it will be hard to get the best sprint middle distance birds from someone in your area unless you know them. try look at fed results from a different fed to you maybe a fed on your boundary .look and pick out the three or four names that keep coming up week in week out. then try them for yb,s by phone it should not be to hard to get phone numbers from club secretary. also ask which strains they race and where did the original parents or grand parents come from . some will help some will not don,t be put off if at 1st you get brushed of quick style.as for exact strains we all have slightly different opinions .most good strains their name will keep coming up. van loons/ staff van reets /busshartes to name only 3 .
another way watch the forum this season see who is doing the winning then ask them a few questions about strain parents ect sure they will help
