The market fed off the promise of another big grass season and recent trading of feeder cattle at high money values. The sale was on par to the recent store sale at CTLX. The standout feature of the sale was it price consistency for well-bred Angus steers and heifers over all categories. A large field of buyers made it to the sale with restockers volume buyers over all classes. Feedlots were also a player at the sale for cattle carrying weight and plenty of frame. Cattle retuning to the paddock were destined for Oberon, Gilgandra, Come By Chance, Victoria, and St George Queensland just to name a few.
