After the atrocious weather in 2012 ,the Stithians Show near Truro in Cornwall had a beautiful day for this years show and with 5 exhibitors a good turnout for Richard Emm to judge.
Class 1 for heifers born after 1/8/12 drew 5 calves with the Andante calf Trewey Jackie, of Brian and Sheila Adams standing top and beating her stablemate for only the second time this summer.
