Sporadic storms did not deter numbers with an increased yarding of 630 to yard 5320 cattle. It was a fair to good quality yarding with large numbers of cows as well as increased numbers of young cattle to suit both feeders and backgrounders. There were limited numbers of steers and heifers supplied.

Yearling feeders were slightly dearer with the steers making from 450 to 514c/kg. Yearling heifers to feed ranged from 320c to 441c/kg. Restocker steers were 3 to 5c dearer selling to 540c/kg. Young heifers were firm selling to 450c/kg.

Grown steers and heifers were dearer with few to compare to in the previous sale. Prime grown steers sold from 426c to 480c and prime grown heifers sold from 396c to 476c/kg.
