That is not good, 30% of the pigeons entered are missing.
I will not criticize Steve. He puts his heart into this race, and we have seen some great races and all had a lot of enjoyment.
I am going to remain positive, one bad toss does not destroy a season. And as I somewhat cynically said to a bloke, It improves our chances.

I agree with you Murray, once the birds are relaesed. We doont know what happens on the journey home, lets hope the other youngsters return. Its all about our ones recovering for the next trainer before racing starts.

Our pigeons will be fine. They had a two hour fly.
The ones that were out all day or overnight will be tired.
Steve cares for them very well. It's not over, it's just beginning.
