President’s

Message

SIMMENTAL REVIEW 2019

At the time of writing this message to members we

are now firmly into 2020. Can I say what a privilege

it is to be the Society’s President in this landmark

50th anniversary year for the breed and the Society in

the UK. It is a year in which the Society will rightly reflect

and celebrate but we will also look forward to taking aim

at the years ahead and with a view to positioning the

breed promotionally and technically at the forefront of

the British beef industry. We are working hard on the

50th anniversary events planned for July and August 2020

and I very much hope you will get involved by entering

the planned show and sale or just by coming along to

support what will be a terrific Simmental showcase. If the

Society can be of support to any breeders in need of help

attending, please do give me a call.

The Simmental breed had a solid calendar year in 2019

with a good demand across the sales in what remains

challenging industry circumstances for commercial

beef producers. Simmental pedigree registrations have

remained firm, very much in line with recent years and

likely to be maintained at the 7500 mark. It is extremely

encouraging that we have continued to gain new members

through the year and the membership figure is very

stable at just under 1150. I’d like to warmly welcome all

the new faces to the Society and at the same time thank

all members for your continued support, it is greatly

appreciated. At the summer and county shows through

2019, the Simmental breed has excelled with some terrific

cattle securing a number of high profile interbreed titles.

This resulted in a tremendous national promotion of the

breed and congratulations to all the respective exhibitors.

All of the hard work put in by the breeders, and the cost

that goes into showing, is fully recognised and again is

greatly appreciated by the Society. Therefore, on behalf of

the Council and personally, I want to take this opportunity

to thank you most sincerely for your commitment and for

promoting the breed to the very highest standard.

Of one thing there is no doubt – the demand for quality

Simmental cross cattle is very strong. Such cattle and the

prices realised are the result of the quality bulls being

produced by you the breeder. I believe as breeders we

constantly need to be more selective in the animals we

retain for breeding. We must strive to continually improve

our breed for those functional characteristics which are of

importance to the commercial beef producer and I believe

those traits are ease of fleshing with good conformation,

Michael Barlow

President

ease of calving, good legs, locomotion and feet.

In writing this message, it is the time of year where we

are looking forward to the Spring sales at the respective

sale centres and I wish everybody every success. Building

on last year’s achievement, the Worcester Spring Sale

was a credit to every breeder in attendance and Stirling

continues to be the flagship sale centre for the breed.

Again in 2019 we were treated to a very special weekend

for the young members trip when visiting the Ward family

at Westridge and the McCulloch’s at Overhill House. These

trips continue to be both educational and an inspiration

to our younger members and thoroughly enjoyed by all

attending, with hospitality second to none. Thank you to all

involved.

As you are aware, 2019 was a year of some transition

and again I would like to acknowledge Neil Shand and his

work as he leaves the Society after some ten years at the

forefront of the organisation. A huge amount of work goes

into running the society behind the scenes and we are

always well supported by the office staff. A big thank you

is also extended to Julie Holmes and Karen Vince for their

continued hard work throughout 2019. I would also like

to thank all Council members for their support through the

past year, and with a special thank you to Stewart Stronach

as Vice President. Finally, I would like to welcome our new

Council members and look forward to working with them

to promote our fantastic breed.

The strength of the Society is the members and the

assurance is there that the Council are fully focussed on

delivering the professional level of core and promotional

services that you would expect. It is also an objective of

the year to ensure clear and open communication with the

membership on an ongoing basis and we welcome your

thoughts and input to all Society news and matters. I very

much hope and trust that collectively we can celebrate

and enjoy the breed’s fiftieth anniversary year. Let’s

make it a truly memorable celebration of all things British

Simmental!

IBR POLICY

GUIDELINES AND

SALE RULES.

The BSCS has championed animal health very strongly

in the past six years - highlighting health in breeding

cattle has been at the forefront of all our advertising

and promotional material.

In 2010 and 2011, some resistance was encountered

when rules were introduced requiring all vendors to be

members of CHeCS-approved health schemes, and to be

testing for Johnes and BVD. Time has proved this to be a

game-changing decision. In the past seven years, we have

the highest average price increases across all breeds and

consistently have the highest clearance rates at the Stirling

sales. Four times during this period we have sold more

bulls than the Charolais, most recently at the February 18

sales, something that was never achieved in the so-called

heydays of the 80s and 90s.

Clearly this is not all down to health status – the cattle

the breeders are producing and the marketing strategy

have improved – these are all part of the ‘total package’

which is driving the breed forward. As a Society, IBR is the

next logical disease to tackle, albeit with a full knowledge

of the complexity of the disease. We feel it is a vital step for

all members to discover what their individual IBR status is –

you cannot manage it if you don’t measure.

Whilst there are still a few AI centres that will purchase

bulls from a market, the Society felt it was completely

wrong to have all bulls tested and vaccinated, which

removes the potential sale to AI centres from breeders.

Between 80 and 90% of bulls sold at pedigree sales enter

the commercial herd. There is no reason why these bulls

should not undergo the same vaccination, quarantine and

test protocol. In light of this, the decision was made to

start with heifers only. A far higher percentage of heifers

sold through Society sales remain in pedigree herds, and

it was logical to protect the expanding or new herd. Whilst

we are aware we are not guaranteeing IBR-free cattle, we

are reducing the risk, and this is to be encouraged. Moving

forwards, this rule may be applied to bulls as well.

Around 60% of heifers sold at Society sales will go to

pedigree herds, and an IBR health requirement offers the

best chance (although not a guarantee) that the animal

is free from IBR and protected at the time of sale. The

purchaser should seek comfort from purchasing stock

that has been vaccinated with an inactivated marker

vaccine, been blood tested clear of wild-type IBR, and has

remained in quarantine since that date. The animal cannot

be presented as IBR-free, but this is deemed the best

course of action to minimise the risk of a purchaser buying

IBR into his herd. For Society testing and vaccination

requirements, a heifer remains so until she calves. The rule

will therefore apply to all maiden and in-calf heifers.

Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR) is a Bovine

Herpes virus. As with all Herpes viruses, once an animal

is infected, it remains so for life, despite the development

of a detectable immune response. The virus survives as a

latent infection in nervous tissue, and can be shed at any

time, especially when the animal is stressed.

Cattle are the main source of the virus; virtually all farms

with an IBR problem have bought it in. The main source

of the virus is not animals with disease, but animals that

have recovered from the disease – those that are latently

infected. You should not buy antibody positive cattle if you

are IBR-free.

Vaccination is an effective means of control, but this

does not stop infected animals from shedding the virus

at a later date. The aim of vaccination is to reduce the

intensity and duration of the disease, and to reduce

shedding of the virus. Vaccination will always be more

012 www.britishsimmental.co.uk


effective when used prior to exposure as prevention,

rather than as control following infection. An assortment

of vaccines, vaccine courses and routes of administration

are available. There are separate indications for managing

abortion and foetal infection with IBR, and also for calves

younger than three months old. Please seek veterinary

advice if this applies to your herd.

There are two main types of vaccine; live or inactivated

(dead). Within each category, there are marker and nonmarker

vaccines. A live vaccine is often used intra-nasally,

or into the muscle. The intra-nasal route will ensure

quicker protection, but the antibody levels are unlikely to

be as high. As the virus is live, it can theoretically replicate

in the animal and ‘infect’ unvaccinated animals. Inactivated

vaccines are never given intra-nasally, and cannot replicate

within the animal. Antibodies are generally high and long

lasting.

Marker vaccines were developed to allow differentiation

between cattle that are vaccinated and those that

have been exposed to wild-type virus. It’s impossible

to differentiate the non-marker vaccines from natural

exposure on a single blood sample. An animal vaccinated

with a marker vaccine and exposed to wild-type virus will

produce wild-type and vaccine antibodies. Antibodies

to IBR can be passed to the calf via colostrum. This will

have an impact on when calves are vaccinated, and blood

samples taken from calves could be antibody-positive for a

number of months.

The IBR vaccinated and monitored free

programme

This is applicable to herds which cannot achieve

full double fencing biosecurity requirements and

demonstrates that the herd is operating a marker

vaccination programme and is free from IBR infection

based on gE antibody testing. It is a lower level of health

status compared to IBR accredited free herds.

• With permitted exceptions all stock over 12 months

old should be marker vaccinated for IBR.

• Sale animals or animals for export or potential

AI should NOT be marker vaccinated and the

vaccination protocols should be discussed with your

vet.

• Two herd tests are carried out between 4 weeks and

12 months apart

• All animals over 12 months of age and nonhomebred

animals younger than 12 months are

eligible for testing

• If these 2 herd tests are clear then the herd is

accredited as vaccinated and monitored free.

IBR Accreditation Programme

• Review and upgrade herd biosecurity programme

to meet the rules of the scheme (see rules summary

or CHeCS technical document).

• Test all animals of twelve months and older and all

non-homebred animals.

• Where all animals test negative this is a clear first

qualifying herd test.

• The second qualifying test can be carried out 1-12

months later. A clear test at that time confirms

accredited status.

• Annual testing is required to maintain accredited

status. This is done on a statistically based sample

from each group of animals over 12 months of age.

• Vaccinated animals can enter accredited herds,

contact your CHeCS provider to confirm % of herd.

Sale rules regarding IBR

As of October 2016, all heifers need to be isolated at

least seven days prior to testing clear and vaccinated

with an IBR marker vaccine, an inactivated IBR vaccine is

preferred to live vaccine.

Test positive animals should be removed and the

process repeated 14 days following removal of test

positives.

Isolation facilities as per CHeCS or own country

government approved, Defra etc.

Cattle vaccinated as young calves can still be isolated

and tested for IBR wild type after vaccination, testing

differentiates between marker vaccine and actual virus, a

booster would then be required pre-sale.

Testing timeline pre-sale as per CHeCS- less than 12

weeks.

A heifer will be classed as such until the first calf is born.

Non-marker vaccines will not be accepted.

Entries from Accredited herds need only to be

vaccinated.

All vaccination dates and the type of vaccine used need

to be clearly stated on your HHD.

We accept and understand that this will not

guarantee that cattle going through a market will

remain IBR free but it is the first step in taking the

breed ahead of the competition regarding IBR.

VOLUNTARY

SEMEN TESTING

To further promote the fertility of

our breed, from 1st January 2018

any breeder selling (offering a bull

for sale) at a Society sale which has been

pre-sale semen tested has received £50

towards the cost of the test from the

Society on receipt of a copy of the fertility

report. This has now been reduced to £25

during 2020 and will be phased out at the

end of the year.

• The fertility report must include the

individual animal’s UK number, and the

full fertility report.

• Photo copies of originals and electronic

copies will be accepted.

The purchase of a bull can be the most

expensive individual livestock purchase a

commercial farmer will make, and can have

a serious negative impact on the profit of

their herd if he proves infertile. It can also

be a major reason for a purchaser not

returning to an individual breeder or even

breed.

Advantages;

• Comfort for both breeder and

purchaser that the bull is fertile.

• It will put Simmental breed ahead of

other breeds.

• Early identification of problem bulls

• Reduces risk of expensive post sale

claims

• Can reduce insurance premiums.

FAQs on Semen testing;

• It’s only a snap shot on one day? Yes

it is, but if he is fertile it confirms there

is no fundamental issue affecting his

fertility.

• He could become infertile after the

test? Yes, he could but the knowledge

that he has been fertile gives confidence

that any problems may be addressed,

eg infection.

• What if my best bull turns out

infertile? It is better to find out pre-sale

than after he has been sold.

• It’s expensive? It’s a small investment

adding value to your product.

• Electro ejaculations doesn’t assess

ability to serve? This is true but most

infertility claims are due to semen

quality.

• My vets don’t do it? There are large

number of vets and para-professionals

that carry out the service that will be

prepared to travel to you.

• It doesn’t guarantee the semen will

freeze? Correct but 90-95% of all bulls

sold at Society Sales are purchased by

commercial farmers to run and serve

cows naturally.

Testing timeline- ideally within 3

months of the sale, however 3-6 months

is acceptable. Semen testing is not a

warranty. It is a guarantee that on a given

day, a bull was producing an acceptable

quantity of viable semen with no defects

capable of settling cows in calf.

014 www.britishsimmental.co.uk


ENTROPIES

Entropion is a condition where the

eyelashes contact the surface of one

or both eyes as a result of the eyelid

turning in, most commonly noted in the

lower lid. This can cause irritation and

weeping of the eye followed by clouding,

ulcers and ultimately blindness.

There are various ways to define the

condition. Primary entropion occurs

where there is too much eyelid skin for

the conformation of the skull and size

of eyeball. Secondary entropion is as

a result of another condition, such as

dehydration or pain. Secondary entropion

can also be defined as spastic entropion. It

is caused where pain on the surface of the

eye from a foreign body, such as straw, or

from trauma such as a halter injury causes

the defect.

Primary entropion is clearly a genetic

and heritable defect. Secondary entropion

is not necessarily a genetic defect but can

be as a result of a genetic predisposition.

By the very nature of the Simmental

breed - “large elastic eyelids, eyelashes are

standing in-front of more elastic, thicker,

frilled skin around the eyes”- there is a

predisposition to the development of the

condition. If it is likely that this can be

passed on genetically then animals with

this problem should not be retained for

breeding.

Surgical correction can be carried

out to correct entropion provided the

predisposing cause is also managed. This

is appropriate to alleviate suffering in the

animal but is not acceptable as a means

to disguise the condition to allow a bull

to be sold for breeding.

My dad and I have a very small farm keeping 10 Simmental cows.

We started breeding pedigree Simmentals in 2003. I always had a

great interest in farming growing up. Our first trip to Stirling was

in 2010, and we have been back a few times since.

I started out serving my apprenticeship as a joiner while doing a course

in Greenmount Agriculture College. I stuck with the joinery for 15 years

but now I’m a full time AI man which I love doing, even though it can be 7

days a week. I married Donna in 2010 and have 3 great children Charlie 7,

Jack 5 and Annie 18 months.

I had a great interest in Gaelic football playing for my club and county

(Down) up to under 21. Then I found out I was no good at it!

