To follow on from Show Results of Doune and Dunblane Page 114 - SCOTTISH NATIONAL SIMMENTAL SHOW 2009

The Scottish Club held its second Scottish National Simmental Show at Doune & Dunblane Show on 4th July. On the Friday evening we held a Barbeque in the Cattle lines and despite the wet evening a good time was had by all. Thank you Dorothy for all the catering and to Jim & Hilary for the Barbeque.

Early the next morning, Jim Strathern had his barbeque in action again supplying everyone with bacon rolls before the judging. An excellent Show of over 80 Cattle were forward from 20 Exhibitors from Caithness to the Borders, for our Judge Peter Goldsbrough (Coppermill) to place. It was also encouraging to see some new Members Showing for the first time.

All classes were well supported and the eventual overall Champion was Corskie Valiant , the Highland Show champion from Jimmy & Iain Green.

Reserve Champion was the female champion Hazelden Carina from Neil McGeoch.
