A tremendous show of Wensleydales at the first show of the season, it was so lovely to catch up with old and new friends. Congratulations to all exhibitors for a great representation for the breed. Well done to Nicky & Pete Hodkinson who took the Breed Championship with their shearling ewe and also won the reserve Interbreed Wool on the Hoof. Reserve was Julie & Anna Pennells Male winner, the shearling ram.