I have enjoyed my years breeding Simmentals and have met a lot of

great people along the way.

BARRIE WYNTER

SIMMENTAL REVIEW 2019

I

am Cornish born and reared at Bolankin for 38 years. The farm consists

of seventy acres on the challenging shallow granite soils of the Land’s

End peninsular in west Cornwall.

On leaving school in 1998 I enrolled into Duchy College on a day release

scheme to study agriculture. Through working and training I gained

valuable experience finishing in 2003 with the City and Guilds qualification

in Farm Management. I have worked in the livestock industry ever since on

both dairy and beef enterprises.

In 1995 at the age of thirteen, in partnership with my uncle Edward

White, the Bolankin Herd of pedigree Simmentals was established starting

with foundation females from TOLVER. Additions followed from LESCEAVE

CLIFF and PENNANCE together with bulls from BARGUS and SWAY.

In 2009 the herd and farm were divided with my half continuing the

Bolankin prefix. I decided to concentrate on the Hannadante family of

eight cows with bloodlines originating from the Hazel Court and Heywood

herds and to become high health accredited gaining elite status. The

Bolankin Herd has won the best herd in Cornwall 2011 and the South West

in 2012 alongside numerous prizes in the show ring.

During twenty-five years in the breed the Cornwall Simmental Club

has played a huge part in adding to my interest providing opportunities

to travel the British Isles and Republic of Ireland visiting differing farms

and herds. It has been an immense pleasure to meet fellow breeders and

benefit from their generous help and advice. I have felt privileged to be in

the company of cattlemen and women that I hold in the highest esteem

for their knowledge of the breed.

In 2018 I was honoured to become Chairman of the Cornwall Simmental

Club a wonderful group of supportive friends and breeders. Now I’m

looking forward to serving on the BSCS council continuing to meet existing

contacts and making new friends whilst working hard to promote the

breed we are all passionate about.

In the past I have held office in the local Young Farmers Club. Currently

in my spare time I am an active participant in ploughing match clubs and

serve the community as a local parish councillor.

First ever bull sold, Banwy T-Rex selling for 8,500gns.

He went on to be All Ireland Champion three years in

succession, then two of his daughters followed in his

footsteps by becoming All Ireland Champions, and in

2019 a granddaughter was also All Ireland Champion.

Banwy Wonderboy, Senior and Reserve Overall

SIMMENTAL REVIEW 2019

MICHAEL DURNO

My grandfather took on the tenancy of Auchorachan (Gaelic for

“fields of gold”) in 1953.

Auchorachan is a hill farm with a very short growing season so

we have always produced store cattle to sell at a year old, mostly Charolais

and Simmentals, the Simmental breed has been the back bone of the herd

for as long as I can remember, with most of the commercial cows being

Simmental crosses. The first Simmental bull I can remember my late

grandfather buying, was Cloford Kernel, he had a massive affect on the

herd at the time, with so many of his daughters retained.

My first pedigree females were purchased in 2002, from the

Ravensworth dispersal, and a cow from a local farm sale called “Greenlea

Hilly”, and together with a few select purchases from Delfur, Woodhall, and

Celtic, pedigree females now number around 50. The 2 most influential

stockbulls so far, were both purchased in 2006, Saltire Talant and Clonagh

Tiger Gallant. We also have over 100 cross bred cows and keep 600

Scottish Blackface breeding ewes.

I have a long history of breeding and showing commercial show calves,

having some success at local and national shows, but with the progression

to more extreme types in the commercial show ring I have lost a little

interest, as I prefer a more correct, balanced type animal with a nice head,

so now I mainly concentrate on showing the Simmentals.

I find it interesting to see how versatile the breed is, with different

types to suit different situations, and how other countries have different

breeding goals, like Ireland with more of a carcase emphasis, and Denmark

and other parts of Europe chasing the polled gene.

I run the farm along with my father Leslie, with help from my wife

Morag, and our son Craig, who works at the local Glen Grant distillery, our

daughter Emma is currently at university in Glasgow studying psychology.

So with no other staff on the farm I don’t have time for much else,

although I do like to watch a bit of football on TV, and I play darts for three

different teams, which all won their respective leagues last year!

PROMOTIONAL

EVENTS

2019

The promotional tour 2019 started on 23rd

May at J36 Lancaster at the NBA Beef Event.

For many of us, this was our first visit to this

market; the facilities are excellent, and we were

made to feel most welcome. This was the best

attended NBA Beef Event in many years and shows

the importance of choosing the correct venue

for these types of events. We had a good stand

with tremendous cattle which generated a huge

amount of interest on the day.

020 www.britishsimmental.co.uk


Scotland’s Beef Event took place the following week at

North Bethelnie Farm in Aberdeenshire. In spite of the

weather (snow and sleet in May)! this was a well-attended

event. Once again, we had a very good stand, and being on

my home patch, I was delighted to be awarded 1st prize in

the Breed Society Exhibit category.

SIMMENTAL REVIEW 2019

coming 1st prize in the Breed Society Exhibit category

We were fortunate enough to be

able to hold an open day at the end

of September, courtesy of David,

Kath Edwards and Fran Ford. Events

like these are always easy when the

host farmers have enthusiasm for

both the breed and the message

we were trying to give on the day.

We are indebted to David, Kath

and Fran for their commitment to

the open day. Ed Simmons gave a

detailed presentation based around

pelvic measurements, and their

effectiveness in helping to select

the future of a breeding herd. I

gave a talk on sustainability in beef

production, and a very interesting

discussion was had by all present.

Drinks were kindly supplied by

Crediton Milling, and the British

Simmental Cattle Society provided

a barbecue. A great day was had

by all.

Next stop was the Beef Expo at Carlisle at the beginning

of November. This was the launch of the new promotional

boards for the stand, and we were very pleased with how

they looked. The event didn’t appear to be as busy as last

year; numbers seem to have been declining at this event

over the past few years.

A Day in Kelso:

A Canadian’s Experience at the

Border Union

Cattle Show

Sabrina Kooistra

While it should not have come as

so much of a shock to us, our day

abroad in the town of Kelso– one

of our very first days in Scotland– it poured.

Where we come from, it was a clear-therainy-day-fund,

pouring-cats-and-dogs

kind of day, and it showed few signs of

relenting.

But there we stood, taking shelter with

the cattle under the protection of the big

top, watching our new Scottish friends

trudge through the mud– seemingly

unfazed.

Indeed, this was one of the signs that

we had entered into mildly unfamiliar

territory. Our family resides on a small

farm in southern Alberta, Canada’s

Western-most prairie province. While this

affords us the tranquility and space that we

have grown accustomed to, it also offers

the opportunity to play a part in one of

Alberta’s prized and equally famed exports:

agriculture, and more specifically, beef

cattle. Our stock consists of Simmental-

Angus cross, and of course, the best in

the herd were brought annually to various

4-H shows. The 4-H program has, for

over a century, been an integral part of

growing up in rural Canada. As members

of the local 4-H Beef Club, my sister and

I learned the skills to market a steer and

the art of building a herd, and proper

show etiquette became a function of this

process. Naturally, the basic principles

and purpose of cattle showing differ only

slightly between Scottish and Canadian

shows; however, our interest piqued when

we discovered that there is no universal

handbook for exactly how to show cattle,

making our visit to the Border Union Cattle

Show as informative as it was entertaining.

While in pursuit of finding activities to

do and events to attend during our time

in Scotland, my father came across the

Border Union Show. Intrigued by the cattle

component, he soon contacted the Scottish

Club of the British Simmental Cattle Society

and eventually proposed the idea of my

sister and I showing cattle in one of the

classes. A few months later, we arrived at

the Border Union Show at 8:00am to get

our bearings and observe the beginning

of the show. Simmental, Limousin, Saler,

and Charolais breeders were also present,

parading their stock in the rain, and

this continued well into the afternoon.

Participants had made long treks from

all around Scotland, some even travelling

several hours, in order to compete in the

Border Union Cattle Show.

024 www.britishsimmental.co.uk


After observing several classes, it

became clear that there were some new

rules and etiquette we needed to learn in

order to conform to the expectations of

this new ring. Here are a few differences

we noticed:

- Cattle are shown with double ropes and

nasal rings as their halter; we customarily

show with a simple leather halter.

- Long, white jackets are worn in many

Scottish shows. An embroidered club shirt

with blue or black jeans is customary in

many Canadian shows.

- At home, having a single-blade comb

in one’s back pocket is essential as it is

recommended that a show person conduct

grooming touch-ups when in the ring. We

did not notice this at the Border Union

Cattle Show.

We also noticed a measurable variance

in the breeds of cattle preferred in the

region. While a cattle show in Alberta

serves as an exhibition of several breeds,

Angus and Simmental cattle generally

dominate, number-wise. In addition, there

was also a notable difference in the frame

and build of the Simmentals we raise and

those present at the Border Union Cattle

Show. The Simmentals present were much

larger than our Simmental cattle, which

posed as a new challenge in the ring.

Similarly, showing a bull– and a large one

at that– was a new and slightly daunting

experience as my sister and I had only

shown calves, heifers, cows, and steers

prior-to; however, the even temperament

and calming demeanour of the bull and

heifer dispelled any previous fears or

concerns.

We showed in the outdoor ring as

part of the Young Handlers competition–

our baptism into the world of Scottish

cattle showing, so-to-speak. Yes, we had

joined the Scots in trudging through the

mud and the rain. Though a small roster

of participants in the Young Handlers

competition, it was, nevertheless, a

memorable and educational experience,

and its memory will live on through the red

and blue ribbons we would soon pack up

and carry home.

Eventually we bid our goodbyes and

went to discover the happenings of the

remaining events and pavilions at the

Border Union Show. We traversed the

sheep, rabbits, and poultry, checking out

other breeds we had never seen in the

flesh before. We also approached a judge

in the rabbit pavilion who took some time

to walk through the judging criteria for the

best bunnies. And of course, this was also

a prime opportunity to get ahold of some

local fare for our lunch.

Yes, it would seem that we got what

we wished for: an authentic Scottish

agricultural experience not without the

charm and spirited sense of community

familiar to us in our rural home. And

so, we owe many thanks to a number

of individuals and groups. Sincerest

gratitude is due to the Scottish Club of

the British Simmental Cattle Society for

your warmth, patience, and generous

hospitality in permitting us to take part

in the Border Union Cattle Show. Many

thanks, specifically, to Tom Henderson

and Richard Pettit for organizing this

opportunity to participate. Thanks to

Nick and Nadia Gwynne (Chestermann

Farms) and Neil Shand (CEO of British

Simmental Cattle Society) for sharing your

knowledge and gifting us with a handpainted,

commemorative plate. Finally,

a special thanks to Frank Gwynne, and

Gerald, Morag, and Douglas Smith for

loaning us your docile giants, Brandane J

Low and Drumsleed Jagger, respectively, to

show in the Young Handlers competition.

It truly was a pleasure, as much as it was a

privilege to learn from your expertise and

be offered the opportunity to spend the

day observing and participating alongside

you. You were all the most kind and

generous souls one could hope to become

acquainted with. On behalf of my family,

we thank you, again.

After nine years of showing cattle,

attending the Border Union Cattle Show

was, for my sister and I, a unique way to

conclude our amateur showing careers. It

was an opportunity to export our childhood

wonder and deep-seated rural roots, step

into the shoes of cattlemen across the

pond, and perhaps most profoundly, to

foster what we hope to be a long-lasting

relationship with our newfound Scottish

friends– even when the bellowing of stock,

the calming cacophony of heavy rain, and

the backdrop of the Border Union Show

become but a distant memory.

Simmental breeders reaping

rewards from IVP

Reduced programming, donor handling and semen usage

IVP can enable collection from donor cows every single week, even during early pregnancy

Simmental breeders are

reaping the rewards

from introducing In-

Vitro embryo Production

(IVP), a service that allows

greater flexibility and

improved animal welfare

from specialist assisted

breeding company, AB

Europe.

“IVP delivers all the

benefits of traditional

flushing (MOET) however

the service offers many

more advantages which in

turn result in IVP being an

attractive competitior for

UK cattle breeders,” says AB

Europe’s vet, Gavin Tait.

“IVP accelerates embryo

production from donor

cows, whilst maintaining

pregnancy hold rates for

both fresh and frozen

embryos with the equivalent

success to its predecessor.”

He adds: “The IVP

process produces embryos

from collected oocytes

(unfertilised eggs). The

oocytes are fertilised within

the laboratory by selected

semen and cultured for

seven days until fully

developed embryos can be

transferred or frozen.”

AB Europe offers a

unique on farm donor

collection – a process that

takes approximately 15

minutes per donor after

initial set up, thereby

minimising stress.

Alternatively, clients can

book donors into our

livery to obtain multiple

collections that are tailored

to the donors individual

requirements.

Ross King and his father, Alex have

successfully introduced IVP to speed

up embryo production and accelerate

genetic gain within their Wolfstar

pedigree Simmental herd.

“In the last 12 months we’ve flushed

four of our best females, achieved 22

embryos in total and they’re safely

waiting in the tank for implantation or

alternatively for sale,” Ross explains.

“We chose Wolfstar Flame whose first

son took the February 2019 Stirling

reserve senior championship and sold

for 8,500gns. The other three females

were cows with good conformation.

“We’re using IVP to take our 40 cow

pedigree herd to the next level; it’s a

service which is enabling

us to select specific sires to

cross with some of our best

breeding females producing

high genetic merit progeny

for potential sale.

“Furthermore, IVP has

the potential to provide

us with more choice of

homebred bulls to retain for

breeding purposes – that’s an

opportunity we really value

since we are very strict on

biosecurity.”

The King’s IVP journey

began in 2016. “We initially

implanted 10 fresh embryos,

achieved 80%

pregnancy rate

resulting in eight

great calves on the

ground mainly by

our own stockbull,

Team Celtic 11 who

we have found to be

the most successful

with the process.

