A smaller yarding of just 33 cattle were on offer at Stortford Lodge on Monday.  The sale was dominated by quality cows which could have been sold several times over, such was the level of interest in them. Angus-Hereford, 529-634kg, made $2.20-$2.37/kg.

A line of nine Angus steers, 601kg, were strong at $3.06/kg.

With Mother Nature turning up the temperature, everyone was happy that the sheep section was done and dusted in quick time. The ewe market was strong with lifts shown for most.  Heavy ewes made $140-$150.50, medium-good to good $119-$135.50, light-medium to medium $101-$123, and the lighter end $70-$94.

Lambs were mainly all small mixed sex lines and of very good quality. The majority earned $120-$133 with top cuts at $139-$142, and the tail end returned a solid $109.50.
