Race now into third day, and nothing yet, but flying at these distances with a small team, you get more down than up, and trying to breed birds for the future is the challenge if you are distance minded. That's why I am so glad Dave got a result.

Is this the Gold Cup race Albert? Birds were clocked in the 2nd morning.
Yes King it was the Gold Cup. There was 73 birds clocked on the second day, and 25 clocked on the third day down to a velocity of 420 to fill the result. In Scotland the race closes with a 400 velocity. When I said nothing yet I was answering Trev, when he asked me how I got on, hope that clears that point up. I should have made that clearer by using the quote, sorry about that King.
