These steers were very good to handle in & out of the yards. I watched them being let out by one person on a bike and they walked away from the yards nice and quietly. They have only been weaned for just over a week. A handful of the steers stirred up in the race and crush but settled down when let out with the others. These steers have been pound drafted and had a 60km truck trip from the vendors other property.

Assessor Comments
68 VGQ HGP free soft crossbred steers that have very good bone, length, depth and frame for their breed and age. They are ideal backgrounding steers that would grow into very good feeder or slaughter steers suitable for most markets. These steers are from a highly regarded herd and they will continue to perform on good quality feed. They are very quiet with tidy heads & good feet. Those steers with horns, have only very small weaner horns. 2 steers have either a blue or cloudy eye. A Simmental / Charolais cross steer had been late cut. They are vendor bred (5 family brands) out of large frame cows by VGQ bulls. The majority were weaned over the past week. These weaner steers have been very well handled and were in the yard Sunday night & had 25mm of rain so were let out into the holding paddock and re-yarded on Tuesday morning prior to assessing. Vendor has another 2 lots of weaners in this sale. "Weston" is Prickly Acacia free where these steers are running.

BEN NEVIS JEAN P303
Ben Nevis Grazing Co
· Cow · Angus · Sire: PREMIER GUARDIAN M12 · Dam: BEN NEVIS JEAN L115 · Sells open with bull calf at foot born 17/02/26 by Ben Nevis Rambo R230. We are very proud of Donor Jean P303 – the mother ship. Jean B21’s progeny directly shows the power and consistency of our cow lines here with 9 lots represented. P303 has been a very successful donor for us and is a prolific egg producer, averaging over nine eggs per flush conventional. Her eleven sons that have gone through the sale have consistently featured in our top pens. P303 is the most impressive cow in the flesh showing phenomenal capacity, consistent with Premier Guardian and the renowned Premier Jestress H66 cow in her paternal pedigree. Her eggs raised $5050 each by Rob and Tania Jarret in 2022 at the Molong Flood Charity Auction and we raised over $20,000 for flood victims in all. Her current bull calf by Rambo is an absolute ripper. Her maternal aunt is Lot 4, with both her and P303’s dam out of G117, sister to D71 who is the dam of H215.

4 x EMBRYOS BEN NEVIS JEAN S047
Ben Nevis Grazing Co
· Embryo · Angus · Sire: BEN NEVIS MONARCH M128 · Dam: BEN NEVIS JEAN P59 · 4 x A GRADE IVF EXPORT QUALIFIED OR DOMESTIC EMBRYOS When S47’s Grandam H215 sold we missed her terribly, but we had her daughter M30 to fill the void. When she died from an accident last year we knew immediately that S47 would take up the mantle. While Jean S47 herself is not in the Mature Cow Sale in the spirit of the sale we have made her available in the form of an exclusive embryo package. S47 has already established herself selling her first run of 5 bulls at last years’ sale for an average of $18,000 with three of them heading to studs including Wattletop, Karoo and Excel Genetics. Her grand dam is the $82K Ben Nevis Jean H215 and her dam is a full sister to Lots 1, 38, 55 with Lot 1 being the Australian record holder for embryo’s sold at auction for $6,000 per egg to Mackas Angus. S47’s eggs by Knowla So Right were exported to the USA to Darrel and Sara Stevensons from Stevensons Down T Ranch in Montana. S47 is currently in export quarantine and can be IVF’ed to the bull of your choice for Domestic, US, NZ, Sth America or EU accredited eggs for 4 A grade eggs. Sold price per egg for 4 eggs.

· Cow · Angus · Sire: H P C A PROCEED · Dam: BEN NEVIS JEAN H215 · Sells Open Ready to flush. Simply a magnificent cow to start the sale, reflecting perfectly the type of animal we strive to breed with the pedigree and performance to match. She doesn’t just move, she glides with all her generous booty in sync. Along with sister M30, Jean N238’s embryos broke the Angus Australian record at the recent WAF Angus on Ice Auction selling for $6,000 per egg to Mackas Angus. N238 has had 12 bulls at sale for us, consistently making the top pens and a daughter in the sale in Lot 28. She is part of a f lush that is legendary - producing Ben Nevis Newsflash to Bannaby (Grandsire of the $230K Banquet Tom Cruise), Lot 38 Jean N119 (dam of the $56K Ben Nevis Undertaker to Palgrove), Lot 55 Jean N116 and lastly Jean P59 (dam of our exciting Lot 3 Embryo opportunity).
