Several Scottish-bred Holstein females have made their mark in the All-Britain Awards, announced last weekend, with the jointly owned Eastford Atomium Kiwi Red topping the intermediate two-year-old in milk.

Reserve inter-breed champion at the UK Dairy Day at Telford, and SuperHeifer at AgriScot, at Ingliston last November, this VG88-classified two-year-old is owned by the ladies of the Lawrie and Yates family – Caroline and Sheila from Sandyford from East Logan, Castle Douglas, respectively.

This big girl also went on to stand All-Britain reserve overall Red and White with honourable mention in the same section going to another well-known Scottish cow in the shape of Parkend Director Starlet Red, from Brian Weatherup and son Brian, Crossgates, Fife.

There was more success to come for the Brian and Michael Yates' Holstein herd too, when Logan Sid Edie collected an honourable mention in the five-yer-old in milk section, having stood supreme dairy at Dumfries last year.

The Lairds from Blythbridge, West Linton, were again in the top tickets too, winning the reserve three-year-old in milk and the runner-up mature cow title. Their reserve senior three-year-old, shown by Alistair and Kathleen, son Colin and his wife Izzy, and daughter Ann, was La Croisiere Infinity, which stood first in her class at the Highand last year.

Runner up mature cow was the family's Illens Atwood Australia, a former supreme winner here and SuperCow at AgriScot and last year's inter-breed senior winner at UK Dairy Day.
