Typical Northern Territory and Northern Qld bred, they can move very freely if allowed but will block up when pressure is applied. Very very good to handle in the paddock but typical to type they can feel unsettled when too much pressure is applied. They have been well handled and flowed very well through the yards and race, stood well on the scales that were not centered in the crush.
