The National Spectacular Show of suckled calves, held as part of Beef Expo with Caltech as main sponsor, attracted an entry of 112 top quality from 42 exhibitors – compared with 72 at the inaugural show last year – and drew warm praise from the judge, Hugh Dunlop, Holehouse, Ochiltree, Ayrshire, who has won the supreme championship at the Royal Smithfield Show on no fewer than three occasions.

“It was a very good show of cattle and an outstanding championship line-up,” said Mr Dunlop.
