2011 Bendigo National Beef
Wanamara Oo-La-La
We had two heifers entered in this year's Bendigo National Beef Show -
Wanamara Oo-La-La (WAN E177) in the Heifer Class 12 - 16 months & Wanamara Royal Opal
(WAN F192) in the baby Class 9 - 12 months.
Wanamara Oo-La-La backed up her Sydney Show win by taking out the Junior Champion Heifer, followed closely behind by Wanamara Royal Opal winning the Reserve Junior Champion Heifer, at her first show. They were following in the footsteps of Wanamara Findon Royale, who in 2007 was the Junior & Grand Champion Bull & Supreme Exhibit
at the 2007 Bendigo National Beef Show. He is the Grandsire of Oo-La-La & Sire of Royal Opal.

Champagne Pretender was awarded the Senior Champion & Grand Champion Bull & Supreme Exhibit at this years Bendigo National Beef Show. He was the centre of attention with many admirers & interested commercial beef producers who had seen him at last year's show & were very keen to see how he had grown out over the past 12 months. They were very impressed to see the well proportioned 911 kg bull that he is now.

Ashley Mugnier visits Wanarama Farm
In April, the American Lowline Association sent their Junior Ambassador,
Ashley Mugnier from Muddy Creek Ranch, Wilsall, Montana, USA, to Australia.
We had the pleasure of having Ashley stay at Wanamara Farm for a few days & then Ashley & I went to the Royal Sydney Show. Ashley was given the job of caring for & exhibiting our sole entrant, 15 month old Wanamara Oo-La-La.
Ashley's expert handling skills helped Oo-La-La win her 12-16 month old Heifer Class, followed by taking out the Reserve Junior Heifer broad ribbon. Muddy Creek Ranch purchased our champion bull, Wanamara Findon Royale in 2007 to use as a major sire for their stud. He has proven to be a great success in the USA & Wanamara Oo-La-La is a Granddaughter of Findon Royale so Ashley had a special connection with our heifer.
Well done & thank you, Ashley
