This was Windyridge Tequila Diamond by Towevue Prime Tequila out of Shellen Connection Diamond from Emma and Philip Manning Shrewsbury. The seventh calver which is giving 38kg daily was also breed champion at the show in 2018 and breed champion at Dairy Day the same year and had not been shown since.
Mr Logan said: "My champion is an absolutely outstanding example of the Jersey breed. She has a tremendous dairy frame and moves so well and has a fantastic udder which would be a credit to a fourth calver, never mind a seventh calver. She is what we should all be aspiring to produce."
In reserve was the Holstein champion, Eedy Crushabull Acclaim, a second calver from Brian and Michael Yates, Castle Douglas. The daughter of Oh-River-Syc out of Eedy Beemer Acclaim calved in January and is currently giving 50kg daily.
