Under glorious sunshine and high temperatures . The hereford classes were boosted in numbers with the new addition of the Bull of The Future competition sponsored by ABP with many Breeders double entering their bulls and bringing an extra Heifer for company .

The Hereford judging started off with Hereford bull born after 1/7/24 to 31/12/24 under the watchful eye of Mr James Thompson from the Ballyraggan herd In Rathvilly Co Carlow there was 18 bulls catalogued so a tough task in hand so much so they had to make the show ring bigger.
