Exhibitors were welcomed on Royal Welsh Monday by soaring temperatures and glorious sunshine, where maiden heifer Dallyashes Twostep from Mrs Angela Hamilton, Carmarthenshire, was crowned Breed Champion on her first ever show outing. Judge Richard McInness, Norfolk, commented that his choice for champion was “superbly well-grown for her age, a good-bodied heifer”.
In the reserve spot was in-calf heifer Alcroft Glory from Miss S Cook, Cambridgeshire, and in the male standings it was Castleton Ken from CMB, JAW & DM Wright, Powys, which triumphed over Alcroft Gunslinger, also from Miss S Cook, to win the Male Championship.
After a three-year wait to return to the Royal Welsh Show, the commitment by the exhibitors to return and put their best animals forward for display was wonderful to see, and was greatly appreciated by the public, who had returned in their droves to the showground once again.
