Recently, the Bopina International Came to an end, Eddie Fortetson won the national championship, and coincidentally, Eddie Forteson's friend Hugo Batenberg won the national runner-up. A pair of friends won the championship and runner-up respectively, you and I share the honor of winning the award, what a celebration on the field!
This is not the first time such a rare thing has happened. Eddie Forteson has known his friend Hugo Battenberg for many years, and it was under Hugo Battenberg that he began to focus on pigeon racing in 2012. They help each other when domesticating racing pigeons, and every season some of the breeding and eggs of the pigeons in Batenberg are taken to the Eddie loft and the hatched offspring are tested in different races. The loft of Eddie Fortesson is also a satellite loft of Batenberg and most of the pigeons in the loft are of Battenberg descent. Eddie Fortetson won the 1st International Saint-Vincent 2019, and the winner pigeon "Ville" was hugo Batenberg, the 2018 winner of the 1st Nat. Agen yearlings, and his friend Batenberg was also instrumental.
2022 Bopina Dutch National Champion Myers NL20-1481285
Eddie Forteson led Miles to a 1st Nat. Bopina Netherlands 3,805 p. The pigeon was clocked on Sunday at 07:53 CEST after a distance of 1021.55 km and an average velocity of 1005.48 m/min, winning a 1st Nat. Netherlands against 3,805 p. and a 2nd international total of 12,904 p. The winner also finished 285th Nat. Narbonne in the yearlings last year.
The father of the winner Myers was Mates, the son of 1st International 1st St. Ville in Saint-Vitsien 2019. Her mother is "Miss Ukra" from Van den Berger and from the national runner-up "Energy Kid" X 2017 Bopigna International Champion "Leanne Sweet".
You can help others win, and you can win even more! Hugo Batenberg won the 2nd National/International 3rd Place in the Netherlands at Perpignan. This is equivalent to Batenberg's pigeon breed winning the national champion and runner-up of Perpignan, and the extraordinary quality is impressive!
The 2nd nat. Bopigna from Batenberg is a hen, ring NL20-1479870, the son of the 2013 Barcelona International Champion New Glory paired with the 2018 Barcelona National Champion Barcelona Britta; The mother is the straight daughter of the 2018 Barcelona International Champion "Lloyd" paired with the 2015 Barcelona International Champion "Special Straight Woman". In short, the winning pigeons were a combination of four outstanding pedigrees of 1st national Barcelona pigeons (3 of which were also international winners).
Such a noble bloodline can only appear in Batenbergschacher. Only because Batenberg has a unique collection of marathon winners, including "New Glory", "Special One", "Jeff", "Queen of the Night", "Sumeric Rhymeria" and so on.
Eddie Fortesson and his friend Batenberg, one 1st and one runner-up, one winner and one male and one female. Interestingly, after the race, Eddie's first pigeon was named "Eddie" by Nicholas and the runner-up pigeon from Hugo was named "Yana" (the name of Nicholas's wife). Eddie will be transferred to Hugo's breeding loft to breed with the runner-up pigeon Jana, and the results of the pairing are curious. Their first offspring will also be available in PIPA, so let's wait and see!
