2010 calf show


 

North West Open Calf Show 2010

 

The North West Club held their annual open calf show at Chelford on Saturday 4th September by kind permission of Frank Marshall & Co and generously sponsored by Les Wilson Agricultural Services of Nottingham. Forty-nine calves from sixteen individual herds were entered in the classes for homebred calves 12 months of age and under. Les Wilson was unable to attend and Steph Denny of Farmers Guardian stepped in at the last minute to present the prizes on his behalf.

Show judge Linda Morgan, Powys commented that every class was full of quality youngstock and awarded the Female and Overall Championship to Tanat Ebony an 8 months old black and white heifer by Bringlee Waldo out of Bringlee Welancee from new member Wyn Jones of Llanrhaeadr Um, Nr Oswestry. This calf showed exceptional promise for her age and should make a real name for herself on next season’s show circuit.
