NL 20-1418024 BLUE COCK · "PERFECT OLYMPIC 024" · Direct LEO VAN RIJN

A son of "Mr Perfect", sire of 1st prize winners against 1,763, 2,004 and 2,185 birds, out of a full sister to "Olympic Leny 301"

"Perfect Olympic 024" is bred from two of Leo van Rijn's breeding birds: his sire "Mr Perfect" (NL 12-1517010) has bred 1st prize winners against 1,763, 2,004 and 2,185 birds from two different hens, and his dam "Olympic Schanull 286" (NL 18-1018286) is the mother of Ace NL 19-1586733 and a full sister to "Olympic Leny 301", listed on the card as 5th Best Olympiad Holland, young birds 2018. In the breeder's words, the cock comes "from 2 top breeders of Leo van Rijn who gives both several combine winners".

The Sire — NL 12-1517010 "Mr Perfect"

Mealy (kras) cock · Keizer line · sire of 1st prize winners in two seasons

Mr Perfect has bred winners in two separate seasons with two different hens, which is the best evidence on the card that he passes something on rather than having been lucky with one mating. The card lists four of his youngsters:

Son NL 16-718 — 1st Pont-Sainte-Maxence, 1,763 birds

Daughter NL 16-678 — 1st Pontoise, 2,004 birds

Daughter NL 14-314 — 1st Menen, 2,185 birds

Son NL 14-315 — 2nd Duffel, 3,573 birds

He is a son of "Blue Ace 708" (NL 01-1743708), General Ace and middle-distance ace at club level in 2002 and sire of Super Ace 2003, NL 02-1501118, who won four 1st prizes including two 1st Rayon wins, against 3,662 birds from Menen and 3,029 from Pont-Sainte-Maxence. His dam, "Kleindochter Keizer 222" (NL 08-1428094), carries the breeder's Keizer line through her sire and the hen "Super Woman" through her dam.

The Dam — NL 18-1018286 "Olympic Schanull 286"

Blue hen · Leo van Rijn × Willem de Bruin · dam of an ace · full sister to Olympic Leny 301

The card describes her as a "top hen breeding loft, mother of many winners", and names one of them: she is the direct mother of Ace NL 19-1586733, bred in her first breeding season.

Her full sister "Olympic Leny 301" (NL 18-301) is the family's racing proof. The breeder named her after his late wife, and credits her with 5th Best Olympiad Holland, young birds 2018, along with 1st against 2,264 birds, 1st Pont-Sainte-Maxence (215 birds), 1st Menen (231), 1st Fontenay (170), 2nd Menen, 2,940 birds, 2nd Péronne, 2,667 birds and 4th Pont-Sainte-Maxence, 5,491 birds. Leny and the dam of this cock are the same mating, so that record speaks directly for the blood in his dam.

That mating is "Hattrick 790" (NL 06-2140790) × "Schanulleke 396" (NL 14-1060396), the latter bred by Willem de Bruin and described on the card as a daughter of his crack Schanulleke.

Super proven Direct Leo Van Rijn !!

foot note from the seller below.

These pigeons are on auction as my partner has health issues and I have work commitments. These 6 lots would definitely not be up for sale otherwise! Four of these lots are directly from Leo’s loft just before they were all sold to china. They have all bred winners up to federation level!
