The Premier YB Nat was flown from Talbenny in South Wales, liberated with all the Irish birds at the early time of 7.45am in a north west wind on Saturday. It was a hard enough event a number of lofts doing very well while others were late and some failed to record any arrivals at all. Very typical of this race in testing conditions, the overall winner is expected to be Donnelly Bros of the Newry City who record velocity 1101. Local lofts will be very well placed with Danny Dixon of Rasharkin best in the Coleraine Centre doing 1097 and W & J Smyth of Ballymena & Dist best in the Cullybackey Centre doing 1095. Danny Dixon timed a Dark Cheq hen a darkness youngster that had all previous races, a direct daughter of their 1st Comb, 1st Sect & 4th Open Rosscarbery winner earlier in the season. Bloodlines are Verschelde x Sumo and the loft has now collected 8 x 1st Comb and 6 x 1st Sect wins following a record season in the Ballymoney HPS. W & J Smyth who timed their bird at 13.39hrs were flying 220 miles and won their third young bird race.

While out and about on Bank Holiday Monday I called with the North Coast Classic One Loft Race based in Coleraine, birds had been released at 12.10pm in Tullamore, the final Hot Spot prior to the big Grand Final from Cork City next Sunday. Please note that the NCC Dinner Presentation will take place on Sunday 5th September in the Lodge Hotel Coleraine at 7pm, some tickets are still available. The first bunch of birds arrived around 2.45pm and the first bird to trap belonged to Pat Cregan and Noel Murray from Derry who were among the watching crowd. Also present were John & Viv Abernethy who bred the bird, one of the Venture Team put in earlier in the year. It looked like a very good final toss and we wish all competitors the best of luck next weekend. Many thanks to Sean and Peter Diamond who kept me up to date during my short visit.
Race report from NCC. Tickets are still available for the NCC Dinner Presentation which will take place on Sunday 5th September at 7pm in the Lodge Hotel. Tickets can be purchased from the Loft or by contacting Peter on 07591122536.

Farming Life - Wednesday 01/09/10
The News Letter, now in its fourth century of continuous publication, has come a long way since it first saw the light of day in 1737. On a visit to Northern Ireland, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth described the longevity of the newspaper as "an achievement in which the people of Northern Ireland can take great pride". Pigeon News is featured in the Farming Life supplement each Wednesday.
