Agree they get wise and probably more concerned with what’s going to hit them than the yearlings who don’t have that fear yet
I gave away 4 of my good older cocks once they were hit this year as I thought the same as you age was against them and strikes plus I was half a mind to go south so it made sense at the time

Nowt better than a yearling on fire Neil

Fingers crossed mate

Are you still planning on racing hens in 2025 Neil, or just cocks?
