Colin Hutchings does it again….and again…..

Colin Hutchings was back on top at the Royal Cornwall Show last week, sweeping the board with his Limousin and Aberdeen Angus cattle.

After last year’s tremendous successes – he won 15 interbreed championships – Colin returned to the top with his Limousin bull Goldies Trophy. By Leo and out of Giroflee, this six-year old bull now heads to the Three Counties Show.

Colin also scooped the Aberdeen Angus champion and reserve spots, with the familiar pairing that is Logie Daredevil and Kingsbrompton Miss Ethel. as well as the interbreed pairs. “I’m chuffed to bits and am very excited to be judging the Angus classes at the Highland Show later this month.”

Reserve interbreed champion was Boddington Estates’ Simmental bull Sterling Rochester. Shown by stockman Jimmy McMillan, this three year-old heads to the Highland, Royal, Yorkshire and Royal Welsh Shows later in the year. In the dairy classes Jenny and Michael Colwell enjoyed similar success, taking the interbreed title and reserve interbreed pairs with their Jerseys. Their seven year-old cow Quintrell PJSM Ultramarine is giving 35kg and heads to the Royal Show next.

Taking the reserve spot was Mikali and Excellence Holsteins’ four year-old cow Aldingham Stormatic Clarissa ET. Shown by herd manager Douglas Hume, this second calver is giving 50kg and also heads to the Royal Show in July.

Ivan Mortimore’s shearling Scotch Black-Faced ram won the sheep championship on his first outing. Shown by son Gordon Mortimore, the ram was described as a superb animal by judge Michael Hackling. “He’s a good strong ram and beautifully turned out.” A Poll Dorset ram took the reserve prize for father and son team Colin and Tom Clarke, from Colebrooke, Devon.
