A big congratulations to Ant Hart, Carloggas Farm, Treverybyn, St Austell, Cornwall who with their January 2022 born bull calf Treverbyn Norman, won the Overall All-Breeds Supreme title at the Cornwall Pedigree Calf Show, held yesterday 22nd October at the Royal Cornwall Showground.
A heterozygous polled calf, Treverbyn Norman is by Coose Norman P, and is out of Treverybyn Keira, a Skylark Geronimo daughter. Having come through the Simmental classes and lifted the Championship from Simmental judge Jonny Ward, Treverbyn Norman then went head to head with the other breed champions to lift the Overall title and this time in front of the judge Mrs Ria Rice, daughter of Philip Warren the noted Launceston based butcher. In what was the tenth staging of the Cornwall Pedigree Beef Calf Show, this is the first time the Overall Supreme Championship has been won by a British Simmental.
Well supported by Simmental breeders, the classes featured entries from the Treverbyn, Bosahan, Wellatree, Angwella, Tregnether, and Loxton herds respectively, and with the catalogue featuring 90 entries in all across the breeds. A great win for the Harts and for Cornish Simmental breeders!
