Horsham Racing Pigeon Club’s 2021 season is nearing completion with two or possibly three weekends remaining.
John Muszkieta leads 2021 championship standings, but Leigh Arnott recorded a commanding win in a 230-kilometre Bannockburn race at the weekend.
Pigeons flew into a north-westerly breeze up to 22kmh resulting in the entry of 313 racing pigeons averaging a relatively slow time.
The leading pigeon arrived home after a 4.59-hour flight.
