7th Open is SU24L6959 and entered by John Smart.  John is never far away in the one loft races he competes in and heres another example.  Just check the breeding and its easy to see why.

The sire of this lot is “Crosshill Ace” Who himself was Ace pigeon in the 2015 RPRA one loft race by a clear 12 minutes.  The main pigeon in Johns loft and everything that comes from him either wins or breeds winners.

The dam of this special lot is “Crosshill Silk” a fabulous breeding hen that has already bred 1st semi final in the wdw one loft race (like breeds like).

She is also the half sister of 1st open SNFC gold cup race 516 miles.

When John Smart was recently  asked if he would sell a 2025 YB off Crosshill Ace >>>>

He replied “We won’t ever sell anything from him. Everything he now breeds from 2025 onwards, and everything we currently have in our loft direct from him will never be raced or sold”

so this could be your last opportunity to get one off him
