Most of the usual buyers were present and operating selectively in a cheaper market in places. Quality remained low with finish hard to find and cows representing half of the sale. Trade cattle were in short supply as young lots returned to local paddocks at similar prices. Grown steers eased 25c/kg. Manufacturing steers lost 20c to 35c/kg. Cows slipped 40c to 70c/kg. Heavy bulls eased 8c/kg.

Yearling steers to feed and restock orders sold from 270c to 339c/kg. Yearling heifers sold to local restockers between 220c and 290c with a few to the trade between 325c and 350c/kg. Grown steers and bullocks sold between 300c and 342c/kg.

Manufacturing steers made from 214c to 304c/kg. Most light and medium weight cows sold from 133c to 224c/kg. Heavy weight cows made mostly between 190c and 277c/kg. Heavy bulls sold between 290c and 330c/kg.
