A documented AviRings Derby PRO performer with results across five listed races and two competition standings.

NL-2026-8324114 — a blue pigeon bred by Comb. Mantel, combining the PABLO–MISS SOFIA family with HARRY, Leo Heremans and the ANNA breeding line. This youngster is bred from SON PABLO, NL-2023-9563737, and DTR KRISTOF, NL-2021-1484013. The pedigree brings together documented one-loft racing connections, NPO-winning relatives and repeated breeding influence from ROYAL CAPE.

The paternal grandfather is PABLO, a full brother to MISS SOFIA. PABLO himself finished 176th in the Algarve Great Derby final against 2,026 pigeons over 491 km. He is bred from SALVADOR and ELLIS, linking this youngster directly to the same parental pairing behind the pedigree’s highlighted MISS SOFIA connection.

Paternal grandmother MATA HARI is a documented half-sister to ELIN, whose three victories provide substantial family evidence:

  • 1st Quievrain against 2,109 pigeons
  • 1st Duffel against 1,483 pigeons
  • 1st Tongeren against 1,028 pigeons

MATA HARI is also recorded as a granddaughter of HARRY. Her dam, J. Hooymans’ NL-2015-1850065, is listed as “Daughter Harry,” with DNA certification noted, and is the grandmother of a 1st Weert winner against 4,111 pigeons.

The maternal grandfather, KRISTOF, adds another close connection to winning stock. He is recorded as a brother to ELIN and a half-brother to VARDY, 1st NPO Issoudun against 3,319 pigeons. KRISTOF’s dam, DALIDA, is described as 100% Leo Heremans and inbred to OLYMP 003. ROYAL CAPE, sire of both KRISTOF and MATA HARI, therefore appears twice among this youngster’s great-grandparents.

The maternal grandmother, DOCHTER ANNABELLA, carries the documented inbred ANNA line, connecting to Eddy Janssens’ foundation breeding hen ANNA, described as a daughter of KANNIBAAL. Her parents add further one-loft credentials: ANAKIN is a brother to the 1st Ace Pigeon, Belgian Masters OLR 2013, while ANNABELLA is the mother of an 88th Victoria Falls final finisher.

A thoughtfully connected Mantel pedigree, with repeated winning-family influence and a blend of conventional and one-loft racing credentials.

Frits & Wytse Mantel have shown outstanding AviRings Derby strength, highlighted by 1st place in AviRings Derby PRO 2026 Race 3 from 255 km against 2,417 pigeons. Their record also includes 3rd place in the 2024 AviRings Derby Final Race from 521 km against 1,264 pigeons and 8th place in PRO 2026 Race 4 from 325 km against 2,313 pigeons. Across recent seasons they repeatedly placed pigeons in the top percentages, including 9th in PRO 2025 Race 5, 15th and 16th in PRO 2026 Race 2, and 19th in PRO 2025 Race 6. Competition results further underline consistency, with notable rankings such as 1st in the 2026 “lucky loser” competition, 30th in Champion of the Nations 2026, and 57th in the 2026 3x500 competition.
