On a glorious spring day when maybe we would have preferred for it to be raining cats & dogs Heath Williams, Treeton, Meningie, found some “cracking good cows” when he judged the Ilawarra classes paraded by 8 exhibitors at the 100th Murray Bridge Show on September 22nd, 2018.
He then joined other breed judges for the Interbreed classes, and was selected to judge the Junior Handler aged 12-14 years.
Below Judge Heath Williams contemplates his first class for the day.
