jimmy white Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 Right theres a lot of older fanciers on here who have a great knowledge and memory of the Scottish National racing scene going back many years... (something which fascinantes me).. What in your opinions are the best ever performances..?? Dosen't necessarily have to be a National winner.. just looking for really top performances.. any one remember the" big hen" i think it was jock reid of stenhousemuir [maybe mistaken],, but scored 5 times from rennes ,,b4 the gold award came into place,, great pigeon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
