It is encouraged that young judges record their own results when judging the classes. The most important part when assessing cattle is to be able to reason and compare why YOU have placed the animals in the order that you have, irrespective of what your peers may consider.

Results will be released once marking has been completed and will be announced via email and our Facebook page.

An immense thank you to all the studs and seedstock producers who allowed the media use of their cattle for the competition and for Emily H Photography for organising the footage.

Good luck to all competitors!
