See gallery below.
Blair Forrest, secretary of the Gundy Campdraft, which was voted best campdraft in the country said they decided to keep the draft to just one day this year, but it was a great day.

“We added an extra jackpot because we ended up with an extra 50 cattle, which was so generous off the sponsor,” said Ms Forrest.
“Cattle are hard to secure at the moment because of their prices and while we were thankful to have more than 400, having 550 was fantastic,” she said.
“It meant we then had another 50 entries for the extra jackpot,” she said.
“The weather has been great, the ground has been great and it has been a big day,” Blair Forrest said.
