This heifer was sired by the 38,000gns Foxhillfarm Irish Lad and out of world-record Limousin price female Glenrock Illusion, which sold for 125,000gns. Mamamia was sold just last month at Carlisle for 42,000gns so is now owned in partnership with Messrs Evans of the Penrhos herd from Wales who purchased the three top-priced heifers that day.
Reserve supreme honours were awarded to the Simmental champion from David Craig with the 23-month-old Kennox Tara’s Gem. She is sired by Sowenna Aristocrat and out of Annick Helen’s Tara, an animal that placed second three years in a row at this show herself. Her daughter, however, did not follow the same trend, having already secured interbreed championships at Newston and Stewardstown shows this summer.
