Prime vealers topping at 576c or $1900 and trade yearlings reaching 572c/kg were the highlights of the 1491 fair to outstanding quality cattle, an increase of 150. There were excellent runs of high yielding yearlings to process, along with some good pens of yearling heifers to feed. Young cattle returning to the paddock were well supplied and there were 250 cows.. All the usual buyers were operating with the young cattle to process sold to dearer trends, and heavy grown cattle and cows to process were cheaper.
B muscled trade yearlings lifted 8c, selling from 528c to 572c and C muscled types ranged from 440c to 514c/kg. Feeder steers were firm to a few cents easier, making from 418c to 470c, and heifers to feed were considerably dearer, topping at 444c/kg. Well-bred weaners attracted strong competition resulting in dearer prices, and the plainer types sold to cheaper trends. Steers ranged from 300c to 566c, and the heifers sold from 232c to 506c/kg.
