SHOWS
Scottish Simmental National Show
Champion on the day Islavale Lullaby was just exceptional, a really
super heifer. She has all the qualities you would want in a modern
breeding female and I just knew that she would go on to do well in
the Overall Interbreed, I am really delighted that she was crowned
the Interbreed Champion.” Of the Scottish Simmental National Show
generally John Moore went on to say: “I was delighted to be asked
to judge the National Show and I would like to thank the Scottish
Simmental Club and also the Black Isle show for their very warm
welcome. It was a great show of animals, especially the females
which really impressed me.”
At the conclusion of the Scottish Simmental National Show, Islavale
Lullaby did indeed move on to secure the Overall Individual
Interbreed Championship of the Black Isle Show and this time in
front of interbreed judge Michael Durno, Auchorachan, Glenlivet.
The Scottish Simmental National Show rounded off the 2022 series
of breed National Shows which saw the English National within the
Royal Lancashire, and the Northern Irish National within the Armagh
County Show.
Reserve Supreme Champion & Reserve Female Champion Denzies Eve’s Beauty.
Commenting, the Society’s General Manager Iain Kerr said:
These Simmental National Show
events provide a tremendous
promotional window through which to see
the depth of quality within the Simmental
breed across the UK and to highlight
established genetics and youngstock with
forward potential. A big well done is extended
to all exhibitors through the summer who
have showcased the breed so well.”
Lifting the Overall Reserve Supreme and Reserve Female Champion
at the Scottish Simmental National Show was Denizes Eve’s Beauty
3 rd from MA Barlow & Sons, Ulnes, Nr Leyland, Lancs. With a pedigree
full of performance and quality bloodlines, the January 2020
born Denizes Eve’s Beauty 3 rd parents are both previous Supreme
Champions at the Royal Highland Show, with the sire being Blackford
Galaxy 15 and the dam being Auroch Eve, a two-time Highland
Champion and voted as the Highland’s Simmental Champion of the
Decade in 2020. This latest title for Denizes Eve’s Beauty 3 rd follows
hard on the heels of this heifer securing the same Reserve Overall
position at the recent English Simmental National Show, where she
also featured in the winning Interbreed Team of Four.
Overall Junior & Female Junior Champion Corskie Mimic.
Reserve Junior Champion & Male Junior Champion Corskie Mikah.
Of his Reserve Champion, John Moore said: “Another quality female,
Denizes Eve’s Beauty 3 rd was a different type of female to the
Champion but equally good in her own way. A strong heifer, she’ll
make a great cow and go on to do well in the future.”
Throughout the show summer the quality of Simmental females has
been very much to the fore and that again proved to be the case
at the Simmental Scottish National Show. Lifting the Overall Junior
Championship, and the Junior Female title was Corskie Mimic from
the noted Corskie herd of Mr WJ & J Green, Corskie, Garmouth,
Fochabers. January 2021 born, Corskie Mimic is by Kilbride Farm
Haka 16 and is out of Corskie Imitation EX90, an Auchorachan Farmer
14 daughter. Doubling up in the Juniors, the Corskie herd also lifted Best Calf born in 2022 Corskie Nutmeg.
