Despite some relatively dry weather for the early morning judging, the heavens opened by lunch-time for the overall champion of champions at Fife Show where the top accolade was presented to the horse leader – a three-year-old Appaloosa gelding from Carolyn Fletcher, Thornlea, Bo'ness.
IT WAS the Holstein Friesian champion that took the supreme accolade at a very wet and muddy Stonehouse Show, last weekend, where stock and crowd attendance figures were down on the year due to the heavy rainfall in the week leading up to the show.
AT THEIR annual Limousin show and sale, last week, Caledonian Marts had 43 cattle forward for judging by Philip Goodwin, general manager of sponsors, Wishaw Abattoir Ltd.
