David Harrison hosted a SheepMaster Open Day at his Janaree property near Cobar last Tuesday with Apollo 73 (pictured above with David at centre and co-owners Gary Doyle and Mike O’Hare) being the main attraction. Apollo was purchased in November last year for a record price of $85,000 and is regarded as the best shedding sheep in NSW. Attendees at the Janaree Open Day were able to take part in an informal Q&A session with SheepMaster breed founder, Neil Garnett and stud classer Andrew Hodson.
