Jo & Florian Hendriks - Nijswiller (NL) excel with outstanding results

While the last smoke after the NPO and Interprovincial victory from La Souterraine has only just disappeared, Jo and Florian Hendriks once again show themselves from a real unique side.

Their young birds performances are close to perfection, with incredible series of top positions as result … and on July 24th, the old birds National Blois, they raced the 15. fastest pigeon of the entire country against over 30,000 birds. The train is on a move … can it be stopped?

Jo and Florian entered 70 juniors for the race from Charleville, where a total of 949 pigeons in the Fed. Zuid-Oost-Hoek battled for the honor. 36 prize cards were won with the following impressive series of prize cards as result:
1-2-3-5-6-13-15-18-21-25-26-27-28-29-33-34-35-37-50-54-58-60-63-etc.
In combine against 2,089 this was 1-2-3-11-15-34-38-43 etc.
Winner is NL10-5009064, a direct daughter to fantastic ‘New Favoriet’ x ‘Blauwke Figo’. ‘New Favoriet’ is himself winner of 1. Sens against 1,730 birds, 1. Sezanne against 1,680 birds, 1. Rethel against 833 birds and 2. Reims against 758 birds. ‘New Favoriet’ is one of the most talented sons to top breeding ace ‘Popey’ … mother to 064 is ‘Blauweke Figo’, direct of Kees Bosua from ‘Kleine Figo’ x ‘Raina’ … that makes her half sister to Olympiad bird ‘Kannibaal’ and his nest mate ‘Kerkduifje’ (1. National Blois).

The week before Charleville this same young bird already performed incredibly well … 53 of 70 entered youngsters won prize cards and against 1,062 birds it resulted in the following sensational score:
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-9-10-11-12-13-14-15-16-17-18-19-20-22-23-24-25-27-29-30-31-32-33-34-37-39-40-43-52-55-56-57-76-88-96-etc.
This time it was NL10-5009044 being fastest in the crowd … she too is blessed with super genes that know how to win top positions. Her father is ‘Bonte Verkerk’, especially selected by Bas en bred from ‘Globetrotter’ (2. Nat. racing cock WHZB 2002) x ‘Oprah’ (3. Nat. racing hen WHZB 2006) … mother is ‘Jo’s Favorite’, an excellent breeding wonder from again ‘Popeye’ when he was paired to a daughter to ‘Figo’ of Reynaert. ‘Jo’s Favorite’ also bred the winner of 1. Charleville against 616 birds and the winner of 2. Dutch Open final race 2008!!! A hen therefore of real top class …

National Blois
National Blois on July 24th was a very satisfying end for the old birds season of the top tandem from Nijswiller. Of course, the 1. NPO La Souterraine remains the absolute highlight; 15. prize from whole of The Netherlands against over 30,000 birds (12 entered, 8 prize cards 1:10 and 10 prize cards 1:5) is for sure a performance of the outer-category too … especially as it was listed by yearling top talent NL09-1556482. Before this topper already won 1. Sens against 552 birds and 13. Interprov. La Souteraine against 8,625 birds … The 482 is also a son to ‘Bonte Verkerk’, this time paired to ‘Blauw Popeye’, a full sister to ‘New Favoriet’ and therefore daughter to ‘Popey’.

This weekend the ‘Popey’ dynasty again gets more impressive … crossed to the super lines of Verkerk, Bosua and Reynaert they performed really amazing last weeks. Jo and Florian Hendriks know they have a base they can count on … therefore new success is never far away!
