Today is an exciting day because the first long distance races from La Ferte Sait Aubin takes place.
The weather is good. The first part of the way back has a weak northerly wind, but the last part there is a strong north-westerly wind, so it will not be an easy task for the pigeons. The temperatures are on the low side (approx 15-18 degrees).
At the loft of W. & F. Ebben we entered 18 birds and at the loft of Combinatie Ebben we entered 20 birds. Unfortunately we had to keep a big favorite (20-891 with among others 1. Chateauroux 923 b, 4. Vierzon 1.062 b. and 8 Dizy le Gros 14.634 b.) at home due to a minor leg injury. Nevertheless, we are very confident in a good outcome, the circumstances are not bad for us and we have more favorites.
At this moment we expect the birds between 1.30-2.30 p.m.
