SU 25-3981 “Crosshill 981” winner of 30^th Grand Final Arbroath 2025 from 315 miles and 53^rd Ace Pigeon for the brilliant John Smart of Crosshill Lofts. John and his pigeons are no strangers to success in the OLR over recent seasons having won more than his fair share.  3981 and the nest mate 3982 both completed the full programme, which considering there was only 78 home from Arbroath at the time is an impressive statistic. This surely underlines the worth these two nest mates will have in any breeding loft that particularly favours one loft racing as the parents are both OLR pigeons as well.
