Junior 2-Yr Olds
In the first class with Junior 2-Yr Olds Barendonk Holsteins immediately gained a double stroke. Barendonk Lol 7052 P, a Jester daughter of Caudumer Lol 306 PP Red EX-91 (Magna x Caudumer Lol 292-Red P VG-87), won this class with herd-mate and Jotan daughter Barendonk Wilma 375 following her in second. The dam to Wilma 375, Barendonk Wilma 300 EX-90 (Mr Savage), is no stranger in the showring as well. She is the Junior 2-Yr Old Champion from the NRM 2014.
Lol 7052 P was named Junior 2-Yr Old Champion and she was followed by Grashoek Silke 198 (Manhattan) owned by Melkveebedrijf Grashoek, who won the second class. Wilma 375, who is just fresh for a month, was named honourable mention.

In the Intermediate class all eyes were focused on Barendonk Paulina 188 Red, the Reserve Junior 2-Yr Old Champion from the HHH-Show 2016 and NRM 2017. This Fraiko daughter won the second class with intermediate cows. Following her in second place was Barendonk Brasilera 15, an Absolute-Red daughter of Barendonk Brasilera 12 EX-93.
