GEGATO CONQUERS THE NORTH : (l-r Michael Villera, handler Levi Camus, Marlon, Boy Gegato & Engr. Art Gaspar) LOYAL THUNDERBIRD-USER Reigning International Derby champion Boy Gegato shocked the cockers of Pangasinan, La Union and Ilocos with a sterling 5-0 win-loss performance for a solo championship finish in last Saturday's Ventura Cokpit Arena's P.5M 2nd Anniversary one-day 5-Cock Derby in San Carlos City. Unleashing his feared JVG Gilmore-Roundhead aces, Gegato's BG HIGH MOUNTAIN entry (in partnership with Engr. Gaspar) ruled over entries Yanyan of E. Buenafe; AMU; HGS of Hermie Saayso; JJ Guide and house bet Jokers Wild. The victory came as a big surprise considering the birds came all the way from Bacolod, arriving in Manila on Thursday morning and then brought to Pangasinan at 11:00 p.m. for a 4-hour trip to Pangasinan.

MASBATEÑO TANDEM WINS 1ST BAKBAKAN CROWN FOR RGBA

Ironically a tandem of Masbateños with their rooster farm situated in Antipolo City, finally gives the mighty Rizal Gamefowl Breeders Association their first-ever Bakbakan championship by capturing the 3,528-entry 35M 2010 Bakbakan 10-Stag National Derby hosted by the National Federation of Gamefowl Breeders, The grand finals was held at the Araneta Coliseum last Saturday – December 4.

After closing just a half-point shy last year to bring home a Bakbakan trophy for the RGBA when they scored 9 points each in their two entries for a total of 18 wins and 2 losses, Masbateños Engr. Ralph Daigo & Dr. Ronnie Magbalon with partner Gerry Garovillas made sure they bring home the bacon this year by scoring a dizzying 9 win & 1 draw in its first entry Grand Richelle-1 and 10 perfect wins on its other entry Grand Richelle-2, thereby posting a total of 19 wins & 1 draw out of 20 matches to earn a share of the title with Quezon province chief executive Gov. Jayjay Suarez (Bondoc Peninsula).

Rey Briones…another Masbateño finished with 9 wins and 1 loss.

Grand Richelle, like last year, again fielded an all-bulik line-up out of breeding stocks from Gengen Arayata of Cavite who won the Bakbakan in 2007 with the buliks that were originally acquired from the late Cong. Danilo Lagbas of Cagayan de Oro.

The bulik of Grand Richelle which kept the crowd shaking their heads in disbelief are so good that they might end up also winning the 40M Rambulan Derby wherein the champion triumvirate’s two other entries have yet to lose a fight with 6 perfect points apiece going into the finals next week.

RGBA which contributed more than 200 entries to this year’s Bakbakan made their presence felt with a bang with 12 entries (six 6-pointers and six with 5.5 points) entering the grand finals.

Four of RGBA’s members Joey Sy with Tony King (Pitviper Vandog); Rey Briones (Spartans RB 9); lady cocker Osang dela Cruz (GQ Mountain Eagle) and the trio of Rodel Ongmanchi, Charlie Chan & Jesry Palmares (RGBA JPCC RJR Moncada 2) finished with 9 points each.

“Back-to-back kami gamit ang Bexan”, Ronald Barandino ng Basilan

Muli na naman pinag-usapan ang Basilan, matapos na ang kanilang ipinagmamalaking sabungero at gamefowl breeder na si Ronald Baradino ng Basilan ay solong pinagharian ang San Juan Coliseum 6-Stag Anniversary Derby noong ika-15 ng Setyembre na sinundan pa ng 9 na panalo at 1 talo noong Septyember 16 sa 2010 Stagfest 5-Stag Derby ng Roligon Mega Cockpit.

Gamit ang mga Sweater Crosses na kanyang napalabas mula sa mga breeding stocks na galing sa kinikilalang master breeder na si Atty. Jun Mendoza, dinomina ni Barandino ang labanan.

“Malayo ang biyahe mula Basilan, pero nananatiling kondisyon at matatag ang mga manok basta alaga sila sa Thunderbird Bexan-XP”, pahayag ni Barandino.

Ang Thunderbird BEXAN XP ay ang kauna-unahang injectable B-complex vitamins na pinatibay ng liver extract na mayaman sa Vit. B12 at folic acid para sa matinding lakas-panlaban. Ang LIVER EXTRACT ay para sa kondisyon ng dugo, samantalang ang FOLIC ACID naman ay para sa pagiging handa at listo ng manok sa aktuwal na laban.

Ang Thunderbird Bexan-XP ay ini-ineksiyon sa pecho (pectoral muscles) ng mga manok na gagamitin sa breeding. Turukan sila ng 0.25 mL, 2 beses sa isang linggo, sa pagitan ng 3 araw.

Ang Thunderbird BEXAN XP ay doble ang B12 na tumutulong ng malaki sa maayos na sirkulasyon ng dugo na nagreresulta sa pamumula ng mukha, palong at lambi na siyang porma ng isang manok-panabong na nakakondisyon
