With more than 9 first prizes from races with large birdages, duplications included and including a victory at the Petit Club against 2,638 pigeons, the first half of the season of 2012 is simply sensational for the loft of Jean-Marc. His pigeons are in great shape and they proved it with their performance on the first weekend of June with a fantastic victory from Toury in the Petit Club.
Of the 3,787 pigeons (old birds and yearlings) basketed for this race, only 26 of them flew over the velocity of 1.200 m/min. Jean-Marc clocked 9 over the 1.200 m/min of these 26! Judge by yourself:
02/06 Toury (324 km) Petit Club – 1.655 olds : 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 13, 16, 39, 52, 64, 81, 95, 111, 118, 124, … 21/31 02/06 Toury (324 km) Petit Club – 2.128 yearlings : 2, 3, 23, 47, 60, 67, 86, 155, 194, … 13/20
You have to understand that his opponents at the Petit Club are no less than Deno-Herbots, Michel Vanlint, Lambrecht-Lismont etc. This just shows how good this performance is. The middle to long distance season is only at its beginning and Jean-Marc hopes to benefit in the coming weeks from favorable flying conditions for his loft location, this means a west to north-west wind for him. When you understand that his pigeons are at the peak of their performance, the results in weeks to come should be fantastic. We are interested to see what the racers of Jean-Marc, especially his racing hens who are already setting the sky alight this year, will show us when they benefit from the right racing conditions. These results are proof that his breeding regime, crossing Pros by Vandenabeele is working perfectly and that he was rarely wrong when he went in search of new pigeons to strengthen his breeding loft.
