CHAMPIONS FROM CHAMPIONS
One of the joys of World Dairy Expo is sitting in the seats watching various champion parades of our fabulous dairy shows. Whether it’s the animals competing for Junior Champion Milking Shorthorn, Intermediate Champion Red & White or Grand Champion Jersey, it’s always an impressive lineup and every year we get to appreciate the unbelievable caliber of cattle strolling in front of the crowd. This year, while watching the Grand Champion Holstein parade, it was a real pleasure to realize that in years gone by, we’ve cheered for some of these cow’s foremothers as well! There seemed to be a fair number of cattle throughout the week that had some very familiar names in their pedigrees, so we did a little digging and sorted out those 2021 champions that have a ‘family tradition’ of Expo titles!
Perhaps the most obvious is Erbacres Snapple ShakiraET EX-97, the Grand Champion of the International Holstein Show. Her roots with former Expo Champions are well-known - her dam, Miss Apple Snapple-Red EX-96 was the Reserve Senior Champion & HM Grand Champion of the International R&W Show in 2017, and her legendary grandam, KHW Regiment Apple-Red-ET EX-96, was Grand Champion of that show in 2011 and Reserve Grand in 2011.
The cow moving into the Reserve Grand Champion position at the Holstein Show, Oakfield Solomon Footloose EX-94 also walked where her grandam held the spotlight more than a decade ago. Footloose is out of Duckett-SA Braxtn Frisco-ET, the EX-94 daughter of 2-time World Dairy Expo Supreme Champion, Harvue Roy Frosty EX-97.
As you might expect, we return to the direct influence of Apple when we peruse the International Red & White Show champions. The Reserve Grand Champion and Champion Bred & Owned cow of the show - Westcoast Defiant Addison EX-95-2E-CAN - is a daughter of KHW Regiment Apple 3-Red-ETN EX-94-CAN 4*, the Apple clone who was Grand Champion of the same show in 2013.
Sco-Lo Dice Hotstuff-Red-ET topped a competitive fall calf class in the Red & White Show on her way to a Reserve Junior Champion title. If the name Hotstuff sounds familiar, her granddam, Starmark Ad HotstuffRed-ET EX-94 was the Reserve Grand Champion of the show in 2012 as a 5-year-old.
In a further stretch pedigree-wise, the Intermediate Champion of the 2021 International Red & White Show, Scenic-Edge Jordan-Red EX-92, follows the Scenic-Edge path back four generations to a 2009 Expo Junior Champion in Scenic-Edge Jellybean EX94, when she won as a Fall Yearling.
The Brown Swiss kept it all in the family as 2021 Grand Champion, Cutting Edge Thunder Faye EX-95, followed her dam, Cutting Edge Elite Fayann EX-90, in being named an Expo champion. Fayann was the Intermediate Champion of the International Brown Swiss Show in 2014. Her Thunder son, Foremost, is a full brother to Faye and sired the Reserve Grand Champion of this year’s show, Cutting Edge F FarohETV VG-89.
The easiest pairing to guess based on their names alone might be the Intermediate & Reserve Grand Champion of the International Ayrshire Show, Palmyra Predator B Ruthless EX-91. She’s a direct daughter of Palmyra Berkeley P Ruth EX-94, the two-time, back-toback Grand Champion of the show in 2017 & 2018.
Another dam-daughter champion pair also represented in the Ayrshire Show came with the Reserve Senior Champion, Toppglen Wishful ThinkingET EX-94 who is out of Conebella Sarge’s Wendy EX-93, the Grand Champion of the Junior Show in 2011.
One more Grand Champion link showed up in the Ayrshire show as the Reserve Intermediate Champion, Miss Malibu Mimosa EX-91, through an EX-94 dam and EX-92 grandam, can count Valevue BBK Minerva EX96 3E, three-time Expo Grand Champion, as her third dam.
Corstar Presto Lulu-ET EX-92, won the aged cow class on her way to be named Reserve Grand Champion of the International Milking Shorthorn Show. She also needs to look back only a couple generations to see that her third dam, Nixs Lilly Pad EX-93, also stood for headshots as the Grand Champion of the show in 2008.
