The sale commenced with Beef Breeding Cattle which included a herd dispersal from the late Mr W E Parker of Thwaite Farm, Howgill. Cows and calves were to £1980 and In-Calf cows to £1300. A full pedigree Limousin bull from the same home sold to £2,450.

A packed ringside of customers gathered, which included several new faces to J36 for the sale of Store Cattle. The sale was made up of, predominantly, young, 10-12 mo summering cattle, which, once again, met a tremendous trade. There was also a great show of stronger bullocks and heifers forward, which saw Limousin bullocks sell to £1,400 from J & M E Bateman of Lowgill. Heifers were to £1180 for a Limousin from Mr J A Chapman.

The anniversary show of Store Cattle was judged by Mr Andrew Smith of Westhouse and we thank him for his time and expertise. After judging the two classes, he awarded the championship rosette to a cracking, 9 mo British Blue bullock, shown by S G Benson of Horrace Farm, Ulverston. This went on to be bought by the judge for £1,100. The reserve Champion ticket went to a very stylish 10 mo British Blue heifer from R H & C Ayrton of Abbeystead, which sold to Mr John Bowling of Wigan.

The pre-sale show of Calves 60 days and under was kindly judged by Callum Taylor of County Durham. The beef class was very close with the first prized rosette being awarded to JW & D Robinson & Sons of Hollins Farm. In the Holstein Friesian class in was a clean sweep of 1st, 2nd and 3rd for J & O Galbraith & Son of Endmoor Farm. The overall champion awarded to the British Blue Bull from JW & D Robinson & Sons of Hollins Farm.

A shortage of numbers forward today with many more needed to fill the demand of buyers old and new, with fresh faces around the ring today from as far afield as Worcestershire. The trade for beef calves continues to be consistently good and plenty more could have easily been sold to vendor’s advantage.

The Champion calf sold to £485 from JW & D Robinson & Sons of Hollins Farm at 60 days old to the judge of Callum Taylor. A few older calves in the market today between 60 and 90 days of age selling to a top of £510 for a British Blue Bull from JW & TE Sharp of Flodder Hall, who also had calves to £490.
