The six-tooth Merino ewe from Guy Evans' Tara Park stud, Boorowa, took out the win ahead of the supreme Merino ram from the Merriman family's, Merryville stud, also at Boorowa.
The Tara Park ewe had 18.7 micron wool and a 99.8 comfort factor.
Merryville stud took out a swag of ribbons across the two-days of Merino judging - including its 26th win of the Stonehaven Cup for its group of five March shorn Merino sheep.
