Her ability to balance strength and softness is something we value immensely within our breeding program.

Winnie’s quality has also been recognised in the show ring, first claiming the title of Junior Speckle Park Champion at the Brisbane Ekka in 2022. Demonstrating longevity, productivity, and consistency, she returned to the Ekka in 2025 with her third calf at foot to be awarded the prestigious Brisbane Ekka Speckle Park Feature Supreme Speckle Park Exhibit.
