Well done to the Fircovert herd of Paul Gunther, Fir Covert Farm, Felthorpe, Norwich who enjoyed a terrific couple of days at the South of England Show. The herd picked up the Simmental Championship with the January 2020 born Fircovert Ladybird who is by Denizes Hamish 16 and out of Fircovert Fantasy, a Fircovert Chester daughter. Thereafter Simmentals won the Interbreed progeny group and Fircovert Ladybird & Fircovert Lizbet were part of the Reserve Championship Interbreed Team of Four. Great to see the Simmental breed having a terrific profile at these major summer shows and racking up more than a few Interbreed Championships & Reserves!
