The Twenty Third Annual Show and sale on behalf of the Bluefaced Leicester Sheep Breeders took place at Welshpool Livestock Sales on Thursday 30th September 2010.

Judge on the day was A M Little of Carlisle, who placed a smart tup lamb from E Owen, Cernyw as her champion, and saw her judgement backed as it made the highest price. By the Hazelwood X18 E+ and out of a ewe by the homebred Y1 Cernyw, which has been producing the goods for the flock recently, not least at the Welsh Progeny show, he was knocked down for 1150 gns to A Jones, Fodol, Anglesey.

With the best trade seen in the Bluefaced Leicester Ram Ring for a number of years, all of the yearling rams presented for sale were sold. With a strong contingent of local and North Wales buyers in attendance trade was brisk and returned an average of £479.66. Topping the trade in the shearling section was a shearling from S A Harding, Shrewbridge. He is by W1 Old Parks, and out of a ewe by W3 Plas y Ward E+, and sold for 1000 gns to D I Roberts, Stingwern, Welshpool.
