‘Fantasia’ result for Glenpark flock

Balmoral Ch KSP.FO45_Moment: The Beltex Virtual Balmoral Show Supreme Champion, Glenpark Fantasia ET, a shearling ewe from Omagh-based Kenny Preston’s Glenpark Flock.

Taking the championship was a shearling ewe from Kenny Preston in the shape of Glenpark Fantasia ET, which is sired by Faughhill Detroit and out of Munreary Diamond, a Skiddaw View Trapper daughter.

Judge, Andrew Baillie, of the Callacrag Flock, commented: “The champion looks to have all the qualities I like! She’s well-muscled with great length and width and also good style and character.”

In reserve was a ram lamb named Ardstewart Gandalf ET from Wade and Alison McCrabbe’s Ardstewart Flock. His pedigree features Swffryd Express on to Ardstewart Devotee, a Kingledores Crusader daughter. Andrew commented: “The reserve is showing great promise at a young age with real flash, but also good length and shape.”

Balmoral res. AST.GO48_Moment: Reserve Champion was a ram lamb named Ardstewart Gandalf ET from Donegal-based Wade and Alison McCrabbe’s Ardstewart Flock.
