The Derby Show , 1906. 
Mr. Gordon’s Fascinator , a bull of grand quality, securing an 
easy win.' The Judges found some difficulty in placing the 
next three animals ; they were so evenly balanced as to 
points. Mr. George Harrison was awarded the second prize 
for Charming Victor 2nd, and also the third prize for Royal 
Ensign. 
Class 89 (Bulls, calved in 1905). — First (No. 732), “ A most 
wonderful bull for his age, being deep and having little fault 
to be found with him ; in fact for his age one of the best 
we have seen for many years.” Second (654), “ Beautiful 
quality and a true type of Shorthorn.” Third (696), “Very 
deep, heavy fleshed bull, might be a little better in head 
and horn, but well worthy of his position.” 
Class 90 (Cows, in-milk, calved previously to 1902). — Here 
were some of the best cows seen together for a long time. 
First (735), Champion heifer of 1903, retains most of her 
good points, including good dairy properties, with beautiful 
quality. This fine cow, Sylph , exhibited by His Majesty The 
King, is a daughter of the famous bull, u Royal Duke.” Second 
(749), is of “beautiful quality, very level good flesh, and a real 
good animal.” Third (750), was the Champion of 1904, but 
being now over eight years old, age is making its mark, but 
she still retains the beautiful quality she always had. 
Class 91 (Heifers, calved in 1903). — First (761), is a very 
good heifer, deep in body, with level back, and a very easy 
winner. Second (764), a well-grown heifer, but not so evenly 
balanced as the first : ’“ this and all the winners in the class 
show good dairy properties, which we are pleased to see 
breeders are paying attention to.” Third (752), is of beautiful 
quality, but very small, which rather puts her a little lower 
in the list than she would have been. 
Class 92 (Heifers, calved in 1904).— First (783), is a red 
and white heifer, good all round, very level, deep in body, 
and of nice character, very similar to the winner in the 
previous class ; she is, in fact, from the same cow. Second 
(784), a roan, full of quality. Third (765), a “wonderful 
grown heifer, with nice character and quality, but not so 
level as those placed before her.” 
Class 93 (Heifers, calved 1905). — Here were some beautiful 
youngsters, showing that breeders still have an eye to quality. 
First (859), “a beautiful heifer well grown down, level, and a 
grand coat of hair ; in fact, it was hard to find a fault with 
her : her beautiful liind-quarters gained her the Champion- 
ship.” Second (800), another grand animal, very similar to 
the first, but not so deep in body nor so nice in head, but 
still an easy second. Third (848), a roan, full of quality, 
and will improve with age.
