Title

Beautiful beast

Description

"Proud owner of the rosettes is 'Beau-desert Hypericum,' a 20-month old bull which was judged be supreme champion at the recent Hereford Herd Book Society's show and sale at Hereford in the English midlands. The animal is owned and was bred by Mrs. Anne Hardy of Hockley Health, Warwickshire, the sire being 'Beaudesert Freedom!' This year's show and sale saw little change from last year's exceptional figures. Some 195 animals were sold for a total of 110,397 (Pounds, Sterling), to average 569.06 (Pounds, Sterling) for each beast, only fractionally less than last year's record average and proving that there is still a keen demand for high quality animals."
