Commentary

Smallest yarding for some time as numbers dropped away to just 1900 lambs and 700 sheep. Quality was generally only reasonable to plain. Despite the restrictions on numbers and quality there was still a good field of buyers and price trends were dearer. The better quality heavy and trade lambs sold above an estimated 1050c to more than 1100c/kg at times.

A run of long-woolled lambs with some weight and condition underneath sold from $265 to a top of $349/head in a strong outcome. A few pens of handy heavy trade lambs $248 to $280/head. Medium trade lambs $190 to $230/head on very mixed quality. It was a scrappy collection of lighter lambs with the better types sold in reasonable numbers from $88 to $155/head across mixed breeds.

Not a lot of sheep to quote, but results were firm to dearer particularly across the lighter conditioned ewes. Merino ewes to $220 and a few big crossbreds to $223/head.