Others used were

Popes Barclay

selected for ease of

calving and Curaheen Bandit. These

first IVP calves included Stirling 2019

reserve senior champion, Wolfstar Irn

Bru and Wolfstar I Like You, who has

joined the donor team.

He adds: “The collection process is

very straight forward; the donors don’t

require any preparation or injections

so they’re very relaxed. We simply

bring them into the yard for Gavin

Tait to make the collection and the job

is complete within 30 minutes. The

recipients from our commercial herd

were in rising condition, we brought

them in straight off grass and ready

for Gavin to carry out the implantation

process.”

Team Jackpot sold for 14,000gns in Stirling, October 2019. He’s

one of the first IVP produced bulls from the Team herd, based at

Kirkton of Mailer, Perth and owned by Robert Macgregor - another

Simmental breeder who is successfully using IVP to exploit some of

his best genetics.

PCHS NEWS

Premium Cattle Health Scheme

Welcome

Dear member,

Welcome to the 2020 edition of PCHS News. We would like to take this opportunity to thank

you for using SRUC Veterinary Services as your health scheme provider. We greatly value

your business. We have built up the Premium Cattle Health Scheme over many years, during

which time we have listened closely to the views of our members and developed our service

accordingly through significant investment in test development, our client database and

support to our members and their vets. We believe that this is why we have remained the

market leader in health scheme provision throughout the development and maturation of

CHeCS.

We understand that while your veterinary practice may have advised you to join PCHS, the

choice remained yours. We very much hope that you continue to feel that you made the right

choice. If there is any health scheme matter that you would like to raise we would be pleased to

have a discussion with you.

Johne’s Disease Test Update

The PCR method used by SRUC Veterinary

Services for detecting MAP (the organism

that causes Johne’s Disease) in faeces is

changing. The new method has recently

been UKAS accredited and involves an

additional sample preparation stage and

a change of test kit to give improved

sensitivity for MAP detection.

The new test requires a larger volume

of sample; please ensure that you

submit more than 10g of faeces for

testing.

The new PCR method can detect MAP

positive samples from faeces as reliably as

the PCR test on cultures grown from faeces,

but it allows greater efficiency and reduces the

time required for testing from more than 42 days

to fewer than 10 days. Due to the improved sensitivity

of the test, it is critical that best practice is observed during sample collection to prevent

contamination, such as the changing of gloves between samples and samples being taken

directly from the rectum of the animal. Also please note that all samples for the scheme

must be collected by your vet and submitted in standard faeces sample pots: it is not

acceptable to submit faeces in gloves.

AgRE Calc© carbon calculator

Find out where you sit on the

carbon scale … and how to

improve with the AgRE Calc©

carbon calculator from SAC

Consulting

The need for farming to measure, manage

and reduce its carbon footprint is growing

steadily driven by the demands of

consumers, governments and retailers. A

resource use assessment, also known as

a carbon footprint shows the quantity of

greenhouse gas emissions produced from

routine farm activities, highlighting areas

where changes can be made that, when

implemented, will reduce emissions. The

three main greenhouse gases produced from agriculture include carbon dioxide, produced by burning fossil fuels;

methane, produced as a natural by-product of animal digestion and nitrous oxide, which is released from soils

following the application of nitrogen fertiliser (manufactured and organic) and soil disturbance.

SIMMENTAL REVIEW 2019

SAC Consulting has been helping the livestock sector measure and reduce its carbon footprint for over 10 years

and has developed an on-line service for the industry; AgRE Calc©. Backed by the latest science from SRUC

Research coupled to the on-farm skills and knowledge of our consultants; AgRE Calc© offers a very practical and

accurate assessment of a farm’s performance for carbon and associated Key Performance Indicators.

This agricultural resource efficiency calculator determines on-farm emissions down to enterprise and per unit

of output basis; the most meaningful comparisons when considering food production. Only by breaking down

emissions and resource use by enterprise can weaknesses be identified and actions to improve performance be

highlighted. Making more efficient use of resources i.e. inputs, strongly correlates with reduced production costs

per kg of output, improving profitability of the farm business. Typically, we find that the better performing farms

have the lowest carbon emissions.

Currently we have over 2,000 beef, sheep and dairy farms on our on-line database for comparison. This service

is currently supporting Beef Efficiency Scheme participants in Scotland and supply chain groups across the UK.

If you would like to learn more about the service and how SAC Consulting could help you lower your carbon

footprint please contact; Julian Bell 0131 603 7524 – Julian.bell@sac.co.uk and visit: www.agrecalc.com

CHeCS Audit Report and what to do with Added Animals!

The CHeCS auditors continue to inspect our members, selecting a number of farms at random each year.

Although the majority of the feedback from the audits shows that adherence to the CHeCS rules is generally

very good, the main issues that arise are around purchased animals that are added to accredited herds.

The general advice from the CHeCS rules is that whenever possible, cattle should only be added to an

accredited herd if they are from a herd that is accredited free from the disease in question, or in the case

of Johne’s Disease and Neospora at Risk Level 1. Otherwise they must be placed in isolation for the

required period and tested for the diseases in question. The rules also outline the specific requirements for each disease scheme

separately. An excerpt of the CHeCS technical document, focusing solely on the rules for added animals can be found at:

www.bit.ly/PCHS_AddedAnimals

If, for example, your herd is accredited for BVD, Johne’s Disease and IBR and the only suitable animal(s) that you can find for

purchase are BVD accredited and with a Johne’s Disease risk level that matches or is greater than your own, but no accreditation

for IBR, then they must be isolated and tested for IBR in line with the rules or your whole herd’s IBR accreditation is being put at

risk.

It is also worth noting that even if you buy from an accredited herd, the animal will lose its status if they have mixed with nonaccredited

stock at any point (e.g. at a market, during transport or at a show without a section for accredited animals) and they will

need to be isolated and tested. Also wherever possible when buying an accredited animal you should request the certification of

accreditation from the source herd and send in a copy with any sample to be tested.

PCHS Advisory Group

The PCHS Advisory Group’s annual meeting took place in

September 2019, to discuss all matters arising from the running of

the accreditation schemes.

This year the group was able to take a tour of the new SRUC

Veterinary Services labs at Penicuik, near Edinburgh, to see firsthand

the facilities that are used for PCHS tests. It was agreed that

the group will now also meet by conference call 6 months after the

September meeting to discuss progress of issues raised.

The group consists of:

Members who wish to gain their BVD

accreditation through the use of

tissue testing must test every

single animal that is born. Any

animal being missed will lead to the

loss of accredited status. Although

accreditation is possible through

tissue testing alone, we advise that

check tests are also carried out

for a more robust approach.

Mycoplasma Infections in Dairy Herds

Mycoplasma infections are commonly recognised in cattle. There are quite a diverse range of Mycoplasma species with some causing

disease while others do not. Of these Mycoplasma bovis is probably the most important.

There are certain key facts that need to be considered when investigating, managing and treating Mycoplasma bovis infections and

some of them are discussed below:

1. Mycoplasma species differ from many bacteria in that they do not have a cell wall. This is not just of interest to scientists

as it means that some of the commonly used antibiotics which act against bacterial cell walls (such as the penicillins) will not

work. As with all bacterial diseases, deciding on an appropriate choice of antibiotic, targeting that treatment to the right animals

early in the disease process and reviewing treatment outcomes is crucial for success. Veterinary advice here is crucial.

2. The main disease presentations seen with Mycoplasma bovis infections are pneumonia, middle ear disease causing

an ear droop or head tilt, mastitis and arthritis seen as non-foot lameness with joint swellings. Unfortunately many of

these problems can be chronic with a variable response to treatment. Mycoplasma bovis infection may also occur with

no clinical signs at all. Clearly Mycoplasma bovis is not the only potential cause of any of these disease signs. A veterinary

assessment of the disease situation on farm, plus taking appropriate samples for diagnostic testing will be required to consider

the role Mycoplasma species are playing on farm.

3. One of the main risk factors for having Mycoplasma bovis infections in a herd is a large herd size and purchasing cattle.

Ideally keeping disease out by having a closed herd is the way to go. If you can’t, consider the potential risks from what you are

buying with your vet and how you are going to mitigate the risk. Always consider that there is potential risk from bringing in carrier

cows into a herd that is not infected, as well as a risk in bringing disease free non-immune cows into a herd with active infection.

4. One of the main ways that infection spreads to calves is through feeding infected / contaminated cows milk and

colostrum. Once established in a group of calves then it will spread mainly by aerosol transmission. Clearly we need

to feed colostrum to calves and therefore in endemically infected herds pasteurisation of colostrum could be considered. Not

feeding cows’ milk or waste milk to heifer or bull calves will also significantly reduce the risk of disease transmission. In addition

to ensuring adequate draft free ventilation without chilling calves, keeping calf group size small and the age range within the calf

group narrow helps reduce the risk of disease spread from older to younger calves. Getting as close as possible to an ‘all in all

out system’ will really help.

5. For calf pneumonia, Mycoplasma bovis usually acts in combination with other viruses and bacteria. Therefore taking

steps to ensure optimal environmental and feeder hygiene, ensuring calves are well fed with sufficient good quality calf milk

replacer and reducing the challenge and effect of other respirator pathogens through vaccination will help for Mycoplasma

control.

6. Surveillance data shows that Mycoplasma bovis accounts for less than 1% of the diagnosed causes of mastitis with

other more common mastitis bacteria such as E coli or Streptococcus uberis being far more important. That said, on an

individual herd basis some herds can experience a significant outbreak of Mycoplasma bovis mastitis, sometimes in conjunction

with an arthritis at the same time. Mycoplasma are generally considered a ‘contagious’ type of bacteria, that will spread from cow

to cow in the parlour. Creating a milking routine to minimise cow to cow spread is the aim, and again this will control much more

than just Mycoplasma. In some cases, if Mycoplasma become established as a major cause of mastitis, more specific controls

(like segregation or culling of carrier cows) cows can be required.

Member Profile:

David & Annabel Stanners

Low Chesterhope Farm, West

Woodburn, Northumberland

David and Annabel are first generation farmers who started their herd of Luing cattle at Knowsley Estate in Merseyside.

Having previously worked as stock managers for Knowsley, the estate’s decision to no longer own cattle themselves

lead to David and Annabel becoming contract farmers on the estate so that they could keep their own herd. Breeding

pedigree Luings, they became members of PCHS in 2013 in order to gain accreditation for BVD and Johne’s Disease,

allowing them to sell cattle at the breed society sales. Until February 2019, David was also the chairman of the Luing

Cattle Society for two years.

While BVD accreditation was achieved easily through check tests, two positive results for Johne’s Disease over the years mean

that the herd is currently Risk Level 2, but hopes to achieve Risk Level 1 at the next herd test.

In order to progress their business, David and Annabel began to search for a farm of their own, looking at land as far south

as Derbyshire to as far north as Aberdeen, but by chance eventually settling on a property in their native Northumberland.

Relocating to the farm at West Woodburn in October 2016, they now farm a total of 600 acres, 200 of which is fell, 300 of rough

ground or pasture and 100 acres that can be mowed, running a herd of 80 cows, as well as a flock of 700 ewes.

Dr Grove-White of the University

of Liverpool put together a health

plan for the herd’s move to

Northumberland. As the herd had

never had neighbouring cattle at

Knowsley, the plan recommended

vaccinating for BVD, to avoid the

naïve herd being introduced to the

disease in their new home, as well as

advice for IBR, ticks, liver fluke and

more.

The farm’s vet, Lee-Anne Oliver of

Scott Mitchell Associates in Hexham,

believes that as well as the good management practices in place, the herd’s freedom from BVD is a major contributing factor

to the remarkably low antibiotic usage on the farm, with no calf pneumonia present. Other performance data shows that the

management practices and husbandry on the farm have certainly paid off:

• Heifers are calved at two years old with excellent fertility rates (97% of cows to the bull

weaned a calf in 2016)

• A tight calving pattern allowing them all to be weaned at the same time (up to 66% of

calves being born in the first 3 weeks of the calving period)

• Very low mortality rates for calves under one month of age (0 – 1%)

• Low mortality rates from one month old to weaning (2% in 2014, 0% in 2016 and 1%

in 2017).

The herd is closed, with the only exception being purchased bulls. Accredited bulls are

always sourced, with the majority coming from Johne’s Disease Risk Level 1 herds. Any

heifers that are not retained in the herd are sold for breeding stock at the Luing society

sales, while bullocks are currently sold as stores either privately or at the native breed sales at

Hexham, although David hopes to sell some as bulls at the society sales in the near future.

Looking ahead, the Stanners have considered the IBR scheme; however several of their cows have been vaccinated with nonmarker

vaccines by previous owners, meaning accreditation could not be achieved while these animals remain. Instead, gaining

accreditation for Neospora is the next goal for the herd.

David and Annabel have also set up a farm shop earlier this year, to sell their own beef and lamb as well as pork from a small

number of pigs reared especially for the shop. Visit www.facebook.com/tynedaleluing for more information.

Bovine Health Declaration – Pen or Sale cards

Bovine Health Declarations, otherwise known as Pen or Sale Cards, are produced by

CHeCS Health Scheme providers so that you can promote your accredited high status

livestock to potential buyers.

Last year the PCHS Team produced around 1250 pen cards for 200 of our 4000

members. Our busiest months are February, March, May and October so please

allow extra time planning during this period. To ensure we are able to get the correct

information and cards to you on time please follow these three simple steps:

1. Please plan ahead and organise your testing so that you receive your Sale Cards

promptly. We need 2 weeks’ notice before an event and 6 weeks’ notice if testing is

required as well

2. Check the requirements of your individual breed society and liaise with your vet to

ensure all necessary testing is undertaken

3. Download a Sale Card application form from www.cattlehealth.co.uk – ensure you

fill in the information you want to be displayed as it is your responsibility to do this.

