Solway View success at BBBC Calf Show 09

We were delighted to win two of the classes at the Border British Blue Club Calf Show with a heifer and a bull.

Solway View Dynamite ET is our Bringlee Sandy/Baron son born April 08. This was the first year that Connor has taken part and he led Dynamite to victory in his class.

Winning the heifer class was Solway View Drambuie ET - a flashy show heifer out of Broomfield Vivien and by Empire D'Ochian. Drambuie went on to take Reserve Female Champion honours.

Later on he went on to take Championship honours, fighting off stiff competition.
