Orrisdale Farm beast scoops top prize at Southern Agricultural Show
The Kermode family from Orrisdale Farm have scooped the top prize at this year's Southern Agricultural Show.
Judge Henry Watterson favoured the Kermode's five-year-old home-bred Limousin bull for the accolade of Supreme Champion, ahead the Creer family's Texel ram, which took home the First Reserve award.
Thomas Kermode expressed his delight with the win to Manx Radio's Simon Clarke:
Second Reserve went to Vikki Sloan-Masson and Neil Masson's Holstein cow, with Clare Christian's home-bred mare awarded Third Reserve.
