Well done to all those in the result.
It will be interesting to see how much they sell for being as anyone of those first 10 could probably have been first, just down to which one trapped first.

Well Koopman's will fetch the most i imagine

Yes he's the winner but he's also the biggest name amongst those who are very high up

Koopman recently sold most of his pigeons in an auction for 4.1 Million € seems like the end of an era with him winning this OLR

It was certainly a marvellous way to bring to an end a glittering career

I think he'll still be retaining a OLR interest though

The next part of his sale starts on 3rd February - these being the Marathon pigeons
