A-2026-609-305 — Gratzer - Racing Pigeons, combining Prange and Slavko Kutlesa breeding with documented one-loft race results. A key close-family highlight is its sister A609-23-304, winner of 86th prize in the 607 km Ultimate Race at the AviRings Derby 2023. The pedigree brings together family performances over 500–607 km, alongside a Hot Spot victory against 1,098 pigeons.

The sire, A-2022-609-681, is bred from the Prange cock DV-2017-01233-1676 and the Slavko Kutlesa hen A-2020-319-560. The dam, A-2020-609-396, is also a daughter of DV-2017-01233-1676, paired with A-2018-609-23. Thus, the same Prange cock appears as both paternal and maternal grandfather, making him a central influence in this pedigree. His documented breeding record includes:

  • A609-25-318: 8th Ace Pigeon and 7th in the 3x500km-Cup at the AviRings Derby 2025. This bird is also explicitly recorded as a half-brother to the sire.
  • A609-23-302: a grandchild of the Prange cock, taking 2nd prize in the 607 km Ultimate Race at the AviRings Derby 2023.

Further close-family evidence comes through the sire: his half-brother “318-21” achieved 16th in the 520 km AviRings Derby final in 2021, while his half-sister A609-21-317 won 1st in Hot Spot 1 at Derby Halkidiki 2021, over 150 km against 1,098 pigeons.

Both grandmothers contribute their own recorded final-race performances. The Kutlesa-bred paternal grandmother A-2020-319-560 achieved 135th in the 510 km Talent Quatro final in 2020. Maternal grandmother A-2018-609-23, bred by Gratzer - Racing Pigeons from a Kurt Nöres cock and a Gratzer hen, placed 142nd in the 520 km Krajkova final at the Tatry Derby 2018. An appealing pedigree for buyers seeking concentrated Prange ancestry, Kutlesa influence and substantial one-loft racing evidence across the immediate family.

The Gratzer loft from Köflach, recorded in AviRings competition data as Werner Gratzer, has delivered standout performances in demanding derby competition. Highlights include 2nd place in AviRings Derby 2024 Race 3 over 250 km against 1,784 pigeons and 2nd place in the 2023 Ultimate 600 Race over 605 km against 305 pigeons. In AviRings Derby PRO 2025, AUT-2025-609-318 confirmed its class with 17th in Final Race 1, 29th in Final Race 3, 8th Ace Pigeon, 10th Average Speed and 7th in the 3x500 competition. The results show a loft capable of competing at the front from middle distance through tough 500–600 km derby races.
