Numbers were steady and the quality improved with more of the young cattle heavier and more condition. There were a few pens of weaners and limited numbers of medium weight feeders. Trade cattle were slightly better supplied. Grown steers were very limited and the grown heifers were very mixed in weight and condition. Around 140 cows were penned. Young cattle were cheaper, as were the well covered grown steers and heifers but cow were mostly dearer.

Heifers were 3c to 5c cheaper with the feeders ranging from 424c to 506c/kg. Trade steers lost 10c selling to 500c/kg but yearling steers over 480kg were 30c stronger selling to 530c/kg.
