Supreme Dairy champion Newbirks Jazz with Rob and Elaine Butterfield.
HIGH Bentham dairy farmers Rob and Elaine Butterfield are celebrating after a double triumph at the Great Yorkshire Show in Harrogate.
Their Holstein cow Newbirks Jazz took the title of Supreme Dairy Champion in the show's cattle rings, while the same animal joined their Ingelview Goldensun to take the dairy title in the Blythewood Pairs class -for the second year running, as Newbirks Jazz was part of last year's winning pair.
The success of the Butterfields, of Linghaw Farm, came as thousands of visitors flocked to the showground for the event's second day, which also featured a visit by Michael Gove, Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.
