THAMES NATIONAL MESSAC OPEN RACE

In 2019, We Paid Out £1,000 In Prize Money + An Extra £500 For Futurity & £250 For Gold Ring + £789 In Pools, Totalling £2,539!

2019 Winner: C&J Howse


2020

Unfortunately due to further Covid-19 restrictions that have been put in place, it is very disappointing for all, but we have had to make the decision to cancel our Thames National Messac/Falaise Open Race which was due to take place in September 2020.
The prize money set aside from our Breeder/Buyer race (£500) & Gold Ring race (£200) which was to be awarded to the highest velocity clocked breeder/buyer and gold ring pigeon at the open race will instead roll over to a yearling race at the BICC in 2021 (this race will be chosen nearer the time).
The funds raised from our Messac Auction which took place earlier on this year to help fund the running costs of the race will instead be used to help fund the open race in 2021. Thanks all for your support.
