Murphy’s cow is best in ‘Baileys’

EUGENE MURPHY and his son Sean from Waterfall in Co Cork have won the 2011 Baileys Cow award.

Their six-year-old Dale Valley OT1 J Lulu was judged best of a high-class entry of 24 at the Virginia Agricultural Show in Co Cavan last Saturday.

It is the first time the Murphy family has won this prestigious competition judged on the basis of conformation and proven excellence in milk production.
