Border & Lakeland Holstein Club Sale & Tallent Major Reduction

The October Border & Lakeland sale attracted another wonderful group of well-bred Holstein cattle all producing large volumes of milk from top breeders in the North of England & Scotland. Trade topped at 3400gns with the milking heifers averaging £2580 and 10 heifers selling for over 3000gns.

The show was sponsored by Dugdale Nutrition and the Overall Champion went to Hethersgill Royal Liza selling for 2900gns going to Messrs Reed, Seaton, Devon.

Top price in the Border & Lakeland club sale was Wormanby Rapid Ruby who sold for 3400gns to Messrs Millar, Lockerbie. This was closely followed by Stowbeck Attico Lillibet at 3300gns selling to Messrs Coulthurst, Goosnargh, Preston.

The sale included the major reduction of the Tallent herd which topped at 4600gns for Tallent Samaritan Sabrina 2, a recently calved heifer that was purchased by Messrs Callion from Workington. Second top price in this section was Tallent Samaritian Gaye at 3700gns, this 2^nd calver sold to Messrs Gilmour from Maybole, Ayrshire.
