N102 - Never Say Die - gave the flock a brilliant May Fair on 4/5 May 2010 by winning the Signet class on the show day and finishing runner up in a strong single poll lamb class.

On sale day, this Sherborne Lewisham son set an early high price of 2,200 gns, only to be surpassed late in the day the single poll winner achieving 2,800 gns.

Best Large Flock Award

Richard & Robert Hole’s Sherborne Flock of Poll Dorsets were recently awarded Best Large Flock in the National Dorset Horn and Poll Dorset Sheep Breeders Flock Competition.

The event, judged in July by Mr & Mrs William Carson from Northern Ireland, is split into small, medium and large categories depending on ewe numbers.

The flock’s group of 100 ewe lambs also won the overall ewe lamb section, beating entrants from Derbyshire, Sheffield, Devon and Northern Ireland.

The competition, held annually by the Breed, is growing in popularity every year and it allows judges to see the versatility of the Dorset breed in many different farming environments across the UK.