Your PCHS accredited status will automatically be added to the Sale Card

The Sale Card application form asks for the following information:

• Your details (name, address, CPH)

• Auction details and date

• Veterinary Practice details – and vet signature where animals are at livery

• TB52 (summary of your most recent TB test) or TB accreditation level

• Animal Identities

• Tick any required tests. Detail vaccination information: vaccine names and dates

given for IBR, Leptospirosis and BVD

Important things to consider:

If your animals are at livery, they must be kept isolated if they are to keep the health

status of your holding, otherwise they will have the health status of the livery premises.

To qualify for a sale card, all animals must be from a BVD accredited herd or be

individually tested for BVD virus. In the case of Johne’s Disease, the herd status is

noted and not the individual animal’s status. Please note that your Johne’s Disease

herd status only applies to home bred animals.

Test results that are more than 3 months old CANNOT be used except a BVD Antigen

(virus) test which lasts a lifetime.

Looking ahead

We are currently looking at an online system for producing sale cards – more info will

be given as soon as possible.

herds have been tested for BVD and whether they have gained herd status.

For those already accredited with PCHS we can upload your status onto our

website for free, this benefits both schemes, as you have another space to present

your achievement and BVDFree England are able to demonstrate the appetite and

importance of BVD testing and eradication.

PCHS need your permission to upload this to our database.

This takes two minutes and can be done via their website at:

Thank you for your support.

Tackling bovine TB

Having worked as a farm animal vet in the south of

England since 1990, I have seen many changes in the

TB testing requirements for cattle within our practice

area. From only adult animals being tested every four

years to all animals every six months (with pre-movement testing required

before an animal is sold if it has not undergone a routine test within the

previous 60 days); and from the identification of an inconclusive reactor

being a noteworthy event, to the frequent identification of infected animals.

I have therefore taken great interest in the government’s plans to eradicate

bTB and in the debate about whether culling badgers can have any

meaningful role in achieving this aim.

for ANIMAL BREEDING

A practical, independent and

comprehensive online course

Irrespective to the answer to this debate it seems to me that the placing of

bTB under statutory control has moved attention away from the fact that this

disease is just another infectious disease of cattle (and other species), albeit

with its own particular management and diagnostic challenges. As such,

management of the current epidemic should be focused, as it would be in

the control and eradication of any infectious disease of cattle, on certain

key epidemiological areas including identifying and managing reservoirs of

infection and addressing routes of disease transmission.

The current government test and cull programme is aimed at identifying

and removing reservoirs of disease in cattle. This is clearly an important

part of the control of this disease but one that currently is in use largely in

isolation and is failing to achieve the desired outcome. While increasing

testing frequency or even using enhanced testing strategies or technologies

may improve the efficiency of this part of the programme, it is not adding

any material change to the overall strategy and so is unlikely to exert any

significant change to the outcome over current policy.

If we are to achieve success in the control and eventual eradication of

this disease, more attention needs to be given to breaking pathways of

transmission, whether cow-to-cow or wildlife-to-cow transmission.

Controlling cow-to-cow transmission within a herd requires managing

our herds to optimise immunity and effectively isolating high-risk animals.

Although vaccination may be considered the holy grail of disease prevention,

it remains at least 10 years away, and the limitations of current mycobacterial

vaccines need to be remembered alongside other factors that might affect

individual and herd-level immunity, including nutritional status and endemic

immunosuppressive disease status. Controlling cow-to-cow transmission

between herds requires good boundary biosecurity and appropriate risk

assessment and quarantine procedures, including ongoing testing of

purchased animals.

Controlling wildlife-to-cow transmission requires a different approach to

biosecurity to minimise contact between herds and potentially infected

wildlife. In particular, the management of cattle feed stores on many

farms could easily be improved with minimal effort, and careful grazing

management might help keep cattle and other bTB-susceptible wildlife apart.

This is exactly the approach to TB control espoused in the CHeCS TB risk level scheme and is an approach that has been

successful over many years in controlling and, in some cases, eradicating other non-statutory infectious diseases of cattle. This

has now been acknowledged by government which is proposing not to increase the testing frequency for herds that engage

with a CHeCS TB scheme in the high-risk area and has already been enacted in the edge area.

Given the reasoned probability of success of such an approach, the benefits of improved herd health management with respect

to numerous other infectious diseases, and a reduced requirement for whole herd TB testing, it would seem illogical not to take

full advantage of this offer of an alternative and enhanced strategy for the control and eradication of bTB presents.

Herd Level Diagnosis of Salmonella Dublin

Salmonella Dublin is a bacterial infection that has a significant impact on productivity and welfare in infected cattle herds. It

can spread to humans and has a higher mortality in humans than other strains of Salmonella. The clinical presentation can be

very variable, and abortions, diarrhoea, pneumonia, milk drop and ill-thrift are common clinical signs.

It is a frequent diagnosis, with

more than 1200 diagnoses

made by APHA and SRUC

diagnostic laboratories in the

last five years. It occurs more

commonly in dairy herds, with

85% of the cases diagnosed

by SRUC Veterinary Services

originating from dairy cattle.

Analysis from other European

countries suggests that costs

in the first year of an outbreak

can be as much as €52,000,

with ongoing annual losses of

€34,000. Losses result from

a number of factors, including

abortions, calf losses and a reduction in milk yield.

The initial costs of an outbreak, and the success of

an eradication program, depend on hygiene and

management measures. A risk assessment document

exists to help manage the critical husbandry factors that

should be altered to reduce spread of Salmonella Dublin

and aid in its eradication.

Testing in dairy herds can

be carried out by bulk tank

testing. Eradication schemes

for Salmonella Dublin are in

progress in Denmark and the

Netherlands. In the Danish

eradication scheme status

is assigned on the basis

of four bulk tank antibody

results, taken at three month

intervals. Serology can also

be carried out on blood

samples, allowing beef herds

to diagnose and monitor the

condition.

Eradication schemes in other European countries have

made good progress, and on average it takes just two

years for a herd to eradicate Salmonella Dublin.

Farewell to Dear Friends

David Thomlinson

10/02/1946 - 08/06/2019

In June 2019, as a consequence of a tragic

accident on his farm, David Thomlinson

sadly died. David will be remembered

for his outstanding dedication to the

livestock auctioneering world, within H&H,

throughout the UK and across the world.

David was born and brought up in

Cumbria and after leaving Carlisle

Grammar School in 1962, he began

working for livestock auctioneers Harrison

& Hetherington as an office boy based

in Botchergate, Carlisle. During his early

career he took and passed his Royal

Institute of Chartered Surveyor exams,

then moved across into auctioneering

and rose through the ranks to Managing

Director. David’s career with Harrison

& Hetherington spanned over 57 years,

during which time he made a huge

contribution to the success which H&H is

today. Although David could have retired,

he still maintained a key role within the

company through his love of the livestock

rings as an auctioneer, mentor and

assisting the land agency with property

sales.

Although many successes and highlights

during his work as an auctioneer, one

of his first proud moments was the sale

of a Texel Shearling Ram, Loosebeare

Imp, in 2003 which sold for 120,000gns.

Another was the sale of the prize winning

Limousin bull, Haltcliffe Vermount, who

sold for a then world Limousin record

price of 100,000gns in 2010. David started

the bidding for this exceptional animal at

10,000gns before seeing the price rise to

make this highest priced breed bull ever

sold at that time.

Throughout his career David maintained

his passion for farming, livestock, and

rural issues. Along with his wife Sheila, he

farmed their 200-acre farm, Park View at

Scaleby, Carlisle from where they started

their pedigree herd of Limousin cattle in

1978.

David has made a hugely important

contribution to the British Limousin Cattle

Society, serving as a Council Member for

a number of years, and concluding with a

two-year Presidency in September 2018.

Outside of work and commitments to

his farm and livestock, David has been

Chairman of the Cumberland Show,

044 www.britishsimmental.co.uk


President of Cumbria Young Farmers Federation and

held numerous other roles within the main Cumbrian

show societies. For a six-year period, which included the

outbreak of BSE, David was also Chairman of the Livestock

Auctioneers Association.

In 2011, he was presented with the Blamire Award for

services in promoting the Cumberland farming industry.

Plus having served for six years as Chairman of the

Pedigree Breeders Committee, David was appointed

Chairman of the NBA in 2013 and currently holds the

position of President.

In 2017, David was awarded the prestigious Farmer’s

Guardian Lifetime Auctioneer Achievement Award in

recognition for the vital role he has played in the market

system and in recognition as an inspirational model; David

was praised as a deserving winner who has influenced

the lives of others, supported communities, pushed for

change and contributed to the positive promotion of the

agricultural industry as a whole.

There are two things which David said he would pass

onto the next generation, to always be honest and to

always remember the little man, David has certainly

passed this on to our teams here.

David will be a great miss to his family and all the H&H

team, but his hard work over the years will live on through

the next generation for many years to come.

REGIONAL CLUB REPORTS

The spring sale at Worcester in May saw John Rixon’s

Lopemede herd achieve the top price of the day, with

Lopemede Idaho selling for 8400 gns. The inaugural

autumn sale then took place in late September with

females selling well considering the pressures on the beef

industry.

October saw the club visit the JCB farm and factory in

Staffordshire, the farm producing everything from beef,

lamb, poultry and venison all organically, for the Daylesford

organic business. A truly impressive set-up, they even have

their own onsite abattoir! I think everybody who attended

would thoroughly recommend the lunch, it was superb.

The year concluded with our annual Christmas meal this

time held at The Riverside, in Stratford upon Avon, which

was followed by the presentation of the herd competion

prizes, and a talk by Mr John Thorley OBE. John is currently

chairman of the Lord Plumb Foundation and gave a very

enjoyable insight into his life.

Finally, may I thank Clare for all her hard work this last

year.

Cornwall Simmental Club

Report by Bridget Olds - Secretary

We began 2019 with our annual dinner in January

at The Plume of Feathers, Mitchell where

members were joined by our 2018 Commercial

Day hosts Phil and Lesley Martyn Uglow. The game of Irish

Bingo was won by John Olds and caused more hilarity then

usual due to the use of a digital selection of numbers and

Daniel Olds acting as caller.

February saw the Bosahan Herd acquiring two bulls at

Stirling and a Brandane heifer joining the Kurlycoat herd.

Kinclaven Infusion P – Linde General x

Strathisla Bubble Geraldine (Omorga Samson)

Knockreagh Immanuel – Kilbride Farm

Warren x Omorga Donna (Sterling Herkules)

During the month we also hosted the annual duel

between the Cornwall Simmental and Truro South Devon

clubs. This year we decided to run a beetle drive, organised

by our president Charlie Harris, with a pin the tail on the

bull adding to the excitement. With the South Devons

winning, we anticipate the returning tussle in 2020.

March featured a member’s social night at country

skittles Townsend., with a meal followed by a game of nine

pins on the cards with a gender battle of men v ladies. The

ladies won with Penny Lally clinching the victory by being

the only individual to scatter all the skittles with a single

bowl.

During April members gathered to enjoy a new event

the “Turnout Lunch” celebrating cattle out at grass and

longer days. A carvery meal at the Fox and Hounds,

Comford was top class. Members were pleased to welcome

Jenny Harris our president’s wife after a nasty fall while

gardening which involved a transfer to the house via

wheelbarrow by Charlie despite broken limbs!!!

In May Cornwall Club members supported the

Worcester Society sale and club members Chegwidden

(Reserve Male Champion

with Chegwidden Jericho) and

Bosahan venturing forth. The

best spring sale outside Scotland

experienced very good trade with

bulls meeting an 85% clearance

and 16 bulls selling to average

£4010. Females also attracted

attention with the dispersal of

Lopemede and Ravensdale herds.

Killiworgie acquired an Ashland

Brandy daughter Weeton Erica’s

Indigo while two young Lopemede

heifers were added to the new

Helston based Hawkhill herd.

SIMMENTAL REVIEW 2019

During the first week of June attention is centred on

our County Show at Wadebridge. This year David Barker

(Heywood) took on the task of judging the eight classes,

respective specials and championships fulfilling his

ambition to adjudicate the Simmental section at all the

English County shows.

Although stock numbers were down, with fewer

exhibitors, the judge had a selection of good quality cattle

meriting rosettes and prizes. Many thanks to exhibitors

working hard to present cattle on show day, interbreed

day in atrocious conditions including the new team of

five competition and finally being caught in the rain again

on Saturday during breed promotion. Local breeders

with entries forward included Killiworgie, Pennytinney

Treverbyn and Bosahan.

Killiworgie took the Female and Overall Championship

with Killiworgie Chrissie’s Izzie a Skerrington Desperado

daughter with the yearling heifer Bosahan Jessica

Star standing in reserve. The Male Championship

went to Treverbyn’s Skylark Geronimo with Bosahan’s

Kinclaven Infusion (P) filling the reserve spot. The Junior

Championship went to Killiworgie Jack The Lad a January

2018 son of Killiworgie Emperor. Other class winners were

Bosahan Jade Magic Baby young heifer and Intermediate

young handlers with Charlie Carey, Treverbyn Jackson

young bull, Killiworgie Buttercup’s Hannah in-calf heifer

and Megan Wellington’s senior cow Chegwidden Daisy’s

Gypsy who also won the best calf special prize with

Pennytinney Jigsaw Puzzle.

Charlie Carey winner - Intermediate Young

Nagle Bullbank and Focus Farm Vets and non-showing

members.

With all effort and enthusiasm for our county show an

initial visit from the Breed Secretary Neil Shand on the first

day resulted in Royal Cornwall making a big impression.

Our Chief Executive felt that the size of show, breed quality

and pitch position of marquee were all major contributors

to raising the profile of the Simmental breed.

A special mention must go to Roger Pascoe for receiving

a lifetime achievement in the livestock section for showing

at Royal Cornwall for 60 years in all breeds of cattle, several

horse sections and acting as a night steward for 10yrs.

