Well done Bobby, I got another yin at 8 o'clock

Well done big man

Thanks Frank, Timed Red Aspect thats 4 national tickets, he was my first timer from Bovingdon, a guid honest widowhood cock

Well done to all who clocked in tonight :lol:

He fly's 190 odd from Reims

I would think so. He says it's really warm down there today about 28 degrees

My mate who flys in Ramsgate spotted a batch of 30 birds coming right off the sea heading north at 11:15. Reims birds??????? This gives a speed of 40mph

Sent you a PM

Ye dinnae get eggs fae widowhood cocks :lol:

Thanks all for your kind comments

Well done Karen, Ye can buy a few Aero Bars now after the one ye spilt the other night!!

Yer well measured. I only get 5 miles off ye and yer due east 10 miles

3168 birds was the year before from Reims. I know cos I beat 3167 of them!!!

Me too. The Eastbourne doos (yearlings) can go back to Ypres

I think you better check your distances Reims 20 miles further than Alencon

Andy, My Guess 1000. Was La Ferte Bernard not further??

Maybe some of the doos are not ready (fit enough physically and mentally) for the first national. Gone are the days when you can send them to get fit and they plod up the road, this doesn't happen nowadays. I've no complaints personally with returns from the 2 nats 9/10 and 16/20 but I do believe its better to avoid sending yearlings to the first race and bet these are the majority of the losses.

Stick to your plan unless injuries come into play although I'm sending a yearling hen to Reims due to her condition

got 2 at 5:30am and one when at work now 16/20

Sending 4 widowhood cocks 5 y-old, 3y-old and 2 2y-olds. Also a yearling hen basketted on 10 day eggs. Good Luck to all.
