GB2026V41430 "Moonshine" BLUE COCK A grandson of the Leonard × Suzanne foundation pair, out of a double granddaughter of Mick, 1st Final Who Dares Wins 2021
"Moonshine" joins two Who Dares Wins winning families. On his sire's side he is a direct grandson of Champion Leonard × Suzanne, the pair that bred Hurricane, 1st WDW OLR final 2020 and £40,000. On his dam's side he is a great-grandson, twice over, of "Mick", 1st Final WDW 2021, 1st Semi-final and 1st Ace Pigeon.
The Sire — GB2023V29111 "Lancaster"
Blue pied cock · son of Champion Leonard × Suzanne
"Champion Leonard" (BELG2012-2176101) × "Suzanne" (BELG2017-3008494) is the foundation pair of this loft. Together they bred "Hurricane" (GB2020V52557), winner of the Who Dares Wins OLR final 2020 and £40,000, also 4th Ace. The card credits the pair's children and grandchildren with more than £300,000 in OLR prize money. Lancaster is a full brother to Hurricane. The card describes the pair as "responsible for 3 x first OLR winners and several other top prize winners in the hardest OLR's in the world".
The pair's record goes well beyond Hurricane. Leonard also sired 8th Limoges from 1,270 birds, 22nd Argenton from 2,486, and 1st UK, 5th Final and 12th Ace at the Belgian Masters OLR 2015. Through his sons he is grandsire of Scirocco, 1st UK and 5th Final Pattaya OLR from 11,000+ birds, and of GB2022S56170, 9th Final RPRA OLR. Suzanne is grand-dam on both sides of Euro, 1st Europa Masters OLR final 2022 (€30,000), great-grand-dam of Gold Wing, 2nd Ace Algarve Golden Race 2023, and grand-dam of GB2025V45385, 1st UK Ace at Pa Mok 2025 from 3,418 birds. The card describes her as "best ever breeder of OLR prizewinners".
The Dam — GB2023V46599
Bred by Gary Tomlinson · double granddaughter of Mick
Both her parents are children of Mick (NEHU2021SP3304). The card calls Mick "probably the best OLR racer ever": 1st Final Who Dares Wins 2021, 1st Semi-final, 1st Ace Pigeon and two solid gold medals. He went on to breed for Herbots in Belgium and is now in China. Her dam "Michelle" is out of "Lovely New Harry", a daughter of New Harry, so the dam also carries New Harry blood.

Mike Chadwick has to be one of the most successful Breeders of OLR pigeons world wide Bird for bird when you consider the relatively small team of birds he keeps compared to most !!
Having already secured 3 separate OLR Victories with this superb family of pigeons his drive to produce even more is relentless.
I have know Mike for some years now and his Knowledge and ability to breed outstanding stock is phenomenal !!
I have handled every one of these and the buyers will not be disappointed !!
