PRIME SHEEP: On Monday 5th May Harrison & Hetherington’s held their weekly sale of prime and cast sheep, despite the bank holiday numbers again came forward in their droves with the hogg section well supported once more , fewer ewes with only local sheep on offer were well sold throughout with continental and Suffolk ewes good to sell, with lighter hill types being slightly less on the week, 85 spring lambs this week were forward for the spring singles show, which was kindly judged by Ben Haigh Hexham who awarded the championship to the 1st prize single from Messrs Butler, Moor Platts which topped the section at £194 purchased by West Scottish. Plenty trade to be done north of 400p with Messrs Braid Leithenhall selling a ring full of Texel x lambs weighing 45kg selling at £182.
Despite a capitulation midweek onwards last week Borderway lives up to its reputation with a hogg trade beyond any expectations these topped at £200 for a Beltex and to 540p for Beltex a special mention to Tom Robin and Moira Fisher who consigned the largest run of hoggs ever seen in Borderway selling 1188 head, and after their trade declaring Carlisle to be the only market to sell prime sheep.
