It was a case of deja vu for Clifton breeders Jamie Hollis and Mikayla Passmore, taking out grand champion female with their cow Kalara Binara Queen Revona.
Queen Revona's mother won the competition three years in a row and was a runner-up in the interbreed challenge, while numerous sisters have also won junior and senior champion ribbons at previous Ekkas.
Grand Champion bull went to Braelyn Washington S056, owned by Neville and Denise Shannon of Braelyn Herefords, based at Toowoomba and Texas.
The Hereford competition was well contested with 60 exhibits across the classes, represented by a number of studs from Queensland, New South Wales, and one from Victoria.
