Male and Breed Champion Elgany Elgar is sired by Lordswood Oliver, a bull bred by neighbouring breeder James Brain, who also presented Elgar for show on behalf of Mr Forster.

In a competitive female section, it was the maiden heifer Oldington Bakewell - sired by Templar Jethro (VG86) and out of Oldington Barbie (VG86) - which claimed the Female Championship and placed Reserve Breed Champion for the Pennington family, who also took first place in the pairs class.
