A strong entry of 64 head of Illawarras paraded before Damen Phillips, “Sunny View” Toowoomba under a “suspicious” cloudy morning, clearing up to a more pleasant afternoon. The first class of day, a Children’s under 14 years parading an under 18 months old heifer gave Damen an unexpected challenge to commence his day, when 21 entries paraded. This was followed by the first of the Judging classes, Heifer under 12 months which had 15 entries.
Interest in the showing was enhanced with Jock Johnston arriving with 6 heifers in his truck. Two of these heifers were previously sold to Cherie Davis and were being delivered. The other 4 are to be sold at auction in an ALL-BREEDS sale at next year’s 100 Year Malanda Show. Two of these heifers came from the Riverwood Stud of the Ledger Family. Success of this consignment was significant as a perusal of results listed below. One of the Ledger heifers was a yearling daughter of Riverwood Madam, the high testing Butterfat Champion at 2013 Brisbane Show. This heifer won the yearling heifer class of 15, and went on to be Reserve Champion Junior Heifer.
It is also interesting to note that Jondene Dainty 116, exhibited by Cherie Davis, won Junior Champion Heifer, while her maternal sister, Jondene Dainty 111 was Intermediate Champion, exhibited by Eachamvale. This heifer, along with the winner of the 2 – 2 ½ yr dry class, Jondene Thelma 50 were purchased from Jondene in 2013.
