Royal Cornwall Show 2011
The 2011 RCS proved to be very competitive with 38 Guernseys from 11 exhibitors creating some demanding classes for Robin Jamouneau from Guernsey Island to decide.
His first class of the day found 14 calves in the ring, and the classification here would be better if amended to allow for calves of up to 9 months, rather than 12 months and the subsequent maiden heifer class altered to allow for 9-18 month maiden heifers. There was quite a range within the calves and the handlers and I was delighted to see “Grandpa” Grose back in the showring in a supervisory role, but once the calf was in the ring his services were soon dispensed with.
