Lot 47 A 2023 YB From Chris Howse
Quality Check
The winners of the Central Southern Classic Bergerac 2013 are Chris Howse and David Parsons of Devizes, 1 st Open 1 st NW Section. “Jalta” now aptly named after Jane and Chris' five grandchildren who were all present at the family barbeque (Jay, Alfie, Layla, Toby and Archie) on race day when Jalta returned home. After what has been a difficult season, this is a delightful result. Jalta was the first of two birds to be clocked in on the day. This is the second time that Chris has been fortunate enough to win the Bergerac Classic. The last time was with “Windup” in 1999. This is Jalta's sixth cross channel race of the season. In his last Channel race with the West of England Combine from Saintes, he was the third bird home. Jalta's sire is the full brother to his NFC Certificate of Merit winner. The dam is a Dutch bred Champius Janssen. His nest mate won first section NFC Messac in 2011. Jalta is raced on the widowhood system. David regularly screens the race team for general health and specifically, canker, coccidia and worm eggs. All are given AviForte twice weekly.
We would like to offer Mr and Mrs Howse of Devizes our congratulations on winning 1st Open in the British Barcelona Club’s Fougeres National last weekend.
The race itself was consistent with all channel racing last weekend and proved a very difficult affair with Mr and Mrs Howes bird being one off only two birds with a speed over 1200 ypm!