The line-up for the Junior Championship headed by Killiworgie Jack The Lad

The end of June saw members and friends travel to the

Clyst herd of Simmentals at Exeter a budding young herd

of cattle owned and generously shown by Steve Hammet

and family. Farming two hundred acres of National Trust

land a short distance from Exeter airport forty suckler cows

are run alongside a flock of three hundred breeding ewes

-Suffolk Mules. We saw thirty five acres of thriving maize

as well as fields down to grass which are strip grazed. The

herd are a mixture of commercial and pedigree dams with

around twenty five pedigrees registered with the Clyst

prefix. Steve is aiming to increase the number of pedigree

females using the embryo transfer and sexed semen

routes and has been successful with Ballinalare Galaxy and

Popes Grandslam through Cogent. Alongside the stock bull

Sway Angus other A.I. sires used include Coose Gambler

and Woodhall Ferrari. His herd presently features maternal

blood lines from Killiworgie, Deerhurst and Ravensdale

secured at Society sales. All the bull calves are finished as

bull beef. Members received a very warm welcome and

enjoyed a visit in glorious sunshine.

JULY

Stithians Show judged by John May (Priorton):

History was made at the 2019 Stithians Show, Cornwall’s

biggest one day show, when Steve and Gill Gummow’s

January 2018 bull won the Beef Interbreed Championship.

The first British Simmental to do so. Killiworgie Jack The

Lad by Killiworgie Emperor stood Champion Simmental

before doing so well before the panel of both beef

and dairy judges. Megan Wellington’s July 2015 cow

Chegwidden Daisy’s Gypsy by Clonagh Tiger Gallant with

her November 18 born heifer calf Pennytinney Jigsaw at

foot took the breed reserve spot. Simmentals also made

their mark in the Interbreed team of three taking the

Archie Opie Cup with Ant Hart’s April born bull Treverbyn

Reserve Inter-breed Pairs

July and August - Over the five one day summer shows

the club runs a competition where members are awarded

points for exhibiting, gaining places and featuring in the

inter-breed results. We feel that all efforts should be

acknowledged for their hard work and representing the

Simmental breed usually in mixed classes.

This year the Cornwall Club award was won by Megan

Wellington Pennytinney herd with 31 points. Awards

included Reserve Simmental Champion at Stithians,

Reserve Interbreed Champion at Liskeard and Other Beef

Breeds Champion at Launceston. Reserve was Steve and

Gill Gummow Killiworgie herd with 30 points. Bosahan,

Wellatree and Treverbyn herds also participated.

2019 OPEN DAY

Over forty commercial and pedigree breeders travelled

from Somerset, Devon and throughout Cornwall to attend

the eighth Cornwall Simmental Open Day on Sunday 28th

July. In glorious sunshine we were treated to a tour of

Castle Farm, Castle-an-Dinas, St Columb Major at the kind

invitation of the Hooper Family.

After welcoming visitors with coffee and cake Cornwall

Simmental Club Chairman, Barrie Wynter presented a

cheque to Kieran Varker (Vice Chairman) and Natalie

Brown (Social Media and Communications Officer)

representing Threemilestone YFC. The £100.00 donation

goes to the club’s 2019 Fundraising for Our Future

Campaign. Threemilestone and District Young Farmers

have the opportunity to purchase the plot of land that the

club hall sits on, including the surrounding car park area

for £52,000. In six months they are half way to their target.

Shown around by David, Steph and Peter we viewed

over one hundred and thirty suckler cows including

pedigree Blondes and Simmentals as well as crossbred

dams. Grazing two hundred and twenty acres of

permanent pasture reclaimed from downs the family’s

hard work has resulted in plentiful grass despite the

hot, dry conditions experienced during spring and early

summer. The farm rises to eight hundred and fifty feet

(two hundred and sixty metres) above sea level. The

surrounding views were marvellous as David remarked

‘one of the best offices in the world’.

Decisions throughout the move from a dairy business to

a suckler beef enterprise have been based on costings and

currently the herd is run to offer top class suckled calves

at Truro Livestock Market from the end of August onwards

with only herd replacements being retained. This allows

dams to recover and gain condition before the majority

calve indoors during the winter months.

With all members of team Hooper also working part

time off the holding, this system aids management and

reduces winter costs while maximising profits. The move

to increase numbers of Simmentals over the last five years

has been driven by temperament, handling ease and the

dams’ ability to grow shapely calves with good confirmation

that have been proved to be very easy to sell.

Following welcome refreshments Cornwall Quality

Livestock Producers representatives, Peter Chapman

Chairman and procurement and marketing officer Shelley

Lockett, gave a presentation on their independent livestock

marketing co-operative owned by its farming members.

As a group of farmers, they benefit from marketing their

stock together the organisation has roots going back to

1975 when a group of enterprising Cornish lamb producers

collaborated to market their early season lambs outside

the county to achieve higher returns.

For over thirty years CQLP have been selling livestock

on behalf of members located throughout the South West

to deadweight outlets across the UK. Livestock farmers

work together to retain strength and independence in

the marketplace, encourage best practice and improve

the profitability of their businesses as well as promoting

Judge’s Comments

Some excellent cross cows. Good calves reared on milk and grass no

creep. Group of lovely pure bred heifers should lead the way to improving

the herd together with investments in good pedigree Simmental stock

bulls. Interesting to see how livestock are run alongside a thriving

vegetable business. Cows are wintered outside.

Steve and Gill favour proper cows with great heads. Their females were in

lovely condition. Some great calves on the ground.

Good cross cattle with some smart calves on the ground. Very good deep

older cows. Pleased to see the transition from Blondes to Simmentals.

Wonderful views from the top of the farm. Steph has a small pedigree herd

running alongside the commercial enterprise moving in the right direction.

Megan is a hard working young breeder who is running a small pedigree

Simmental herd alongside her father’s dairy business. Secured Crackley

Cadette bloodlines that should prove a great foundation.

Piers has exceptional deep bodied cows especially those sired by Snazzy.

Best Barclay females I have seen. Extensive use of A.I. has led to an

interesting mix of types which is a challenge to uniformity across the herd.

Ant is an enthusiastic breeder with lovely sweet feminine females. The

youngstock on the group will further improve the herd.

John and Bridget have a very consistent herd all round. Milky females with

good bags due to the influence of Skerrington Armada. Weaned bull calves

are fed on out of parlour feeders.

Viv is situated in the far west of Cornwall on a farm with contrasting grass

keep to other areas visited. Policy of using A.I. sired home-reared bulls

across the herd. Chegwidden Gismo was the best bull seen during the

competition and his first calves are eagerly awaited.

Barrie’s depth of knowledge about the Simmental breed is impressive. It

was lovely to see a group of good solid cows with old bloodlines

Edward runs an excellent commercial herd. Meeting such an unforgettable

character ended my visits on a high note.

John and Bridget Olds Bosahan herd took the overall

best herd and Steve and Gill Gummow Killiworgie runnersup.

Ant Hart Treverbyn was presented with the small herds

success and empty pens. After a very hard trade with only

four bulls selling members returned home disappointed.

However a better clearance of females in a depressed

bloodlines.

pleased to host a Special Judged Prize Sale of Simmental-

Sale which saw a good catalogued entry of 235 forward

and was a great success. There was a lovely show of over

fifty Simmentals were on offer and different buyers for

each of the winning bunches which surely shows there is

much confidence in the breed.

A busy year concluded with our annual general meeting

in November. Charlie Harris, ‘Bargus’ herd took on the

office of Club President in 2012 and has kindly officiated as

photographer for the club at events and visits and ‘keeper

and curator of the club hospitality tent and equipment.

After seven years of amazing support for the club ably

assisted by his wife Jenny, Charlie stepped down from the

post and nominated Penny Lally ‘Chyanhal’ to take the lead.

As a founder member Penny is looking forward to

celebrating thirty years of the Cornwall club in 2020 the

same year as The British Simmental Society heralds it’s

golden fiftieth anniversary.

The meeting was followed by a presentation by Alex

Brown of AHDB on ‘Choosing Bulls For Better Returns’

using the EBV data collated from carcase traits at slaughter.

Alex urged us all to encourage buyers of our bulls to

record details of the sire with BCMS when registering birth

information.

November and the results of the South West Herd

Competition were announced. Congratulations to

Killiworgie emerging as best medium and overall best herd

winners under Rhys Grenham with Sowenna taking the

best large herd, best bull calf and Reserve Overall.

Finally, the Cornwall Club extends an invitation to visit

us during 2020. Club events will be posted on our website

www.cornwallsimmentalclub.co.uk

With flights into Newquay airport from all parts of the

British Isles it is possible to combine a short break with

We then moved on to the English Winter Fair our

showcase for the year. This year we had the opportunity to

move our stand to the ring side, this proved to be a great

success and we had two very busy days promoting the

breed.

The calf show was very well represented with 25 calves

forward for our judge Richard McInnes. Thank you to all

who helped on the stand especially Mandy who organises

it so well, aided by Kath and of course our lady bakers who

do us proud each year. It really was encouraging to have so

many calves forward and we hope to build on this for next

year.

Line up at the English Winter Fair

This meeting also includes our AGM where I handed

over the reins to Robert Fitton, who will be our chairman

for the next two years. I have had a great two years as

Chairman and would like to thank our anchor Mandy

Green for all her help and support throughout my time.

The year ended with our newly resurrected club

dinner. We had a great night, thank you to everybody for

supporting it, a good time was had by all with great food

and great company. Thankyou to all the sponsors it is

hugely appreciated and again something to build on in the

future.

Big thank you to our guest speaker Mr Frank Wrathall

who made the journey with his wife Trudi from Lancashire

to entertain us and that he certainly did!

I would like to thank Robert for his support as Vice

Chairman and wish him well in his new role as Chairman. I

would also like to thank Mandy once more for her tireless

work and great enthusiasm for our breed and the running

of our club. Thanks also go to our Treasurer Bill Turrell who

is unfortunately incapacitated at the moment and we all

send our best wishes to him for a speedy recovery. Thank

you all for the time you dedicate to the smooth running of

the club.

Finally, with the debacle that is Brexit still hanging over

us we are living in uncertain times but our breed continues

to be in a strong position to move forward.

I would like to wish all members and Simmental

breeders a happy, healthy and successful 2020.

REGIONAL CLUB REPORTS

North East Club

Report by Jayne Pick - Secretary

The Club’s year started with Stirling bull sales

in February. Well Done to John, Val & Craig

Hollingsworth for selling their bull ‘Midhope Ian’

for 5800gns into Gerald, Morag and Douglas Smiths’

Drumsleed Herd.

Newark show & sale followed on in March. The

Hollingsworth team were out in force when their

appropriately named heifer ‘Midhope I Am The Best’ was

awarded the Overall Champion and later sold for the day’s

top price of 4300gns. Andrew & Yvonne Leedham took the

Reserve Champion female spot with their heifer.

Midhope Impressive

Midhope I Am The Best

Lincoln show in June saw the club’s new young member

Katie Boyes being awarded 1st place in the senior young

handler class and reserve overall. Katie also gained a

3rd with her heifer ‘Sledmere Jade’, whilst Club member

Steve Stubbings should be congratulated when his heifer

‘Sledmere Jewel’ collected a 2nd in the same class; Last but

not least ‘Midhope Heavenly light’ was awarded the female

& reserve overall champion whilst her maternal half-sister

‘Midhope I- Light’ collected a 1st and the reserve female

champion position.

Ian & Margaret Steele made the long journey to

Carlisle in April to be rewarded with the Reserve Overall

championship with their heifer ‘Blakewell Dawn’s Isobel’.

Sledmere Jewel

Blakewell Dawn’s Isobel

Worcester show & sale in May brought success again for

the Hollingsworth stable. ‘Midhope Impressive’ a Woodhall

Everhart 13 daughter was sold for the second top price on

the day, 3200gns, to C Fovargue after winning the Female

and Overall Championship.

Many congratulations and a fantastic result all round for

the North East Club.

July brought the Yorkshire Show, there was a very good

show of cattle and plenty of spectators around the ring,

which is always great to see. The show seems to go from

strength to strength and draws in huge crowds over the

three days. Congratulations to David & Lesley Sapsed who

were awarded the overall championship on show day with

their bull ‘Heathbrow Important 17’ and then went on the

claim the prestigious interbreed beef championship the

following day.

SIMMENTAL REVIEW 2019

Heathbrow Important

Driffield show followed a week after the Yorkshire.

‘Midhope Heavenly Light’ followed in her mothers’

footsteps by winning the overall and interbreed title whilst

‘Sledmere Jewel’ achieved a first place and the reserve

champion spot.

Unfortunately, due to ill health Brian Lundy dispersed

his well-known ‘Caistor herd’ at Selby market in late July.

Brian has been a stalwart of the breed for many years and

his depth of knowledge is extraordinary. The cattle on the

day looked superb and I am sure they will go on to breed

very well for their new owners.

The young members trip took place in late August.

Congratulations to Katie Boyes who was awarded 2nd

place in the junior team event when paired with Lizzie

Harding.

Grangewood Jumbo

Many congratulations to all Club members who have

exhibited cattle at shows and sales this year.

Neil Shand attended a club meeting in late October

to talk to members about the vision for the breed in the

future and the promotional aspects the Society are doing

to lift the profile of the breed. Members raised several

points of concern and a good discussion ensued. Many

thanks to Neil for making the long trip up North.

Carlisle Agri Expo calf show was held on the 1st

November. Club members Andrew & Yvonne Leedham

collected a 1st and reserve junior champion with their

heifer ‘Grangewood Polly’s Karina’ and a 3rd with their

young bull calf ‘Grangewood Kansas 19’ The day was

topped off with Callum winning the young handlers. Well

Done.

Neil Shand presenting Katie Boyes and Lizzie Harding

with their 2nd place cards for the Junior team.

The club had a visit in September to the home of the

‘Goskins herd’ by kind invitation of John, Elizabeth and

David Greensit. The herd was the overall winner in last

year’s herd competition. Members were treated to a lovely

afternoon of walking around the impressive herd of young

heifers, cows & calves and new stock bull. All the cattle

behaved impeccably and we were all very grateful on our

return to the house to be greeted with a delicious BBQ!

The Hollingsworth team were out again at their local

Penistone show in September, they took the Interbreed

title with ‘Midhope Heavenly light’ and her superb

December born heifer calf at foot. Always a great feeling to

take the top accolade on home turf.

