At the end of the day there was a tremendous line up of sheep in the interbreed section making it a very difficult task for judge Rob Rennie from Kelso, Scotland. Coming out on top in the mighty line up was Allen Shortt’s and Samantha Allen’s powerful Blue Texel ewe. This super ewe was a daughter of the highly admired 12,000gns Hackney Classy.
