A Huge Congratulations to Neal Holt for winning
1st Open SNFC National Billericay 414 miles 738 yards, 1,315 birds.
With his wonder Cock One For Lewis (The 37 Cock)
This cock has flown 3 times over 400 miles in 4 weeks and is furthest flying pigeon to ever win an inland National.
Its been a very nervy weekend after Neal contacted me on Friday afternoon with the possibility that he may have won. Everyone at Louella were absolutely thrilled when Neal messaged last night to confirm this super racer had clinched victory.
His previous accolades.
