A particular feature in the sale, was the presentation of the Pete Seabury trophy for the best pen of lambs in the yard. This perpetual trophy, now in its third year, is presented annually, in memory of the late Mr. Seabury, who was a regular buyer of store lambs for many years at the Three Horse Shoes.

The winner this year, was Mr. Keith Bowen from Hopton Bank, whose pen of Suffolk cross Welsh Mule lambs made £44.80p a piece. They were purchased by a Bridgnorth buyer.
