August 19th, 2023That’s a lot of bull!

Trentham’s John and Sue Harvey, on the cusp of their retirement, are delighted with the recent news that a son of their bull Torr Down Marvel 3, AI Z Providence Dr Octopus (pictured above) has won Supreme Exhibit and South Devon Breed Champion at the UK National Show.
Dr Octopus, named after a Marvel cartoon character, is owned by the Tucker family of West Prawle Farm, East Portlemouth, South Devon. Sue said she and John wanted to take the opportunity to thank past and recent clients for their faith in the Torr Down bloodlines and wish them all the very best with their future breeding “while enjoying the many wonderful attributes of the South Devon, and meeting and making new friends along the way, as we have done”.

“With gratitude to our lovely cattle we will miss you, and bless you for a memorable lifetime. It has been an interesting and wonderful ride.”
