Bourges II
Bourges is the flight which Karlo Van Rompaey will always be associated with. In the past, Karlo has won this National classic a staggering 3 (!) times. In the past season, Bourges II was once again the time to strike in Sint-Truiden. With 3 pigeons in the National Top 15 in the yearlings race we can well speak of a stunt once again! The pigeons hereafter also came quickly which resulted in the following National result with the yearlings:
4-6-14-47-373-522-526-613-1212-1407-2233-2572-2648 (13/30) against 11,952 yearlings
Karlo had also basketed 5 old birds and was once again close to victory on 'his' Bourges:
6-1562 (2/5) against 8,410 old birds
Successful breeding results with Hattrick, Prima Dora and PEC bloodlines
The foundation to these successes can be traced back to 2 former super racers from Sint-Truiden as well as co-breeding with the PEC. Karlo has managed to make the most out of these three breeding lines.
Hattrick won 1st Nat. Bourges against 14,449 p. in 2015. The hen Prima Dora won in 1st Nat. Bourges against 18,826 p. in that same season.
One of the top pigeons that was bred from crossing these lines is the mother of 'Maurice', 1st National Souillac against 7,514 pigeons at Casaert-Senechal. Mother of Maurice is BE18-4194002, Dochter Hattrick x Boxter. Besides the national winner Maurice, she is also mother of:
‘238/20’, wins the following prizes at the Algarve Golden Race 2020:
2nd Semi-Final Castelo Branco – 3,915 pigeons
8th Portalegre- Azaruja – 4,081 duiven
Another top pigeons from these lines is the cock BE18-4194346, son Hattrick x Prima Dora. In co-breeding with various PEC pigeons, this son of Hattrick and Prima Dora is father to:
2nd Reg. Soissons 560 p.
6th Nat. Bourges 11,952 p.
16th Nat. Zone Souillac 1,285 p.
17th Nat. Bourges 25,096 p.
22nd Nat. Zone Bourges 4,514 p.
23rd Nat. Zone Châteauroux 3,349 p.
30th Nat. Châteauroux 24,617 p.
58th Nat. Zone Bourges 4,801 p.
Phenomenal breeding genes, which is no surprise with such parents (both National Bourges winners)! The crossing with top pigeons from PEC is proven to be a great success, which immediately ensures results on the middle to long distance races.
With such results and breeding lines, that continue to deliver, Karlo Van Rompaey can go into the coming seasons with confidence. With spectacular pigeon racing in Sint-Truiden, Karlo Van Rompaey will undoubtedly continue to shine in the future!
