Bred by Gotta Rock, she is from Mount Austin blood that Ms Conley originally formed her stud on.
She said she was ecstatic about the supreme ribbon result.
“Her mother was a former champion who only ever gives us twins or triplets,” Ms Conley said.
“She is really fertile, really muscular and has a beautiful top line about her.”
Ms Conley also won the Kameroo South Suffolks Trophy for the best ewe bred by the exhibitor.
Judge Ian Starritt, “Woomoota”, Echuca, said the ewe was an extremely good animal.
“Her body structure is excellent, her shoulder placing, her barrel, and plenty of spring of rib.
“She is extremely well put together.”
Champion South Suffolk ram was shown by Barry Shalders, Willow Drive, Derrinallum.
It was the same ram that won supreme South Suffolk exhibit at last year’s Australian Sheep and Wool Show.
Of Tye bloodline, Mr Shalders said the ram stood out to him from the flock as being well put together, good in the shoulders and feet.
Willow Creek also won the most successful South Suffolk exhibitor prize.
