easygaun Posted June 24, 2019 Report Posted June 24, 2019 Good omen for my dark cheq he is half Mark Gilbert but unfortunately I am not lol.Hope we get a real race and not like all season vel in 14/1500sIf you were Mark Gilbert you would probably be sending 100
drummondp842 Posted June 24, 2019 Report Posted June 24, 2019 Well that's the last of the prep so who's confident? Who's wanting a surprise? How many? Looking at 2 from 4 I think here. Not been in past form but you've got to be in it to win it. I have been training 3 hens for weeks for this race, gave them their last toss took them 60 miles with my latebreds 12 in total. Got my first one 3 hrs later and ended with on 6 on the night. Got another 3 next morning with no tail and half a wing. 3 sytill missing two of them my fancy for the Gold Cup, gutted......

JonesyBhoy Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 What’s the birdage been like at the marking station Tonight. Was over 300.. not sure the exact tho
Delboy Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 Ive had a nightmare tonight, sent 7 to Gold cup and when I got home I saw my printout only had 6 on it lol. Panic stations but all sorted now, just have to set another clock as one of my birds wasn't registered in the ets but was rubbered. Got home and let my birds out at 8.30pm, they are still flying at 11.30pm in complete darkness, A bunch of bats going around here lol

Or would it be because he’d read the rubber side of the verification it could’ve been missed that not on ETS screen

Jumbo Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 Surely the bird had to be scanned then ring no read out to see if the ring numbers matched?????Then you must have signed a copy of your sheet???
Guest mambo Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 Any one that sent birds to race needs a visit from the cruilty people its expected to be 140 % heat most of the nipa member's have more morals

Guest mambo Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 These birds should be called home, as it is sitting at 45 deg in France and the national knew of this problem, greed is not to be made the anser here, these birds will go down and they will probably will not lift again ,if you think much about your birds a suggest you get on the phones never to late
