Laura Poppe - Events Manager, ANM Group Ltd Posted 25th January 2008 ROYAL NORTHERN SPRING SHOW SELL-OUT Trade exhibitors looking to secure stand space at this year's Royal Northern Spring Show will have to be quick off the mark to avoid disappointment. Trade stand applications for the show at Thainstone Centre on Wednesday, February 27, close in the next few days and Scott Raeburn, secretary of the Royal Northern Agricultural Society, warned last night that exhibitors who fail to book on time may have to be turned away. "We simply don't have enough space to accommodate all the trade stands and this inevitably means that some potential exhibitors will be disappointed," said Mr Raeburn. "I would urge all exhibitors who have not yet booked trade space to contact me right away and we will do our best to accommodate them." This year's show is expected to attract a bumper entry of livestock following the decision of the organisers to increase prize money by 10% and keep entry fees at the same level. "The directors have decided to increase the prize money in the livestock sections to reward exhibitors and encourage an increased entry," said Mr Raeburn. The show cattle will be judged by James Forsyth, Mid Bishopton, Whithorn, Newton Stewart, with prime hoggs coming under the scrutiny of Moray farmer and meat wholesaler, Colin Taylor, managing director of Rhinds of Elgin. Retired Angus farmer, Scott Watson, Carnoustie, a former exhibitor of the supreme champion at the Royal Smithfield Show, will judge the carcase cattle on the hoof and retired Torphins butcher, George Sinclair, will be the judge on the hook. Entries for the large horse and pony section are also flooding in and an increased entry is expected in the cereals, roots, silage and hay classes which are increasing in popularity. The overall horse and pony championship will be judged by Mrs Polly Lochore, Burgie House, Forres. The cost of entry to the show is unchanged from last year. |
