Your returns and losses both look fairly good by today,s standards Peter. The feeding looks like it may help ? , maybe ? . I suppose the losses at the loft could be down too breeding and/or predators. It certainly seems Davey,s method of not training has helped too , will you continue with this next season ? I have had a few fanciers tell me birds with only a few races under the belt as young and yearlings seem to fair well at the distance as they get older ?
