Tomorrow I'm taking two youngsters to Bendigo to go to the Meadow OLR in Melbourne.
Devo and I are going halves in the two. I've never done it before, but with club racing being perhaps a bit awkward this year, I've got pigeons in some money races instead.
You've got to be in to win. Some good money on offer too.
One is out of the Zillion Baby that I got from D. Cox. Lovely smokey blue bar. I've named it Devo's Zillion.
The other one is a Chequer pied Thone' x Heremans x Gaby. Classy youngster. It's called Free Beer. Because nothing goes faster than free beer..... :D
Greetings from the land down under. :D

Thanks Buster.
It's my first time entering a One Loft Race. I know it's a bit of a lottery, but I have some pretty good ammunition here, and it's a modest risk against, possibly, a lovely return! :D :D :D
Also its great that Devo has got involved too. We've all been on this forum for a long time, and I think it's wonderful that I have an interest in my throw at the stumps.
They are really lovely babies. The photos don't do them credit.
I've put a lot of effort into raising that round of babies. They are all very good and I think I have picked the best two.
You need to send the very best you've got to these races. The competition is tough. They've got the One Loft Race thing pretty well sorted out down here.
