The federations second Championship Race 2010 was from Messac we held over on Saturday and the birds were liberated on Sunday 20th June, some 291 birds were liberated at 7.00am in a North Wind in France, again the wind would stay in the North across the channel and in England, monitoring the national flying club times you could easily work out this would be a tough race, but again all 3 organizations reported excellent returns, topping our federation is the partnership of Mr&Mrs Ken Salt who race with Horsley Woodhouse, the big money winners were Mr&Mrs Paul Todd racing with Derby Premier, their pigeon won 4th federation pooled all the way through winning £385.00, well done.
