Under the scrutiny of Gippsland cattle judge, Karl Munden, the young people moved confidently around the ring with their charges they had prepared themselves.

Champion handler was Tammy Stone, 22 of Katunga, who took out her own heifer, Hawthorn Glen Gloria Tequila.

Mr Munden remarked on how Tammy was calm and collected.

“She did a good job handling the heifer who occasionally played up. She was calm and always in control.”
