SU 24 L6935 Blue “Crosshill 935” winner of 76th Open Grand Final and he was also
100th Hotspot 1, 269th Hotspot 2, 97th Hotspot 3 and 102nd Semi-Final. This is the
third pigeon bred by John and William Smart of Crosshill Lofts. Scotland and he is
the same way bred as “Crosshill Rose” the winner of 1st Grand Final POTP 2024.
John believes this pigeon would be an asset to any stock loft for future breeding as he
has various relatives already in their own breeding lofts and this despite the parents
being relatively new to the lofts breeding programme.
This partnership has produced the unique ‘Double’ by not only winning 1st Final
Race POTP 2024 from Vire, but also winning the Grand Final POTP 2023 with
Crosshill Wingman from Guernsey.
The Crosshill Lofts were used to winning at club, Fed and National level but in 2020
they decided to give one loft racing a try and in 4 short years their rise to success has
been phenomenal and to date they have won:
1st Semi-final WDW in 2020
8th POTP 2022
15th Kalimanci Super Derby 2022
15th Extra Final Balkanic Fair Play Race
1st Grand Final POTP 2023
4th Grand Final WDW 2023
Up until September 2024 they have won 1st, 7th, 16th and 23rd Grand Final POTP as
well as 3rd, 5th Ace Pigeons and they have also won 7th Grand Final Welsh Elite
OLR.
