Willow Drive principal Barry Shalders, Derrinallum, won supreme South Suffolk with a ram from the under 1.5 year class.
It was the third win for the 12-month-old ram in his first year of showing, also being sashed champion ram at the Australian Sheep & Wool Show, Bendigo, and reserve champion to a fellow Willow Drive ram at Hamilton Sheepvention.
Mr Shalders brought a team of 12 South Suffolks to the show, also taking home reserve champion ewe.
Billabong High School, Culcairn, NSW, was awarded champion ewe with a South Suffolk from the under 1.5 years class.
Judge Russell Duncombe, Freshwater Creek, said the ewe was "very alert, with good stretch in the neck which ram down into the shoulder blades and along the back".
