The sire is a brother to Miss Maurice, first Open Knockout Winner of the SAMDPR and best bird over five Hotspots and the Final combined. The dam is 100% Van Ouwerkerk / Dekkers, a daughter of two top racers at that loft, bred for the stock loft — the same family Star Boy himself came from.
From the O’Donnell card: Brother to Miss Maurice crossed back onto pure Van Ouwerkerk / Dekkers
The Sire — a brother to Miss Maurice
By Star Boy out of the mother of Miss Maurice
Miss Maurice won the Knockout in the South Africa Million Dollar Race 2020, was best bird over five Hotspots and the Final combined, and was purchased by Lendos Family Lofts in the USA for $70,000. She has since bred a winner of an OLR in Mexico and 5th in the Evolution Final OLR over 365 miles in the USA.
Star Boy (B16-6037050) — the O’Donnell foundation cock, father to Miss Maurice (SAMDPR 2020 Knockout Winner), Miss Debbie (1st Pattaya International OLR) and Sapsan (co-winner, Algarve Golden Race). Sire and grandsire to winners across Europe, America, Canada, Mexico, China and Thailand. He now stands at Ganus Family Lofts in the USA.
B16-6037045 — the mother of Miss Maurice and a direct daughter of Polo Barcelona, National Ace Pigeon from Barcelona at 1,100km three years running: 2017, 2018 and 2019.
In short: the sire line is the O’Donnell foundation, and it is the reason this family sells worldwide.
The Dam — B16-6037016
100% Van Ouwerkerk / Dekkers
A daughter of two top racers at Van Ouwerkerk / Dekkers, bred for the stock loft. Her sire B12-6198298 was a winner of many top prizes from international races; her dam B11-6281668 was also a top racer at the loft in international racing.
Maurice’s note: "100% Van Ouwerkerk / Dekkers. The most consistent loft in Belgium in international racing, as has been proven with Star Boy breeding."
