MARLBANK OLR WINTER - SEASON 2026

3rd HS 7 - HANOVER 580KM (984 PIGEONS)

This auction is under proxy bidding.

Item condition: New

Description

A proven Marlbank OLR performer, 646 VPU 25 F recorded an outstanding 3rd place at Hotspot 7 from Hanover, approximately 580 km, competing against 984 pigeons — placing her in the top 0.31% of the entire field.

But the performance is only half the story.

646 comes from a powerful winner-rich family, with the pedigree featuring Tom Lock blood, a 5× winner, Car Winner, 2× Winner, Double Winner, R80,000 Super Cock and Derby Winner lines.

The pedigree also includes the highly regarded 19150 THU 02 “R80,000 Super Cock” and 1648 THU 03 “Double Winner” bloodlines documented in established South African pedigrees.

Paternal side

  • 3664 VPU 16 M
    • Described as father of 2× winner
    • His brother 0525 is described as one of the breeder's best pigeons.
  • 3872 NFS F
    • Tom Lock 5× winner
    • Car Winner
  • Further behind this are Tom Lock M – 5× Winner and Car Winner F.

So the paternal line contains multiple explicit winner references, including a 5× winner and Car Winner.

Maternal side also carries winners

There are several very strong references on the bottom half:

  • 16081 THU 18 ZA F — alias "2 X WINNER"
  • 1648 THU 03 SA F — alias "DOUBLE WINNER", with the pedigree also referring to a TRPF Derby winner
  • "R80000 SUPER COCK"
  • 0653 GRPA 10 ZA M — "BLUE GOLD", R8000 × R100 strain
  • 09409 OERF 11 ZA M — "BLUE MEDAL"
  • 5681 CYRIL 16 ZA F — alias "GOLDEN EYE", described as being linebred to important stock.

That gives 646 a pedigree with winner × winner influence on both sides, rather than relying on one isolated successful ancestor.

The combination is what makes her interesting:

3rd Marlbank Hanover Hotspot + 580 km + nearly 1,000 birds + winner-rich pedigree.

646 VPU 25 F — 3rd Marlbank OLR Hotspot 7, Hanover, approximately 580 km, against 984 pigeons. A proven one-loft race performer from a powerful winner-rich family, including 2 × winners, a 5 × winner, Car Winner and Double Winner bloodlines. A serious breeding prospect with an elite Marlbank performance already on her record.
