Exhibitors to travel from Donegal to West Cork for Cappamore Show's cattle section

THE CATTLE section of the Cappamore Show on Saturday is set to be one of the hotly-contested yet, with a massive 62 classes scheduled across seven  breeds. 

Sean Ryan 'Luke', chairperson of the cattle section, said: “We’re very fortunate once again this year to be able to include five All-Ireland titles among those classes, which really helps draw in some of the top cattle from all over the country.”

Exhibitors will travel from the four corners of Ireland to east Limerick.

“They are coming from Donegal right down to West Cork. The reach and reputation of the show has grown steadily over the years, and Cappamore has now earned its place as one of the leading cattle shows in the country.

"It’s a reputation we’re very proud of, and one that we work hard to uphold every year,” said Sean, a son of the late and great show secretary Paddy Ryan 'Luke'.

Sean said one of the most encouraging parts of the cattle section is the loyalty of our exhibitors. 

“Every year, we welcome back competitors who have shown with us previously, but we also continue to see fresh faces year after year. That mix of experience and new energy is what gives Cappamore such a buzz on the day – and it’s great for the future of the industry too,” said Sean.

Every single class is now listed and available online at www.cappamoreshow.ie, so whether you’re planning to enter or just want to come along and watch, all the details are there.

“We’re happy to help, and we want to make it as easy as possible for exhibitors and spectators alike to be part of what’s shaping up to be a fantastic day,” concludes Sean.
