the testing conditions with most fanciers only getting a fraction of their entries.Those racing on the Saturday fared no better into this part of the country!

This weeks Open winners are Callum & Liz McMillan of Allanton nr Shotts.This is their second federation win of the season.Their level of consistency has been excellent throughout the season with many section and open prizes.With most struggling to get a timer they had ten from fifteen sent on Open result.Brilliant flying in such a difficult race.

Well done Callum & Liz

Callum McMillan wins 1st East section 1st Open Billericay
