Three Counties Show Friday 14th June – Judge Chris Pennie, Sarkley Limousins

Black Isle Show Thursday 1st August – Judge Craig Ridley, Haltcliffe Limousins

Two new Limousin “Grand Prix” styled events are to be held this summer with one taking place in England and the other in Scotland. Each Grand Prix event will be supported with a £1,000 prize fund by the British Limousin Cattle Society and will incorporate the existing Limousin classes at the Three Counties Show and the Black Isle Show respectively.

Both the Three Counties and Black Isle shows are highly-regarded in their own right so it is hoped the Limousin Grand Prix will showcase the attributes of the Limousin breed as well as boosting its profile and entries in their respective areas. Noted breeders Chris Pennie and Craig Ridley will undertake judging duties at the respective shows.

The Three Counties schedule and entry form are now available on www.threecounties.co.uk and you are able to enter online at https://www.threecountiesonline.co.uk/frmLiveStock.aspx. PLEASE NOTE ENTRIES CLOSE 9TH APRIL 2013

For the Black Isle Show, the schedule and entry form will become  available on www.blackisleshow.info from mid-May and entries close 30th June 2013.

With extensive pre and post event reporting anticipated, Members are encouraged to enter the Limousin Grand Prix and compete for the honours and prizemoney on offer!
