They already said about Melun of July 4 that such a result had never been made (the Comb Maegh- 
AS won in ZAV 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 14, 18 and 19 against 718 pigeons) all superlatives fell short after the race that followed from Sermaine on July 11th. Most heard cries. "Never shown, "Unbelievable", "Not normal,  "Unmatchable. 

As acts speak louder then words:  

Yearlings: 

Only 7 yearlings were put by the Comb Ad and Roger and they won against 669 pigeons: 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11. That's 6 of the 7. The 7th won 40th prize.

Old in ZAV:

No less than 841 old birds started in combine “ZAV”: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 11, 13, 17 etc (14/16). The first pigeon flew no less than 12 minutes ahead on all other lofts, especially from super men like Vercammen and Geerinckx. 

Old in Overkoepeling:

In the combine “Overkoepeling” with the “Grensverbond“ no less than 2,071 pigeons flew: there the champion birds of Schaerlaeckens won: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 22, 26 and so on. Here too, the first pigeons flew minutes ahead. The winners with yearlings and old ones are different pigeons!

Young birds           

And as if it couldn't stop, the boy also won the 1st prize against 1,811 boys. Four in the first 26 with 18. Who in the whole of Belgium comes anywhere near Dutch Ad and his companion?
