The Athlone Agri show, which took place in Bealin on Sunday, played host to a qualifying round for the 2018 Aldi angus All Ireland bull calf championship.
Sponsored by Aldi, in conjunction with ABP Ireland and the Irish angus cattle society, this year’s competition will see Ireland’s very best angus bulls battle it out for a prize fund of €23,500, one of the largest prize funds for an agricultural show in Europe.
Four bulls progressed from the Athlone qualifier event and will now compete at the grand finals, which will take place at the Iverk show in Co. Kilkenny on August 25, 2018.
