Heifers worked quite well and were respectful in the crush but did push a bit up the race. When out in large yards they were eager to look for an open gate but could be easily blocked.

Assessor Comments
Offering 114 quality Santa & Santa Cross heifers. The heifers were 270kg live at assessment after a night in the yards on hay and water. These vendor bred heifers present in fresh condition and look to be still going forward. The heifers are well bred and show good bone and frame that will grow into good feeders or be kept to join as replacement breeders. Don't miss this opportunity to put away a quality line of Santa heifers that have a solid reputation to perform. Please note there are another 2 decks of Santa/Angus cross heifers from the vendor in the same sale. Also note 1 heifer showing some eye scarring on one eye.
