We no longer sprint with our Old Birds. In recent years we’ve just keep a team of Distance pigeons as Old Birds to give us an interest in the ultimate race for us – “The Kings Cup”. We’re still learning our trade in this discipline but our recent record stands up to most lofts in this arena. By obtaining the very best bloodlines, we figure we give ourselves the best chance possible in acquiring good results – despite flying to a loft location that’s super awkward for French racing.
In 2023 we were 48th Open Kings Cup (460 members sent 1,913 birds)
In 2024 we were 14th Open Kings Cup (425 members sent 1,961 birds)
In 2025 we nearly achieved all our dreams winning 2nd Open Kings Cup (429 members sent 2,367 birds)
We’ve now retired that hen “IRON MAIDEN” to Stock as she was also 75th Open Kings Cup in 2024 as a yearling.
In the gallery below you’ll see our breeders who were all bred by Mark Gilbert. You’ll also see “IRON MAIDEN” (who was also bred by Mark Gilbert). At Stock you’ll find our bloodlines are superb – we have DIRECT CHILDREN from such superstars as “SOUTHFIELD HISTORY”, “SOUTHFIELD HUGO”,”SOUTHFIELD GOLD LADY”, “SOUTHFIELD GOLD” etc (all 1st National winners)
