In 2008’s County Show, it was Ivy Cromarty’s homebred Clydesdale that went the distance and claimed victory. The mare, named Hrossland Just Meg, was an 11-year-old, sired by West Clumley Daniel and out of Hrossland Just Mandy. Ivy Cromarty was from of Heathervale in Burray.

Clydesdale judge that year was Ian Flett, of Millhouse, Lyde Road, Harray. He said of his chosen champion: “She is a tremendous mare; very well presented. Really, the hair on her is to be admired anywhere in the country. She is a horse that could stand at any show in Scotland.”
