The 2017 Toowoomba Royal Show belonged to the Priebbenow family, in particular Nicole, who along with offsider Jack, prepared and exhibited the Silverleigh team of six with tremendous success both in the breed and inter-breed judging rings. Nicole’s father Daryl has always said that production is Silverleigh’s game, and while they are also very good at that, he can probably now say that showing is definitely in their repertoire. Almost 60 animals paraded before Judge, Raymond Parker, Glencliffe, Victoria.
