240 Store & Breeding Cattle
An excellent entry and more buyers around the ring produced a very good trade all through. A touch more action in the beef trade helped the stronger end and quality younger cattle found many more bidders than of late. Tony Mallon secured top price with Limousin Heifers 22mo at £1095 and £990. His excellent run of younger Lincoln Red x and Limousin x cattle were also a feature of the sale with buyers trying to secure quality cattle for the future.
