Good turnout of stock met with a solid trade. Very strong trade for store heifers and weanling heifers
with a complete clearance due to the large number of buyers in attendance. The plain store bullock
and weanling bull, were harder sold. In general, sellers will have their cattle sold within three hours of
entry. Cattle weigh in well on their way to the ring, as they are not standing around for too long.
