Champion of Champions Bull

It’s been a long time between drinks for the Bassingthwaighte family and the Santa breed, but they placed top of the bulls during the 2017 Champion of Champions competition at the Royal Queensland Show. The impressive Santa Gertrudis sire, Yarrawonga Fixer, took the eye of judge Brett Nobbs who placed the bull in first over a show ring full of top sires. It’s been at least 20 years since a Santa won the Champion of Champions bulls with the Bassingthwaighte family also exhibiting that champion bull.
