DRUMLEGAGH OCEANA TRIUMPHANT

Drumlegagh Oceana – Overall Champion Balmoral 2021

Mr Neil Austin of Gatehouse of Fleet, Kirkcudbrightshire had near perfect show weather in which to judge the Salers classes at Balmoral Show 2021.  The show that is normally a major calendar event in May each year had been postponed until September due to COVID-19 and despite the spectator numbers at the gate being capped, Salers cattle numbers were not hampered and the quality of cattle in each and every class was extremely strong. Neil’s pick of the day was Drumlegagh Oceana, an April 2019 born heifer that comes from a family line of Champions. Her dam and grand dam had both previously being crowned Champion at Balmoral. Bred by J & E A Elliott and ably brought out by stock person Kirsten Elliott, Oceana was sired by Drumlegagh Hamish and out of Drumlegagh Galaxy. Oceana lifted the Overall Champion title and the Highways Hotel Cup as well as the Wallets Marts Shield for the Best Homebred Animal.

J & E A Elliot also secured the Reserve Overall Championship title with Drumlegagh Poppy, a May 2020 Drumlegagh Hamish sired heifer out of Drumlegagh Larissa who had also been selected as the Balmoral 2021 Junior Champion

Drumlegagh Poppy – Reserve Overall Champion & Junior Champion

Standing reserve to Poppy in the Junior Championship line up was Seamus Connell’s Male Champion Ballykeel Prince, a February 2020 born Imperial sired bull out of Ballykeel Mademoiselle.

The Salers Cattle Society Cup for the Best Pair and the Best Turned Out trophy went to B & P O’Kane of Lower Bolie Salers with Lower Bolie Ophra and Lower Bolie Princess.

The coveted Stockmans Shield was awarded to Hannah Burns assisting the Lisnamaul herd for her hard work and dedication throughout the whole show.
