Crimson Lady takes overall Interbreed title at Tinahely

The August Bank holiday is always one we never mind getting up at 5am for, as it’s Tinahely Show. The second largest show of the year always turns out a great display of cattle throughout and we look forward to catching up with friends and customers at it.

We had a fantastic days showing with our team of 10 cattle winning 11 red rosettes, as well as collecting a number of other awards.

With the South Eastern Club autumn calf finals moving to Tinahely for the first time we brought forward a strong team of calves culminating in Clonagh cattle winning all four calf finals.

In the yearling bull class our champion was Clonagh Diamond Rock, a Banwy T-Rex son out of a Dovefields Gallant daughter Clonagh Temptation ET. He was later tapped forward as reserve breed champion. Reserve to him was Clonagh Dizzy Rascal again by T-Rex out of a Raceview King daughter, Clonagh Tizzy Edel ET.
