Mark Trinder – One of Yorkshire’s finest, and a good honest guy to go with it. A man
always looking for the best and this shows in his superb results. Over the last four years, this
loft racing against quality opposition has won 50 x 1st club, 13 x 1st Federations, 1st Open
NEPC, 2 x 1st Open Northern Classic and 1st Sec MNFC, this flying by himself and working
every day.
The youngster given by Mark is superbly bred, a Blue Hen GB 25 Z 35805 – This is a super
young hen, the very best of the Hereman / Ceuster, Dirk Van Den Bulck and the Jan Mee’s of
Alfie Hawthorne. Her sire is “Rocky’s Dream Boy” bred by Alfie Hawthorne, a half-brother to
“Jay” 2nd in the middle-distance Titan Games 2023. Dream Boy is from Rocky and the full
sister to “IGOR” 1st World Best Pigeon FCI Short Distance 2021.
The dam of 35805 in Marks words is, arguably his best stock hen, when you look at her
breeding you can see why. Named “Blue Marauder” her sire the “Red Marauder” the fantastic
Van Den Bulck cock bred by Paul Beaumont and son of “Donker Leo”. The mother of blue
marauder is “Safier 131” a winner of 2 x 1sts herself and daughter to “Birthday Boy” son of
Brian Johnson’s “Safier Pair”, purchased by Dave Roberts and finally went to Stewart
Knowles, absolute class cock that has left a dynasty of winners. Another great bird for
someone looking to improve their stock loft, lucky the purchaser of lot 30.
