With 72 dairy cattle on offer at Gisburn Pedigree Christmas Show on Thursday, newly calved heifers had to be judged in
four groups before Andrew Holgate of the Aliann herd, Rathmell, Settle, North Yorks., choose John & Gillian Dewhurst, Whittingham, Preston, Lancs., Matson sired heifer as the supreme champion.
Just 14 days calved, giving 30 litres and out of a VG85 dam, she sold to F Talbot & Co, Ribchester, Preston, Lancashire for £2600. Next in the bidding stakes wa s regular vendor Colin Singleton, Goosnargh, Preston with an Askew Reece
heifer, 14 days calving and giving 30 litres she sold at £2420 to an undisclosed buyer. Another heifer from the same vendor, this time ten days calved again giving 30 litres sold to producer retailer-Tom Pickup, Entwistle, Bolton, Lancs.,
for £2200. James Burrow, Barton, Preston, Lancs.,achieved £2400 for a very smart Icefyre heifer from the famous Vaakje family,
giving 32 litres which was claimed by local Holstein Friesian breeder Martin Bristol, Newton in Bowland, Clitheroe, Lancs. The reserve championship award was claimed by R & E Butterfield, Bentham, Lancaster with a Huddlesford bred heifer,
giving 28 litres sold for £2200 to JJ Crosier, Gisburn, Clitheroe, Lancs. Meanwhile, despite being in the commercial section Fred Parkinson, Chaigley, Clitheroe was in the money too, with his heifer which sold for £2220 to NW & JM
Coulthurst & Son, Goosnargh, Preston, Lancs. M & WM Berry, Horton in Craven, Skipton, North Yorks., achieved £2180 for a heifer, giving 33 litres at 17 days calved. Numerous other heifers achieved £2150 from GD Donkin, Copster Green,
Blackburn, Lancs., JD Taylor & Son, Broughton, Skipton, North Yorks., & PT & MT Critchley Ltd, Wrea Green, Preston with their Denmire Milton heifer bred from 2 generations of VG. Fred Spurgeon, auctioneer commenting on the day said
“Trade was firm for strong well bred cattle. However-more cautious for the smaller type heifers.” In calf cattle peaked at GD Donkin’s Baxter heifer due in January to sexed semen. The show was kindly sponsored by Cogent Breeding.
