Pigeon notes by Homer

ALAN Darragh had a very strong card in the final YB Nat flown from Rosscarbery, he had the top four places in the Cullybackey HPS and the first bird topped Mid Antrim Combine and the NIPA Sect B. His Blue cock was timed at 13.01hrs flying 253 miles for velocity 1480. Surgenor Bros of Kells & Dist were next best recording a best ever young bird season and Lexi Mullan had 1st Harryville having timed at 13.06hrs flying 254 miles.
