The breed classes at this year’s Three Counties Show were judged by Steven Ley of the renowned Tordown Flock, who had an excellent entry of sheep to assess throughout the day. Exhibitors presented a strong line-up of stock, making for highly competitive classes and an impressive championship.
The championships brought together the best exhibits of the day. Master Dexter Martin’s outstanding Shearling Ram (LWS/25/01538) was selected as Male Champion, with Mrs Abbie Digweed’s aged ram (TMY/24/00106) awarded Reserve Male Champion.
The Female Championship was awarded to Mr Dave Roberts’ exceptional aged ewe (BOY/25/01700), while Mrs Abbie Digweed’s stylish Shearling Ewe (RWM/25/03288) stood Reserve Female Champion.
In the final championship line-up, judge Steven Ley selected Mr Dave Roberts’ aged ewe (BOY/25/01700) as the Overall Champion of the show.
The Reserve Overall Championship went to Mrs Abbie Digweed’s Shearling Ewe (RWM/25/03288), rounding off a highly successful day for all involved.
Congratulations to all exhibitors on the quality of stock presented and their achievements throughout the show. A sincere thank you is also extended to judge Steven Ley for his time, expertise, and thoughtful assessment of the classes.
