The main focus at Coalgate was in the sheep pens where two large consignments of breeding ewes complimented a solid sized yarding of store lambs and small-to-moderate number of prime sheep. Good turnout for the store lambs saw them lift by at least $8/hd, putting heavy lines at $111-$121 and medium-to-good cuts around $90-$109. Prime lambs lifted by as much as $5/hd, whereas the prime ewes held steady. Boner dairy cows, 525-690kg, went for $1.53-$1.58/kg, while a line of 560kg prime Charolais-cross heifers stood out at $2.74/kg.
