Lancaster Sale Reports

Friday 11th DecemberFriday 11th DecemberFriday 11th DecemberFriday 11th December The annual Christmas show and sale of pairs of Store Heifers and Bullocks saw an impressive line-up of ten pens of bullocks and five pens of heifers out to show. The show was expertly judged by Andrew Ashford of Bedale. In one of the strongest show classes of show bullocks at Lancaster the first prize rosette was awarded to David Moorhouse of High House Farm with a couple of Limousin’s and was also awarded the champion rosette and took home the Tom Owen Memorial Trophy for the champion pair of bullocks. The first prize pair of heifers was awarded to David and Maggie Kelly of Nether Hall Farm. Credit must go the vendors of store cattle at Lancaster for the quality cattle on offer today and was fantastic to see such a busy ringside of vendors and buyers throughout the sale. The current prime cattle trade continues to fall with many meat companies dropping dead weight prices over the next few weeks but this was not reflected in trade with prices continuing to be strong. The trade topped at £1470 for the Champion pair of bullocks from David Moorhouse selling to Rod Owen of Widness. Plenty short keep heavy weight bullocks sold between £1200 and £1350. Heifers sold to a top of £1240 for an Angus Heifer from Neil Davis of Nateby. All classes of cattle eagerly bid for today with vendors leaving pleased with their trade.

Thursday 10th DecemberThursday 10th DecemberThursday 10th DecemberThursday 10th December The annual Christmas show and sale of Calves at J36 had a bumper entry of over 130 forward. The pre-sale show had an extremely impressive line-up of calves in front of Judge Mr Jeff Robinson of Farleton. Brian Wilson of Spout House took the hat trick, winning all three classes with an impressive Limousin Bull, a Limousin Heifer and a British Friesian Bull, who went on to take champion and reserve, with the Limousin Bull and Limousin heifer respectively. The trade was generally slightly easier, as has been seen at other auctions market centres, with current prime cattle and store cattle trades in decline. The price drop has been passed down the line to calves. Weaned British Blue bull calves sold to £505 from JW & TE Sharpe of Flodder Hall, with others selling to £480 from TK Robinson & Son of Greaves Farm. Month old British Blue heifers sold to £380 and £378 JC Hodgson of Dillicar. The champion calf sold to £320 from B Wilson of Spout House, with the reserve Champion selling at £315. British Friesian bull calves sold to £200 for the first prize from B Wilson of Spout House. Young black and white rearers sold between £70 and £85 with all black and whites forward averaging £68 for a young show of Black and whites for-ward. Ian Atkinson, Auctioneer commented, “A wonderful entry of 130+ Calves and Stirks at J36 today, saw some top quality Calves on offer. The trade was buoy-ant in comparison with other local markets, with Calf trade in general, slightly back, due to Store Cattle and Prime Beef prices.”
