David Newton wins Classic and Founders Trophy<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n
Held at the Community Centre, Wollaton,\u00a0 Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, the 2012 saw the Classic take on a new format with many fundamental changes, welcomed by the attending members. The number of Lizards benched was approximately 150 birds, but this did not deter members from enjoying a fantastic show in paying tribute to John Scott President of the LCA and Gordon Plumb renowned Lizard breeders.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Guest of Honour at the show was Angela Usher daughter to the late great Lizard Wizard Fred Snelling, Judges for the show were John Record and Huw Evans who between them chose Dave Newton’s Broken Cap Gold Hen as Best Lizard in show with Steve Martin taking Second Best again with a Broken Cap Gold Hen, this was also Best Novice a wonderful achievement from both breeders as 1st time winners, presentation of the trophies was kindly carried out by Angela making it a very proud moment I am sure following in the steps of her father.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Kind sponsorship of the show was from Johnstone and Jeff, LBS Gold Chips Bedding, EMP Donald Cooke, Rob Harvey, Johnson’s, Birdcare, Ryders Rosettes, providing products for exhibiting members.\u00a0 There were trophies from The Australian\/New Zealand Lizard Canary Association, Rosettes from all the Leading Lizard Canary societies in the UK as well as Spain, Portugal, Italy, but the day belonged to a very surprised but worthy winner Dave Newton for benching a fine example of a Broken Cap Gold Hen with good ground colour and clarity of spangle.<\/div>\n
