2007 Melbourne Royal Show
At this years Melbourne Royal Show there were some 500 entries of an extremely high standard. This is the second largest and one of the most competitive shows in the country. The Timbertop show team consisted of 16 animals, 11 juniors and 5 older animals. We came away from the show happy with our results but look forward to an even better performance at the National Show and Sale in October.
We feel our most rewarding result was the sire's progeny where we got a second, all with Timbertop animals, and this being Celtic Triumph's first ever progeny class.

Timbertop MOET Program
We have undertaken a comprehensive Multiple Ovulation Embryo Transfer (MOET) program in 2007 with Dr Jane Vaughan from Cria Genesis. We have just finished our fourth program for the year with one more to go. Our donors have been selected from our premium girls at Timbertop and have been mated to Patagonia Celtic Triumph and Timbertop Obi-Wan Kenobi. It has been a massive learning curve and we have had pleasing results with the programs. Our first ET babies are due to arrive in January 2008.
