Now I have to tell the truth - we were the only two cattle in the "Other Native Breed" classes, but you can only compete against the others there on the day.

Not only that, but they won't (well, they shouldn't) give Firsts to beasts which aren't correct examples of the breed, even if there aren't any others in the class.