Worcester sale came at the end of September. Topping

the male trade was ‘Grangewood Jumbo 18’ from Andrew &

The Club’s Annual Dinner was held in early November

at the same venue as last year, The Bridge, Walshford,

Wetherby. Members enjoyed a lovely carvery meal and a

very welcome sociable evening.

2019 has been very challenging due to low beef prices

and growing anti-meat campaigns. I think we all have a role

to play in promoting the benefits of beef production, both

for its nutritional qualities and the important role it plays in

helping to manage our unique countryside.

Finally, July 2020 sees the 50th Anniversary of the first

Simmental imports into the UK, and the foundation of

the British Simmental Cattle Society. Hope it will be a very

successful year for everyone concerned.

REGIONAL CLUB REPORTS

North West Simmental Club

Report by Sarah Ford - Secretary

Our year started with the AGM held at the

Auctioneer, Carlisle where the club officers were

re-elected, with Alan Tallantire staying as Chairman,

Sarah Ford as secretary and the committee the same.

Mike Sanderson who is County NFU Advisor for Penrith

very kindly came and talked to us about his life working

alongside farmers with amusing tales to tell.

It has been another interesting year in the life of

farming. This year we have been bored by Brexit and the

vegan hating farmers, although we did have a vegan come

to look at our lambs to cheer herself up???!!! The weather

has thrown up its usual hazards which if nothing else keeps

us all learning!

Unfortunately our annual farm walk didn’t take place so

the highlight of the clubs year was the Agri Expo where the

club helps run the Simmental hospitality and promotion

stand. We supply the stand with some local cattle showing

the versatility of the Simmental with club members making

a lot of teas and coffees. The calf show was very well

attended with excellent sponsors and good entries, my

personal favourite of the day was seeing the children, of

some of the “not so old” members, showing their parents

how it should be done!

Callam Leedham and Thomas Gwynne in deep

conversation obviously about Simmentals!

HERD VISITS TO NORTH EAST SCOTLAND.

In July the club organised a tour of four herds in North

East Scotland.

As well as approximately 50 Scottish club members, we

also welcomed members from the East Anglian, South East,

and Northern Ireland clubs.

The first herd we visited was Gary and Angela Christies

Rockytop herd at Glass near Huntly, where we toured their

pedigree and commercial herds before having a lovely

lunch, kindly provided by Gary and Angela.

After lunch, we visited the Stronach family’s Islavale

herd at Keith. After touring the herd, Meurig James gave a

very useful classification demonstration using some of the

Islavale cows.

In the evening a BBQ was provided by our hosts and a

Ceilidh followed.

Sunday morning, we travelled inland to Michael Durno’s

Auchorachan herd at Glenlivet, at over ft the hills were

quite a novelty for the East Anglian group!

After lunch we went back down to Keith to visit Philip

Simmers newly established Backmuir herd, following a

tour of both pedigree herds of Simmentals and Luings and

a large commercial herd, an excellent Sunday roast was

kindly provided by our hosts.

All who took part in the weekend thoroughly enjoyed it,

and I’m sure a similar event will be organised in another

area soon.

Thanks again to all our hosts.

Our Scottish National Simmental Show returned to Kelso

this year for our 12 th National Show; as usual the evening

before the Show we all attended the BBQ which was

hosted by Scotmin and the steaks kindly donated by ABP.

Despite a smaller than usual entry for our Judge to

place, it was of the usual high standard that has become

the norm at this Show.

Despite very heavy rain causing an interruption in the

Judging, our Judge David Donnelly placed Drumsleed Hivy

from the Smith family as his Male & Overall Champion,

with Sterling FCUK Impuls, from Reece and Andrew

Simmers as Female & Reserve Overall Champion

We would like to thank our Sponsors, who without, we

South East Club

Report by Chris Patmore - Chairman

Our AGM this year was held in March at Michael and

Jackie Hind’s farm prior to them giving up farming

and moving to a brand-new house. Unfortunately,

some of us didn’t quite make it as we were parked on the

M25 which I guess is the norm during the week, but this

was a Sunday morning.

their game. After a tour round we were shown some cattle

classification by an expert and then what a spread was laid

on for us, BBQ, plenty of liquid refreshment and to top it

off a few dance moves for good measure.

Stronach Heifers on Show

Photo call for the South East gang

Early July saw several of us meet at Southend airport for

a trip to Scotland organised by Simon Key in conjunction

with the Scottish club. We flew to Aberdeen where upon

arrival we jumped into a minibus and headed up to the

Premier Inn at Elgin.

Sunday saw us off to Michael Durno’s Auchorachan herd

again some wonderful animals benefiting from plenty of

grass. Here again we were wined and dined but on a tight

schedule we had to board the coach for our second visit of

the day to A & R Simmers Backmuir herd, they purchased

Henry Widdicombe’s Starline herd and had also purchased

the very successful show heifer Sterling FCUK Impuls ,what

an amazing set up that was , unfortunately although yet

again plenty of food and drink was available we had to be

at the airport by mid-afternoon so only managed a whistle

stop tour round some of the cattle. Thank you, Simon, for

organising and the Scottish club for allowing us to join you.

South East & Scottish group at Gary Christie’s

Our first full day was Saturday where we initially visited

Gary Christie’s Rockytop herd again similar to our trip to

Southern Ireland last year no shortage of grass and we all

know there is no substitute for grass where condition on

cattle is concerned, we were wined and dined more than

adequately, then loaded up again on the coach and off to

the Stronach’s Islavale herd in Keith. I must say what an

impressive show of cattle no wonder they are at the top of

September saw us visiting the Heathbrow herd of David

some members from Wales. As always, the hospitality was

Onto the show reports where the Borlase family had

tremendous success with Sacombe Dandelion Oma at

several shows culminating in Interbreed champion at the

REGIONAL CLUB REPORTS

South West Club

Report by Dawn Shapland - Secretary

INTERBREED QUIZ

The South West Club started the year with a very

creditable fourth place, in the Interbreed Quiz. Eleven

teams took part, with just one point covering second, third

and fourth positions, with a team of local vets from the

Mount Veterinary Practice storming away into first place.

David Barker did his usual wonderful job in organising

the event and with his great friend, Jack Ellicott, running

the raffle, over £230 was raised and has been donated to

Musgrove Park Hospital’s, Beacon Centre.

A.G.M.

Oake Manor Golf Club was the venue for the Club A.G.M

and Dinner.

Mr Nick Green, Farm Operations Manager for Alvis Bros

and one of the Trustees of the Charity, FarmLink was our

speaker for the evening. His speech was much appreciated

and well received by all present.

Jack Ellicott’s raffle raised £92 and auctioning of a

bottle of Whisky a further £20. The generous donation of

Skerrington Armada Straws, from John and Bridget Olds,

resulted in a final bid of £150 in a silent auction.

In the words of our Treasurer, David Edwards, “The

A.G.M was a financial success as well as a very, very

pleasant and sociable evening”.

The Club wishes to thank all our Worcester Sale

sponsors for their support and generosity:

Mole Valley Farmers Ltd, Crediton Milling, For Farmers,

ABP Langport, Shearwell Data, Torch Farm Vets, Bosahan

Simmentals, Skylark Simmentals and Paul Tucker Kepak/

St Merryn. Thanks also to Duncan Short of Towergate Farm

Insurance, for their sponsorship of the Rosettes for both

Worcester sale and the Herd Competition.

Grangewood Jupiter – Male Champion

OAKHAM TREASURES

In late April we had a visit to Oakham Treasures, the

largest privately owned collection of farming and retail

memorabilia in the UK.

The event was well supported by club members and

friends, all of whom thoroughly enjoyed their day out.

WORCESTER SALE

With Clive Roads drawing tremendous interest from

McCartney’s cliental, a packed ring ensured there was keen

interest from both pedigree and commercial breeders.

Stags auctioneer, Richard Turner did a first-rate job in

assisting Clive with the sale.

In the Show classes judge Rob Hewlett awarded

Grangewood Jupiter (3,400 gns) Champion Male with Viv

Hall’s Chegwidden Jerico (3,400 gns) filling the Reserve

spot. Female and Overall Champion was Midhope

Impressive. This appropriately named in-calf heifer from

the Hollingsworth family, sold for 3,200 gns.

Mr Rixon’s, Lopemede Idaho topped the trade at

8,400 gns. Second top price of 6,800 gns was for Richard

Cummings’ Cwarre Idaho. Due to age restrictions, these

two top priced animals were excluded from the show

classes. The Olds family’s Bosahan Illiad was next best at

4,500 gns. Bosahan Infinity changed hands for 4,300 gns.

Midhope Impressive – Female & Overall Champion

DEVON COUNTY SHOW

Chosen by judge Chris Martingale, Rhys Grenham’s

Boars Head Nelly 7th and Karina 8th, were the Overall

and Female Champion and Reserve Female Champion

respectively.

Taking the male honours and Overall Reserve

Champion was the Popes Barclay sired Skylark Infamous,

bred and shown by Rachel Scott-Douglas, her parents

Graham and Sarah and her brother Sam. Their Bosahan

Galileo sired Skylark Jimbob, won his Junior bull class

and the following day was awarded Interbreed Reserve

Champion Male, by judge Clive Roads.

Many thanks all that assisted with the club stand,

welcomed guests and contributed to the refreshments.

ROYAL BATH AND WEST SHOW

Aled Davis had the task of judging at this year’s Royal

Bath and West Show. He awarded the top honours, Male

and Overall Champion, to the Tilbrook Earl sired Beanhill

Highness, bred and exhibited by James and Belinda

Kimber. Reserve Overall and Female Champion was

Beanhill Ellie from the same stable. Sadly, there were only

two exhibitors present, the Kimber family and Miss J Lewis.

We can but hope that the breed will be better supported in

2020.

POOL FARM HERD VISIT

On September 27th a Society Open Day took place at

the home of David and Kath Edwards and their daughter

Fran Ford. The event was well attended and proved to be

a great showcase of the breed to both commercial and

pedigree breeders alike.

Ed Simmons from Tibbs and Simpson veterinary

practice gave a talk on the pelvic measurement

programme in place at Pool Farm. It was an interesting

topic and I’m sure some that attended will now introduce it

into their own herd management systems.

Neil Shand spoke on Sustainable Beef Production and

the present state of the beef industry.

“Sustainability for the Farmer is about looking after the

landscape and waterways, their animal’s welfare, being a

good neighbour and a useful member of the community”

An excellent summing up of something we should all make

great efforts to achieve.

Two trips were made by tractor and trailer to take

anyone who wished to view the stock. The outstanding

animals alone, the view of the surrounding countryside,

was a treat in itself.

Well done to the winners of the two competitions held

on the day:

Brooks Carey with Stock Judging and Steve Shapland

with “Guess the Weight.

Thank you to: Crediton Milling, for provided the drinks,

British Simmental Society for providing the food. Roy Loud

for judging the heifers, Adrian Curry for the use of his

tractor, North Somerset Show for the loan of their trailer

and to Jack Ellicott for arranging a raffle.

Most important of all is to thank David, Kath and Fran

for hosting such thoroughly enjoyable and successful

event.

AWARDS EVENING

A terrific entry of eighteen herds entered this year’s herd

competition. Owing to other commitments our judge was

unable to attend the presentations evening at Oake Manor.

A message from the Judge Rhys Grenham - “I would

like to thank the South West club for asking me to judge

the competition I thoroughly enjoyed it and apologies for

taking a bit longer than anticipated to get it completed.

It was very nice to get around the area and see

members and their cattle, it’s always nice to see different

set ups and breeding”.

Unfortunately, the Judge wasn’t the only one unable to

attend – a flat battery caused problems for our Chairman,

Adrian Curry and his father Len. Treasurer, David Edwards

had a prior engagement. On behalf of the Club I’m afraid

it was down to me to present the trophies and rosettes

to the winners. Particular thanks go to all that attended, I

hope you enjoyed the evening and felt the long journey,

worthwhile.

Due to the dreadfully inclement weather during the

Autumn, two events were cancelled. The first of these

was to have been a visit to the Hawkey family’s Sowenna

Herd, the second a visit to the Gummow’s, Killiworgie Herd.

Hopefully we’ll be able to re-arrange these visits in 2020.

Judging by the Herd Competition results, it will certainly be

well worth the trip!

CORNWALL PEDIGREE CALF SHOW

As long-standing supporters of the Cornwall Pedigree

Calf Show, gaining Breed Champion with Winford Jasmine,

was a much-deserved success for Len and Adrian Curry.

Sired by Denizes Exclusive, Jasmine is the first calf from

Killiworgie Hope, purchased from the Gummow family at

Worcester in 2017.

our Annual Dinner, held at the Cottage Inn, Llandeilo. Our

AGM was held shortly afterwards where the following were

elected:

Chairman - Dafydd Jones

Vice Chairman - Aled Davies

Secretary - Anwen Jones

Treasurer - Aled Davies

Vice Treasurer - Aled Evans

Young Members Representative - Callum Croft

Flowing into February at the Stirling bull sales, Richard

and Debbie Cumming enjoyed great success winning their

class with Cwarre Iowa who later sold for 6,500gns.

At Aberystwyth Show the Champion was awarded to

Cwarre Jester from Richard and Debbie Cumming. Jester

then went on to become Interbreed Male Champion.

The highlight of our year as always is the Royal Welsh

Show. Despite a low number of entries, the breed enjoyed

a successful week. Judge Mr David Donnelly awarded

Champion to Sacombe Dandelion Oma from the Borlase

family, who also claimed the Reserve Champion with

Sacombe Joker. Later that day, Sacombe Dandelion Oma

was awarded Interbreed Champion. To celebrate the 100th

Show, a one-off Champion of Champions competition

was held. Dandelion Oma successfully beat the Dairy and

Commercial competition to represent the Bovines and was

awarded Reserve Champion of Champions.

Cwarre Iowa

Richard and Debbie continued their success at the

Worcester Sale in May where they sold Cwarre Idaho for

6,800gns.

