16th October – What a turnout of calves this year, 24 out of the 31 entered, arrived on the Friday afternoon with their 11 handlers. Everyone was getting involved and helping out with the unloading, bedding up and settling the calves in – one big happy family. That evening the handlers enjoyed a demonstration so everyone knew exactly what the Judges would be expecting in the next 2 days. 17th October – The first day is always given over to Showmanship, a lot of pressure on some of our younger Future Golden Breeders. All the breeds except the Holsteins compete in the same class so big classes, over 40 in some meaning that they are divided into two. Class 1, the juniors, under 12 years, nearly 40 entered so there are 2 classes. In the first half, Izzy Phillips, just 8 years old came second. In the second half, Justina Langley came 10th and Hannah Garrett came 11th out of the 22 competing. Class 2 – Intermediate, aged between 13 – 15 years, not quite so many entered so 21 entries all in together. We are well represented in this class with Elissa Langley coming 2nd, George Thomas 8th, Shannon Dawes 9th, Charlotte Limond 10th and Margaret Thomas 17th. Class 3, the Seniors, makes them sound old but the competitors are between 16 and 20 years old. 39 entries, so the class is split again. In the first half Heather Limond is 5th and Michael Dawes is 7th. In the second half Andrew Thomas is 5th. The final Class 7 is for mature handlers between 21 and 26 years and Mike Moody represents the breed coming 10th out of 24 competitors. The breed competition was won by Andrew Thomas, who was awarded The Hilton Brooks Perpetual Challenge Cup and the new Future Golden Breeders Shield kindly donated by our President in 2015, Peter Richardson, both for this show and the calf classes at The Dairy Show just 10 days before. Thank you Peter, your interest and generosity is very much appreciated. 18th October – the calf classes take place on the Sunday and this year we were fortunate to have David Christophers judging the Guernseys classes who has much experience in showing as an adult and as a youngster and certainly had his work cut out today.
