Evert Steenis
NL-2026-8519554 (NL-2026-F1093-03)
NL-2026-8519554 – bred by Evert Steenis, combining the COSTELLO and VALITAS families with the outstanding racer ELIZABETH. This pigeon brings together Chris Hebberecht ancestry, R.A. Bakker & Zn’s concentrated VALITAS breeding and a maternal line with impressive results against large fields.
The maternal grandmother is ELIZABETH, NL-2014-3437979, whose documented performances include:
- 1st St Quentin against 10,970 pigeons
- 2nd St Quentin against 7,407 pigeons
- 10th Quievrain against 3,288 pigeons
- 22nd Quievrain against 12,802 pigeons
The mother, NL-2011-1513199, is a direct daughter of ELIZABETH paired to De 56, NL-2011-1513156. Raced only as a youngster, De 56 recorded four victories: 1st Pommeroeul against 377, 1st St Quentin against 358, 1st Morlincourt against 303 and 1st Nanteuil against 233 pigeons. ELIZABETH herself was bred from the Leo Heremans-bred pair GP Olympiade 904 and Excellenta, giving the offered pigeon a clearly documented Heremans connection through its maternal grandmother.
The sire is NL-2021-1032845, “Grandchild COSTELLO,” bred by R.A. Bakker & Zn. His father, BE-2019-4228193, is a direct son of Chris Hebberecht’s COSTELLO, BE-2001-4094676, described in the pedigree as a super breeder. COSTELLO is therefore a great-grandfather of the offered pigeon. This branch also includes WITOOGSKE, a daughter of Elvis.
The sire’s mother, NL-2020-1339151, “Inbred VALITAS,” was bred from a son of VALITAS paired to a daughter of VALITAS. This concentrates the influence of the racer and breeder credited in the pedigree with four top-10 NPO long-distance results.
A compelling pedigree combination: concentrated VALITAS ancestry and Hebberecht breeding on the paternal side, matched with ELIZABETH’s large-field performances and De 56’s four wins on the maternal side.