It wouldn’t be a high-end Jersey show without a champion from the Veronica family, and sure enough, we found one in the Reserve Intermediate Champion - Pacific Edge Premier Diva-ET, the VG-89 senior 2-yearold. Out of an EX-93 Colton, then an EX-95 Primetime, next in line is the incomparable Huronia Centurion Veronica EX-97 5E, a three-time Expo Grand Champion, and Supreme Champion in 2006.
Veronica blood can also be found in the Reserve Junior Champion, Arethusa Gentry Chante-ET, the winning winter yearling. Out of the Furor daughter, Arethusa Veronicas Comet EX-95, Chante calls EX-97 Veronica her grandam.

A HOME RUN CAREER
It’s a balancing act keeping this junior’s schedule in check between his passions for elite baseball and for elite show cattle. Johnathon “Johnny” Clark pulls it off with ease, even if it means picking and choosing between games and shows. It is no shock that he would “catch the bug” of showing as his grandparents are Greg and Marcia Clark of GMC Farm. “I would have to say one of my greatest role models is my grandparents,” Clark said. “They have had one of the best herds in the Milking Shorthorn breed for a long time now, proving it with All-American nominations year after year.” Johnny, his parents, and siblings own and operate Ginger Valley Farm in Cornish, New Hampshire. Clark had an early start in the show business, even before he could walk. At the age of four, he was able to make his solo debut showing in peewee showmanship at his county fair. Starting out with Milking Shorthorns and Brown Swiss, his family slowly gravitated towards Ayrshires and Milking Shorthorns. Currently, the farm has nineteen head and has had quite the year in the show ring! At the 2021 Northeast National Milking Shorthorn Show at the Eastern States Exposition the Clarks, both GMC Farm and Ginger Valley Farm, had Junior Champion, Reserve Junior Champion, Intermediate Champion, Reserve and Honorable Mention Intermediate Champion, Senior and Honorable Mention Senior Champions, and ultimately Grand, Reserve Grand, and Honorable Mention Grand Champion. How many people can say that about their family’s show string? That was just the beginning for Clark, being successful and eager and wanting more. He and his dad, Greg Clark Jr., took the trek and had the mindset of “all roads lead to Madison!” The 2021 World Dairy Expo was something special for everyone that attended. “My greatest memory has to be this year at the World Dairy Expo,” Johnny says, and it’s no shock as to why. Clark came home with the titles of Intermediate and Reserve Intermediate Champion as well as Reserve and Honorable Mention Grand Champion of the International Junior Milking Shorthorn Show. But the success doesn’t stop there! In the International Milking Shorthorn Show, he took home Intermediate Champion and Honorable Mention Grand Champion. “There was a lot going through my mind during Intermediate Champion of both shows. A lot of it was nerves and the thought: “Wow, I’m really in the middle of the ring at the biggest show in the world!” Clark said after reminiscing on his win. What makes these wins even more sweet is that the cows go back to, what Clark says, are their most influential cow families within their herd. Both cows, Gin-Val Logic Lauretta-EXP and GinVal Princeton Leanna-EXP go back to GE Lake Effect MD Lauren. The “Lauren” family has had numerous All-American nominations. Another influential cow for Clark is Heavenly Creampuff. “She was the first cow I bought on my own,” he said. “As a Spring Calf she was Honorable Mention All American, as a Spring Yearling she was Unanimous All American, and as a Junior Three she was Honorable Mention All American.” She continues to hold a special spot for Clark in his show memories, with daughters and granddaughters doing well also.
Getting into the other side of Clark’s elite passions; his baseball career. This past summer, Johnny played for the New England Ravens 14U, he and his team finished as the 9th seed in the New Balance Select League. That season he finished with a 0.98 ERA (earned run average) and a 0.58 WHIP (walks hits/ innings pitched.) In August, a trip to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina was made for baseball and not a vacation. While there, Clark played on the 14U Red New Balance Select National Team. The team was the runner-up in the Hang Ten Tournament at the Ripken Experience. Next summer, the New Hampshire Prospects 15U Team will continue to have Johnathon Clark on the field.
As for the future, Clark said they are planning on downsizing the herd. Clark and his siblings, Cassandra, Zachary, and Thomas, are getting more involved in sports. They made the decision to put more focus on a fewer number of animals, mainly being heifers. This will decrease the things needed to be done when Johnny is gone at baseball tournaments in Florida, as well as other places. So, while the showstring may be smaller in the coming years, don’t get caught looking when it comes to the Gin-Vail prefix!
