CATTLE<br />
BEEF CATTLE<br />
METHOD OF ACCEPTING ENTRIES<br />
Due to the heavy demand for stalling accommodation, exhibitors will be limited to booking a<br />
maximum number of 8 stalls for beef cattle. Should exhibitors also have entries in the dairy<br />
section, the overall maximum will be 10 stalls (beef/dairy). It is not permissible for exhibitors to<br />
transfer stalls which they had originally booked, but no longer require, to another exhibitor.<br />
Exhibitors should note that they are not permitted to make entries from the same herd<br />
under different names or joint names.<br />
Exhibitors must book the number of stalls which they wish to use during the <strong>Show</strong> and the Stalling<br />
Fee(s) will be non-refundable but they may enter as many animals as they wish at a much<br />
lower non-refundable Entry Fee. Stall bookings and details of animals, together with Stalling<br />
and Entry Fee(s) must be received no later than Friday 18th March. If at this date more stalls are<br />
booked than the available capacity, exhibitors will be advised of any necessary reduction in Stalls<br />
and in such instances only will a refund be made of Stalling Fees. Exhibitors may not bring to the<br />
<strong>Show</strong> more animals than the number of stalls allocated.<br />
Exhibitors in all breeds should note that separate stalls must be reserved for calves at foot.<br />
loose Boxes will not be available for cattle.<br />
In all classes for Cows in calf or Cows or Heifers in calf, the animal must calve before 31st<br />
December 2010 if entered in a Beef Breed. The prize money may be withheld until the Breed<br />
Society’s notification of acceptance of calf for registration or a Veterinary Surgeon’s Certificate is<br />
received to the effect that the animal has calved within the stipulated time.<br />
All bulls of two years of age and over must be certified to be fruitful.<br />
Exhibitors’ attention is drawn to the Health & Safety Executive Guidance Note (GS36) regarding<br />
the safe custody and handling of bulls at Agricultural <strong>Show</strong>s.<br />
IMPORTANT NOTE:<br />
All cattle entered for this <strong>Show</strong> must be from Officially Brucellosis and Tuberculosis Free Herds,<br />
and each animal must be accompanied by the official Brucellosis Movement Permit, issued by<br />
DARD and all cattle from Great Britain or the Republic of Ireland must comply with any import<br />
regulations in force.<br />
To be fair to each breed, penning is calculated using a three year average. If the number of pens<br />
booked per breed exceeds this amount the Society has the right to cut pens per exhibitor.<br />
ENTRIES CLOSE FRIDAY 18th MARCH<br />