Sacombe Dandelion Oma

Following on from the Royal Welsh Show was the Welsh

National Show held at Pembrokeshire County Show,

a tremendous show of Simmentals was judged by Mr

John May. Champion was awarded to Cwarre Jester from

Richard and Debbie Cumming, and Reserve to Crugmelyn

Icing Sugar from Gethin and Enfys Lloyd.

Cwarre Idaho

Cothi Bridge Show represents the start of the showing

season for our members, where the Francis family were

Champion with Kennox Ike.

Thank you, and congratulations to all who continue to

support and promote our breed at all the Summer shows.

Another highlight of 2019 was the Herd Competition in

September and special thanks goes to Ann and Tony Jukes

who travelled the country to judge the herd competition.

An award presentation and herd visit was held on the

Sunday, kindly hosted by Wyn Jenkins, Penwern herd.

Champion herd was awarded to Marc and Emma Evans,

Dewisland.

Many thanks to Ann and Tony for giving up their time,

and for Wyn Jenkins and family for hosting.

Trip 2019

This year the Young Members trip headed off to

Scotland. Once again, we had a good turnout of

young members who were all keen to get stuck in

and enjoy the next couple of days.

Our first place to visit was Mr & Mrs Ward & Sons

of West Mains Farm, Lanark – Westridge herd. Gareth

Ward explained about their farm which is a family

run business near the market town of Lanark;

consisting of mixed beef, sheep and arable

enterprises.

Afterwards we took a tour of their cattle. The majority

of their cattle are Simmental X, with some Aberdeen

Angus and Shorthorn. They also have their pedigree

herd, known as Westridge Simmentals, and you will

often see them selling bulls at the Stirling bull sales. The

majority of calves are born in May, June and July, with a

smaller percentage left to calve in the Autumn.

112 www.britishsimmental.co.uk


Following the farm tour. David Lowry gave a stock

judging demonstration. These always prove a useful tool

in guiding the young members which traits to look for

when selecting cattle.

SIMMENTAL REVIEW 2019

To end the day, the Ward family kindly provided us

with a delicious BBQ. This was greatly received by all

and was an excellent way to end the first day of the

trip. Many thanks to the Ward family and to everyone

involved in making the day so interesting and enjoyable.

On the Saturday we headed off to Richard McCulloch’s

Overhill House herd in Armadale. This was a fun packed

day with lots to learn and amazing memories to be

made. We started with Richard McCulloch giving a

detailed talk about his business, how he operates and

manages his cattle.

After touring their cattle, Cammie Jackson and

Gary Patterson gave an impressive cattle dressing

demonstration which everyone thoroughly enjoyed,

whilst gaining valuable knowledge; which I’m sure they

will be able to utilise in the future.

The young members then got to put in to practice

what they had learnt the day before and the main stock

judging event commenced. Congratulations to Molly

Bradley from Northern Ireland for achieving the Overall

Winner.

YOUNG MEMBERS

Richard and his team kindly provided us with a hog

roast lunch, a delicious steak dinner, was later followed

by a disco and bucking bronco. Our sincere thanks to

Richard and all his team for providing us with such an

amazing day; we were well and truly spoilt.

Everyone left extremely full but delighted to have

had such a great couple of days; learning, laughing,

socialising and making lifelong friends along the way.

JUDGE:

CECIL MCILWAINE

It was a great honour and privilege to

judge the 151st Balmoral Show. I would

like to thank the committee of the Royal

Ulster Agricultural Society for inviting me.

The weather was excellent, and this was

a bonus for the exhibitors and spectators

alike.

Due to the show being held early in the

season and many part-time breeders the

number of cattle forward was relatively

small, but credit to the exhibitors, the

quality was of a high standard.

With just two exhibits in the cow class,

first place went to Ballinalare Farm Chanel

followed by Guhard Dorothy. These were

two useful cows.

As there was a single entry in the senior

heifer class first place went to Ballinalare

Farm Ivory. In the intermediate heifer class,

pole position was held by Ranfurly Weikel

23rd followed by Breaghey Leading Lady

and claiming the third ticket was Lisglass

Isla. In the Junior Heifer class Cleenagh

Jessica claimed first place followed closely

in second place by Roscultan Jemina. These

were two super heifers which should

mature into excellent cows. In third position

was another decent heifer namely Bannhill

Farm Jinx.

With no entries in the Senior bull class

the Junior Male section was led by Ranfurly

Jameson J2 18, an outstanding young bull

with tremendous power and scale. In second place was

Bridgewater Farm Jed, this was another smart young bull

with good potential followed by Bridgewater Farm Jenson

from the same farm. Finally, in fourth place was Lisglass

Jasper. The bulls in this class were all a credit to their

breeders.

My Male and Overall Champion was undisputedly

Ranfurly Jameson J2 18 and claimed reserve spot in the

Interbreed Beef Recorder class. Reserve Male and Reserve

Overall went to the Bridgewater herd with Bridgewater

Farm Jed. Female Champion was Ranfurly Wiekel 23rd I11

with Cleenagh Jessica in reserve position.

Finally, I would like to commend the exhibitors for

presenting an excellent display of cattle and extend my

sincere thanks to all the Stewards for carrying out their

duties in a professional manner.

NATIONAL

JUDGE:

ANNE MACPHERSON

It was an honour to be asked to judge the

2019 English National Show at The Royal

Norfolk Show. Thank you to the Society

and Show for a very well organised day and

thank you to the exhibitors for all their time

and effort in turning out such a super show

of Simmies.

In the Junior Heifer class Sacombe

Hawaii’s Jessica caught my eye as soon as

she came in. Very sweet, well fleshed and

a very good mover, just my kind of heifer.

This heifer went on to be Junior and Reserve

Female Champion. Second place went to

Heathbrow’s much younger Girlies Jewel, a

very correct, well fleshed heifer for her age,

third was Ashland Lucy Jezebel, another

quality heifer.

The second class again had a clear

winner in Heathbrow Jasmine, a powerful

heifer, but still very feminine. There wasn’t

a lot between second and third, Brandane

Jane just having slightly more flesh than

Perrywood Jasmine.

The third heifer class was easily won by

Cade Irresistible, a similar style of heifer to

the winner of the previous class, fleshy but

ROYAL SHOW REPORTS

HEATHBROW IMPORTANT - Male Champion, Reserve Overall

Champion, Reserve Best of Breed, and 1st place Bull, born in 2017.

still feminine. Storersmith Isla in second was

a nice long heifer, just unlucky to have the

Cade heifer overpower her.

Popes Princess Immie gave me another

clear winner in the fourth class, a fleshy

heifer who paraded very well. The next two

heifers were a similar type, but Beeches

Isabella had more width through the front

end compared to Penton Indigo.

Two very powerful heifers led class 5.

Popes Nellys Ilia taking first, being the more

feminine and better balanced of the two.

Heathbrow Girlies Ivy stood second. The

Jukes’ Swallowhill Isabelle stood third, a lovely

long female, just not carrying as much flesh

as the first two.

We just had two entries in the Junior cow

class, both working hard with nice calves

at foot. Theberton Honey was the deeper

bodied of the two with a bit more shoulder

than her herd mate Hollie.

The Intermediate cow class was led by

Kennox Divas Gena, being the widest and

biggest of the three. Sway Gorgeous Girl

stood second, another big cow, but just not

having the width through the front end of the

first cow. Fircovert Glamour Bluebell came in

third, just missing the scale of the other two.

In the Senior cow class, I found my

Champion. I immediately fell for Sacombe

Dandelion Oma when she floated into the

ring saying, “Look at me!”. She wasn’t the

biggest cow in the class, but to me she was

everything a Simmie cow should be. Very

feminine, well balanced, good

length and width, especially

through the backend, good

locomotion, loads of milk, and

a super young bull calf at foot.

Second place went to Theberton

Emma 2nd, another well

balanced, breedy cow.

The first class of males was

won by Sacombe Joker, maybe

a bit raw on the day, but the

most correct and well put

together young bull in the class.

Second was the heavier, but

less balanced Popes Jethro, and

third went to the nice shaped

Scotland Hill Jackaroo.

The second bull class found

me my Junior Male Champion

in Scotland Hill Juggernaut, a

growthy, well fleshed young

bull. Second and third were

two similar bulls, Storersmith

Jumanji and Penton Jolly,

unfortunately Jolly was lame, so

took third.

My Male and Reserve Overall

Champion came from the next

class, again a clear winner,

Heathbrow Important towered

above the other two entries in

the class. His length, cleanness

and power are what we have

been looking for in a stockbull,

and I’m pleased to say that

he has since come home to

Blackford. Second place went

to the bouncy, but well-made

Fircovert Isaac with Shannock

Ice-T being third.

The four senior bulls

were split into two types,

my preference was for the

smoother fleshed more

traditional Drumsleed Explosion

in first and Sway Hector in

second.

I was very proud to see the

Simmental team of five going on

to win the prestigious Heygates

Interbreed Team of Five

competition, and Heathbrow

Important taking the Male

and then Supreme Interbreed

Champion later in the show.

Thank you again to everyone

involved for their hospitality and

hard work at the show.

JUDGE’S REPORT BY:

STEWART STRONACH

CORSKIE DISCO - Best Female, Best Animal Bred by Exhibitor, Best Cow with

Calf at Foot (judged as a pair), Overall Champion & 1st place Female, born on

or before 31st December 2013, in Milk or Certified in Calf at time of Show

Royal

Show

HIGHLAND

JUDGE:

STEWART STRONACH

Firstly I would like to thank RHASS

for their kind invitation to judge the

2019 Simmental classes at the Royal

Highland Show. It was a great honour and

privilege and definitely one off the bucket

list. It was a cool, dry and blustery day,

so good conditions for showing cattle.

As I waited in the ring for the first class I

can honestly say I had butterflies in my

stomach, excited with anticipation for what

the morning ahead had in store for me!

There were 12 heifers in the first class

which all looked stunning entering the

ring. I placed the youngest heifer 1st from

Michael Barlow, Ashland Lucy Jezebel,

a long heifer with great style. 2nd was

Pitmudie Jamaica who was of a similar

type to the 1st place heifer. 3rd went to

Sacombe Hawaii Jessica, a different style of

heifer carrying more flesh. Cairnveiw Rea

took 4th, another good heifer with a great

top.

The second class kept up the standard

and my first pick was Frank Gwynne’s

Brandane J-Lo, a very correct heifer with

length, power and great locomotion.

Standing next to her in 2nd was Corskie

Joanna, another good female however

she was carrying more condition and

not the same power as my 1st place. 3rd

was Garmouth Glory’s Jessica from Laura

Beattie, 4th came from Richard McCulloch

with Overhill House Joon and Perrywood

Jasmine was 5th.

The next class of females, born

between July and the end of December

128 www.britishsimmental.co.uk


2017 presented me with an easy first,

Corskie Illusion, who I thought at this

stage would probably go further on the

day. In 2nd was a really fleshy heifer from

Heather Duff, Pitmudie Irish Mist, followed

closely in 3rd place by Overhill House Ice

Maiden. 4th went to a very well presented

Newbiemains Isla.

The fourth class of heifers was very well

supported with 9 animals forward. There

was an obvious first in this class, Sterling’s

FCUK Implus, from Reece and Andrew

Simmers. A very eye catching animal, with

an abundance of breed character, very

fleshy but moving well round the ring.

2nd was Garmouth Dumandy Isabella, 3rd

Pitmudie Florin 2nd, 4th Corskie Inita and

Jim and Patricia Goldie collected the 5th

and 6th rosettes.

I found the next class extremely hard

to judge, comparing in calf heifers and

heifers with a calf at foot is always a

difficult task I find. After some serious

deliberation I placed 1st a very sweet and

milky heifer from Michael Durno in the

form of Auchorachan Letta H1 . She was

working very hard and making a grand job

of her heifer calf. 2nd and 3rd went to the

Green family from Corskie with Corskie

Herb and Corskie Harp . Harry Houldey

took 4th with Clonagh Honey Cream.

There was only one entry in the next

class, Cairnview Tilly 4th, she walked round

the ring, moving very well and with a great

calf at foot.

The oldest cow class, born before

2013 only had one animal forward also,

Corskie Disco. She immediately owned

the ring with her twin calves. At 7 years

old her locomotion was excellent moving

gracefully with impressive style and breed

character. I was looking forward to how

she would stand up later in the day and

thinking she was going to be hard to beat.

The junior female championship was

next on the list to judge and I was very

pleased with my 1st prize junior heifers

as they returned to the ring. The Junior

Female Championship went to Corskie

Illusion, she had tremendous length, width

and locomotion, a great cow in the making.

Reserve went to Newbiemains I’m a Gem.

The Overall Female Championship was

next and the powerful, elegant Corskie

Disco was an easy winner with Sterling’s

FCUK Implus from the Simmers boys an

obvious reserve.

Moving onto the first of the male

classes, where I feel more at home judging,

STERLING FCUK IMPULS - Reserve Best Female, Reserve

Overall Champion & 1st place Female, born on or

between 1st January & 30th June 2017

DRUMSLEED HIVY 16 - Best Bull, Breeder of Best Bull &

1st place Bull born on or before 31st December 2016

CORSKIE ILLUSION - Best Junior Female, Reserve Junior Champion,

ROYAL SHOW REPORTS

there were 7 bulls forward. The red ticket

in this class went to Lynfield Joseph, a

long well grown bull who moved well. 2nd

went to the Smith family from Drumsleed

in the form of Drumsleed Jura and 3rd to

Nick and Nadia Gwynne with Chestermann

Jimmy.

The bull class aged between January

and March 2018 had a large entry of 9.

Greencap Jaeger was my pick, a long dark

red bull showing great style and potential.

2nd went to a real muscle machine, Dargill

JJ from D C McLaren & Partners followed

by Chestermann Jupiter in 3rd and a close

4th for Drumsleed Jaeger.

The senior bull class had two entries,

both Denizes Hamish and Drumsleed Hivy

showed great breed character however

it was Hivy that took the red rosette on

the day as he carried himself well, moved

effortlessly around the ring with an

outstanding presence.

