Winter Fair but Tirion Griffiths achieved his best result
when he landed the Butchers’ Championship with a
duo of lambs that went on to stand Reserve Supreme.
They first headed up the 91kg to 97kg class on the Monday
before they nearly went all the way during the Championships
on the Tuesday. Reserve to them in the Butchers’ section was
the 86kg to 90kg pair from Robert Garth and Sarah Priestley.
A strong entry in the pure-bred Beltex class was headed up by
the pair from the Gittoes family, with other winners including
the Hall family with three red tickets, and both D Jerman and
H Jerman.
