Although the number of cattle on display at the Perth Royal was well down the quality of the Charolais exhibition was outstanding. Talking through the sheds some teams were absent with biosecurity concerns about exhibiting. Assessing the Charolais classes at the show was Mr Brendan Scheiwe from Brendale Charolais at Marburg, Queensland. Venturon Livestock was the most successful Charolais exhibitor and started their success in the junior bull section. Venturon Start The Party (P) won the 14 to 18 months class before being elevated to Junior Champion bull. Sired by Venturon Hamish (P), a trait leader for 600 day weight this balanced young sire took judge Brendan Scheiwe’s eye. He commented the junior bull was structurally correct with plenty of meat on the topline, clean fronted and had a tremendous sires outlook.
Venturon Her Majesty S188 (P)(R/F), Junior Champion Female exhibited by Venturon Livestock, Boyup Brook WA with Bianca Ransome & Bronwin McNair.
This bull weighed 796kg at 16 months. Start the Party had previously been shown at Sydney Royal this year where he won his class. Mr Scheiwe continued with this bull all through judging making him the grand champion Charolais sire before awarding him Supreme Charolais Exhibit. Venturon had further success with this bull when he won Interbreed Junior Champion Bull, a title his maternal grandsire Venturon Keystone (P) also won in 2015. Reserve Junior champion bull was the Bell families, Bardoo Manhattan S157E (AI)(ET)(P). A fully imported embryo from the successful New Zealand Silverstream herd, this bull caught the judges’ eye for his length and growth. This calf carries a double cross of Silverstream Evolution (P) who needs no introduction in the Charolais world. The dam of this bull comes from the Dasher line that has been so consistent. Venturon Shake N Bake S182 (AI)(P) placed second in this class. Venturon won the remaining junior bull class with Venturon Sandstorm S33 (AI)(P) (R/F) a son of HRJ Fan Favourite 804F. Senior champion bull was Copplestone Primetime P16E exhibited by Peter and Judy Milton, Copplestone Charolais. A four year sire this bull would have punched the scales down if he could fit in the weigh box. Prime time was sired by Paringa Laredo L305 (P), a son of VPI Free Lunch 708T (P).
