Double victory graced Mallow-based Texel breeder Pat O’Keefe this weekend whose Annakisha flock clinched not only the Cork Summer Show Overall Supreme Sheep Champion, but also female champion and reserve overall champion at the Texel Championships in Donegal on Saturday.

There was stiff competition from the other breeds in the sheep rings at Cork Summer Show, with deliberations between the three judges continuing at length.
