Royal Show 2008

Sadly, Bluetongue restrictions meant that only one Exmoor Horn member had been able to comply with the vaccination and testing qualifications for this show.  Mr Stuart Grainger did well with his Exmoor Horns in the Any Other Breed class, obtaining a 2nd and 6th place with his Old Rams, and a 4th with his Shearling Ewe.

 

Royal Welsh Show 2008

21st – 24th July 2008                                     Judge: Mr John Tarr

 

Due to Bluetongue restrictions many of the usual Exmoor Horn exhibitors were not able to travel to Wales .  We were lucky that Flock No 98 had anticipated this and made sure that the Exmoor Horns still had an individual presence at the show.
