NL-2026-8527810 — 29th in Avirings Derby Final I against 1,790 pigeons over 501 km. Bred by Team Hoogeveen, this blue pigeon combines its own documented one-loft race performance with a pedigree bringing together Mike Ganus breeding, THOMAS 6, ROMARIO, Marc & Geert Pollin and the CYRUS family.
Competing for Team de Hoogh-Hoogeveen, it also recorded 138th in the Avirings Derby semi-final against 2,206 pigeons over 401 km. These results are backed by a dam with a notable Golden Algarve final placing and a sire whose offspring and grandchildren have performed across several one-loft competitions.
The sire is TOM JUNIOR, RO-2022-1210084, bred by Ariciu Catalin. In addition to the pigeon offered here, he is the father of a pigeon placed 16th in the Enduro Challenge Superstar OLR against 531 pigeons over 725 km. His breeding record also includes grandchildren winning 1st in the Derby Moldova OLR final over 502 km and 1st in the Derby Brasov OLR final over 450 km.
TOM JUNIOR is bred from JUNIOR, IHU 19-S141939, recorded as 100% Mike Ganus, and DAUGHTER THOMAS 6. JUNIOR is a son of MILLION DOLLAR 15 and SILVER & LACE, 6th Ace Pigeon at Victoria Falls OLR. DAUGHTER THOMAS 6 is bred directly from THOMAS 6, winner of the 2018 Golden Algarve OLR final, paired to GOLDEN JEWELS, explicitly recorded as a daughter of ROMARIO. THOMAS 6 and SILVER & LACE are therefore direct great-grandparents of the auction pigeon.
The dam is ZUUR, NL-2024-8266715, winner of 21st in the 2024 Golden Algarve final in Portugal. Bred by Team Hoogeveen, she is a daughter of TOUCH OF GOLD, bred by Marc & Geert Pollin, and CAITHLYN, bred by Gebr. Hoogeveen. TOUCH OF GOLD brings together NESTBROTHER JOE, described as a foundation breeder at the Pollin loft, and DAUGHTER DUYVERTJE. CAITHLYN is a direct daughter of CYRUS, NL-2007-1513778, paired to a daughter of DIABLO bred by W. & F. Ebben.
A documented 501 km final performer with one-loft racing results on both sides of the pedigree—combining its own Avirings placing with its dam’s Golden Algarve performance and its sire’s record of producing successful descendants.
