Decimal Point finish in EDC –

East Combine delayed their race from Mount Charles, just over 5,000 birds were released on Sunday at 11.15am in a North East wind. It was a very tight finish with Philip McCullough & Daughter from Downpatrick a decimal point ahead of Gordon Bros & Sons who had four early arrivals. Last week’s Open winner Roy Irwin from Dundonald again had 1st in the West Section. Have a look at the new website www.edcracingpigeons.co.uk
