NL-2026-8324106 is a blue hen bred by Comb. Mantel, combining a paternal family with notable one-loft race results and the NPO-winning Suarez family of Henk Marsman. She is a daughter of Prince Alonso and Dcht.Suarez, and a granddaughter of Alonso, Queen Vardy, Suarez and Dochter Dafne.S.

Her sire’s close relatives provide a major selling point. Prince Alonso is a half-brother to Alexio, 7th in the 505 km Algarve Golden Race final in 2022 against 3,622 pigeons, and to the pigeon placed 2nd in the 502 km AS Greece OLR Extra Final in 2024. These results are supported by both paternal grandparents: Alonso, himself 1st Weert against 2,227 pigeons, is Alexio’s father; Queen Vardy is the mother of the AS Greece Extra Final runner-up.

Queen Vardy adds a direct pairing of NPO winners to the pedigree. She is a daughter of Vardy, 1st NPO Issoudun, and Starling, 1st NPO Troyes, the latter bred by Gebr. Leideman A&B. The offered hen is therefore a great-granddaughter of both winners.

The maternal side is anchored by Suarez, NL-2014-1508357. This Henk Marsman cock won 1st NPO Chateauroux against 2,809 pigeons and 7th NPO Souppes s/L. against 6,892 pigeons. The offered hen is his granddaughter through his daughter Dcht.Suarez. Her maternal grandmother, Dochter Dafne.S, bred by Peter Crans, is the mother of a performer placed 8th NPO Troyes against 7,845 pigeons.

Further depth comes through great-grandparents Olympic Amador, Timwoman—recorded as inbred Leonardo/Tinkelbel—and Dafne S. An appealing pedigree bringing together documented NPO-winning ancestry, proven breeding results and close paternal relatives successful in demanding one-loft finals.

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.
