Rasbull Lofts believe that One Loft Races/Auctions are a great way to improve your breeding stock and also to test the youngsters on an even footing against some of the best fanciers in the world.

For the 2012 season, we have set up a syndicate to compete for the first prize of £50,000 in the Somerset One Loft race! For more information see the link below.

We have entered the Europa Classic for the last 3 seasons.

In 2009 we only had one return from the final race to record 422nd. The stock team was totally replaced and a new dynasty of pigeons was introduced into the loft.

In 2010 we sent 3 and all 3 once again made the final result with results of 178th, 403rd and 565th. We were quite disappointed with this as they had achieved considerable success in the training and hotspots winning 1st, 5th, 9th, 11th, 12th, 13th, 20th, 30th, 35th, 37th and 54th.

2011 saw 5 entries sent to the Europa Classic and 4 started the training and all 4 made the final race once again. The Final race turned out to be a disaster with only 3 out of the 501 birds coming on the night. However, we once again improved in our performances in this race series. We took 25th, 35th and 36th in 3 separate Hotspots. In the daily training the birds were out of this world with the 4 of them competing on average against 600 birds:- 1st, 2nd, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 6th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 11th, 16th, 17th, 19th, 19th, 19th, 19th, 25th, 26th, 27th, 29th, 30th, 30th, 31st, 32nd, 34th, 35th, 35th, 36th, 36th, 37th, 38th, 39th, 44th, 48th and 49th.

The improvement over the last 3 years is there for all to see. We are satisfied we have made big leaps forward in terms of establishing a loft capable of producing winning pigeons. Please compare the graphs and notice the amount of results in the top 50 this year compared to our first year! A remarkable improvement I believe in just three short years being back in the sport!

2012 will see Rasbull Lofts entering the Somerset One Loft Race. We hope the birds do us proud once again!