My Junior Male Champion went to

Greencap Jaeger from Colin Inglis. A

very eye catching bull in the ring and I

remember thinking he should go on to

become a future pedigree stock bull.

Jaeger also went on to become the Overall

Junior Champion, with the reserve going

to Corskie Illusion. Both great examples of

the Simmental breed, Illusion a modern

and well-rounded heifer however Jaeger

just had more style and show character on

the day.

Drumsleed Hivy returned to the ring to

compete against Greencap Jaeger for the

Overall Male Championship. I really liked

Colin’s young bull but the sheer power of

Hivy made him my worthy Champion.

I was very happy as my male and female

champions entered the ring for the final

time. Two tremendous animals which had

left me with a very hard decision to make.

But the gracefulness of Corskie Disco

had won me over, she was a stunning

cow and a true matriarch of the breed

and I was delighted to award her and the

Green family the RHS 2019 Championship.

Sterling’s FCUK Impuls took the reserve

Champion, a heifer who I’m sure will have

plenty of success at shows in the future!

As I reflect on my judging, I’d like to take

the opportunity to say how very proud I am

to be part of the Simmental breed. I was

very impressed by the presentation and

quality of the animals paraded in front of

me and I would like to congratulate every

exhibitor for taking part and showcasing

the breed for all to see.

ROYAL SHOW REPORTS

Royal WELSH

Show

JUDGE:

DAVID DONNELLY

When asked to judge your own

breed at a show it is and will

always remain an honour and

something you never forget.

When that request is to Judge a ROYAL

SHOW your hopes and expectations move

to another level.

Although honoured and grateful to

be asked to Judge the ROYAL WELSH

SHOW my hopes of having large numbers

of quality cattle paraded with classes

being contested by 6 or more in each

class, all looking to receive the red card

never materialized with only 2 members

from Wales (2 animals), 1 member from

Scotland (1 animal), 1 member from

England (5 animals) attending bringing an

overall total of 8 animals to contest all of

the classes.

As a society I think the time has arrived

when we along with others provide money

to members to help cover entry costs/

time, especially if we want to be seen

promoting our breed at certain large

shows to try and halt this downward trend

of animals forward.

The Highland/English National clearly

don’t need the same kind of input,

however clearly the Welsh and possibly

Balmoral along with other more local

well-known venues could be looked at as

requiring special support.

SIMMENTAL REVIEW 2019

ROYAL SHOW REPORTS

The animals forward were of great credit to their owners

who had taken the time and trouble to attend, especially

those from England and Scotland as without these numbers

we would have been in a terrible position.

It would be wrong of me to start a report without

highlighting the outstanding animal on the day from the

Borlase family, Sacombe Dandelion-Oma who I placed Female

and Overall Champion and who then went on to become the

Supreme Interbreed Champion of the ROYAL WELSH SHOW,

from such a low number of animals forward the Simmental

breed/members had still managed to present/receive the

top award and my/our thanks must go to the Borlase family

for supporting our breed and hope they continue with Jimmy

bringing their cattle out as only he can.

The young bull class had the most entered (4) with the red

card going to Sacombe Joker (F) a very nice well-balanced bull

closely followed by the two Welsh members entries from the

Jones/Davies families.

There was only one animal in the 2017 Heifer Class: -

Overhill House Ice Maiden from the McCulloch family.

There were 2 animals in the 2018 Heifer Class: -

1 st Perrywood Jasmine (Miss B Borlase)

2 nd Sacombe Jenna-Laube (Mr & Mrs P.B and J.A Borlase)

Initially although disappointed with regards numbers

forward, this changed in the afternoon, where we were all

excited especially yours truly to see our Champion going on

to receive the top Interbreed honours.

Well done and thank you to those of you who attended/

paraded animals and provided a welcome for everyone on

the members stand.

Drumsleed Hivy 16 – Male & Overall Champion, 1st Place Bull, born before 31st December 2017

SCOTTISH

NATIONAL

Show

JUDGE:

MR DAVID

DONNELLY

The morning of the show and you

arrive at the ground unsure of where

to go/who to meet and apprehensive

and hopeful that at least the majority agree

with your choices in the classes.

With then a Champion probably a

female, knowing my preference, going

forward to represent the breed in the

Interbreed.

Well clearly nothing was going to plan

as the start of showing brought torrential

rain and I began to wonder was my day and

those having animals forward to be spoilt

with discussions held about judging inside.

These were soon put to one side with

those showing having none of it, bringing

animals out and my sincere thanks goes to

each and every one of you for making my

day special and giving me the opportunity

to judge the Scottish National Show this

year in Kelso.

The bull classes in age order (July/

December 2018) saw two very equally

presented animals forward with the nod

going to Newbiemains Jax over Braidwood

Jed from Ms. Moffat.

The next class (April/June 2018) saw a

very correct/well balanced young bull from

the Gwynne family take first place over

those from the Smith/Goldie and Bishop

families.

The January born bulls were then

paraded and Chestermann Jupiter

immediately caught my eye as definitely

one for the future and he was placed first

above Jagger from the Smith family.

SIMMENTAL REVIEW 2019

ROYAL SHOW REPORTS

The senior bulls were brought forward

and bearing in mind the weather, here the

three bulls walked on through the mud/

rain and were a credit to our breed.

I brought forward Drumsleed Hivy as

the winner of this class, closely followed by

Iceman from Jim and Patricia Goldie with

then Jacob from the Houldey family.

Drumsleed Hivy went on to be my

Overall Male Champion followed by Iceman

as the reserve.

The females began with a very good

class in the April to August 2018 age group

with 5 forward.

My winner Woodhall Jocelyn was a

very smart heifer who caught my eye

on entering and went on to be given the

Overall Junior Female Championship.

The Woodhall herd had 2 others in

the class who were split by the Simmers

families Backmuir Kreole Jazz with Manor

Park Jess Wilde who was giving away age/

size.

In the next age class, January to March

2018 of the two forward Brandane J-Lo took

the honours and went on to be tapped out

as the Reserve Junior Female.

I had been told there would be animals

forward who would catch the eye and that

had certainly been the case with the males

and juniors paraded to that point.

ROYAL SHOW REPORTS

Woodhall Jocelyn – Junior Female Champion, 1st Place

Heifer, born between 1st April & 31st August 2018.

The rain had slowed down and in came 4

heifers born in 2017 with Sterling FCUK Impuls

looking every bit as good as she had when I have

seen her both on the show circuit and again at

Stirling taking the red card.

Followed by heifers from the Goldie and Lyle

families that would have red cards on other

occasions.

The cow class unfortunately had only one entry

David Craigs Kennox Taras Gem who I had been

looking forward to see now she had calved.

Clearly the calf was being done well and in turn

this had left Gem in her working clothes.

She still went on to be my Reserve Female

Champion with her calf Gem’s Kitkat taking Best

Calf 2019.

This then left me with a super Male Champion

who had great legs and feet, who moved despite

his weight as if he was on a track against a

lovely in calf heifer, who you could say was at ’12

o’clock’ as far as fitness was concerned, so on

this occasion, my Champion was Drumsleed Hivy,

bred, owned and shown by the Smith family, he

was a credit to all their hard work.

My Female/Overall Reserve went to Sterling

FCUK Impuls from the Simmers family with my

hope being that she comes out next year with a

calf at foot and if she looks like she did here there

will be many more red rosettes on the way.

Thank you again to everybody for putting up

with me and I look forward to competing against

you all next year at the 2020 show in Carlisle.

JUDGE:

John W May

Firstly, I would like to thank the

Pembrokeshire Agricultural Society

for asking me to judge. It was a great

honour to be invited to judge the Welsh

National Show of Simmentals.

Senior Bull class – Shiloh Farm Forever

Royal, stood alone, shown in his working

clothes but moving freely around the ring.

The January Bull class was won by Cwarre

Jester 18, a well fleshed bull that moved

well. He excelled through the rib and loin

and will be an asset to any herd. He went

on to stand Male Champion. The April

Class had 2 bulls forward. I placed Alreb

Jonesy over Hirwaun Jimmy Mac. Jonesey

stood a slightly smaller bull to Jimmy Mac

but Jonesey was better through the rear

quarter being longer from hip to pin, fuller

and deeper through the second thigh, he

also moved better. The second placed bull

Hirwaun Jimmy Mac will make a big long

bull and needs time to fill into his frame.

Difficult to judge these two as two totally

different bulls but on the day Alreb Jonesey

was the more complete bull

he went on to be Reserve

Male Champion. The Bull

Calf Class – Gwili Jack 18

stood alone but a worthy

winner. Well fleshed with

plenty of potential for the

future.

Senior Cow was won by

Kilbride Farm Eunice 153rd.

A big well fleshed cow who

edged Welston King Clara

into second place. The 2yr

old Heifer class had two

forward with very little to

separate them. The nod

went to Crugmelyn Icing

Sugar over Crugmelyn

Indigo. Just 2yr old this

darker coloured heifer had

exceptional ring presence.

She was well balanced,

covering a lot of ground

when standing. Good in the

shoulder. A well sprung rib

and good through the loin.

Icing Sugar going on to be

Female Champion, one for

the future. The Heifer Class

born after September 17

was won by Cwarre Rosie’s

Ilex a good well-balanced

heifer who exhibited a lovely

breed type and should

mature well. The Yearling

class was won by Cwarre

Dora’s Jigsaw a stylish heifer

who caught the eye with

her presence. A strong

heifer who went on to stand

Reserve Female Champion.

The April class was won by

Crugmelyn Jelly Baby and

the Calf class was won by

Cwarre Rosie’s Jasmin.

Sadly, the entry lacked

significant numbers, but the

animals forward were all

excellent examples of the

breed. The Male Champion

Cwarre Jester 18 a stylish

well-muscled bull stood

over the Female Champion

Crugmelyn Icing Sugar to

take the Championship.

I would like to thank all

exhibitors for bringing their

animals forward. Well done

everyone.

JUDGE:

MICHAEL BARLOW

A

big thank you to the Northern

Ireland Simmental Club for inviting

me to judge their National Show,

the weather came with me! To start with

we had a cow doing what they do best

with a superb calf at foot. A young cow

with plenty of character that moved well,

and not overdone, Ranfurly Weikel 18th

H2 later became Female Champion and

Reserve Overall.

Moving onto the Senior Heifer class,

maybe not the strongest of classes but

two super heifers both turned out very

professionally with Newbiemains Intrepid

exhibited by Jonathan Henderson taking

the first prize.

The Intermediate Heifer class presented

four outstanding heifers, with first place

going to Ranfurly Weikel 23rd. I couldn’t

help but feel while I was judging that

she was very similar in type to the cow

with the calf at foot in the first class. She

actually turned out to be her full sister and

later became Reserve Female Champion.

The Junior Heifer class had six

completely different type of heifers. I

had to go with Cleenagh Jessica on the

day as she really was at 12 O’Clock for a

junior heifer. I did also like

the second placed heifer

Slievenagh Jewel who must

have been giving quite a bit of

age away and without a doubt

her day will come. The next

Junior Heifer class was well

represented with Coolcran

Lady Jasmine being the clear

winner.

Overall I thought the

females were of the highest

quality and would not look out

of place in any show in the UK.

The first Junior Bull

class was won by Ranfurly

Jameson. He had presence,

style, locomotion and was

exceptionally well turned. He

later became Breed Champion

and went on to Champion

of Champions at the show.

It was a strong class with

exceptionally well turned out

young bulls.

The next Junior Bull class

was a lot easier to judge with

only three bulls forward, and

three completely different

types altogether. I went with

Derrycallaghan Jackpot, he

was a bull with natural style

and width.

The last Junior Bull was

the big growth bull Coolcran

Jameson, Again a strong class,

Coolcran Jameson was a big

bull for his age who moved

well with plenty of width and

style.

The best bull calf went to

Breaghey Kingdom. This was

a super calf and later went

on to achieve Reserve Male

Champion. The only way I

could justify this was lining

up the first prize Junior bulls.

To judge a calf against young

bulls I always feel you need

to value the animal as if you

were buying them.

The Northern Ireland

Club can be immensely

proud of the standard and

quality of cattle forward and

I thoroughly enjoyed my day.

Good luck to all members and

exhibitors with your future

shows.

SALE PRECHECKS

Please be aware of the following before entering Simmental Cattle to any of our Society sales:

• Testicles

Bull’s testicles will be measured and inspected by the veterinary surgeon. They must be a

minimum size of 36 cm in circumference (14 Months), and 38 cm (over 18 months), measured

at the widest point of the scrotum. The vet retains the right at his discretion to reject any

bulls with uneven or soft testicles. Progeny from bulls with small/uneven/soft testicles

which fail inspections will not be accepted into the BSCS herd book 10 months after the sale

inspection date. Bulls which may have suffered injury will be considered on a case-by-case

basis.

• Warts

Animals with active warts must be treated by the member’s veterinary surgeon and a vet’s

certificate should be available for inspection at the Sale

• Teeth

Teeth must make proper contact with the dental pad of the upper jaw but due allowance

will be made for the age and dental development of the animal. Any animal with severely

undershot or severely overshot jaws will be rejected and progeny from such animals will not

be accepted into the BSCS herd book 10 months after the sale inspection date. Where the

veterinary surgeon declares that an animal is marginally overshot or undershot that animal

may still be offered through the sale but will be excluded from the show. The Auctioneer will

announce that at the point of inspection of animal was found to be marginally overshot or

undershot

• General Health

Animals with active infections, a contagious disease, or a disorder or condition, may be

rejected by the veterinary surgeon. Minor injuries may be treated by a veterinary surgeon in

the market but this must be announced at the time of sale. The decisions of the veterinary

surgeon appointed by the Society are final and binding. Any animal which is considered by

the vet to be not in a healthy and proper condition to be presented as representing a good

specimen of the breed at an official collective sale, will be rejected.

• Feet

Please ensure that feet and legs are sound and locomotion is satisfactory.

• Check that the animals are of good conformation/condition and meet the required minimum

weight for age as per the chart below:-
