PICK OF 3 FULL FLUSH HEIFERS
Palgrove Charolais
· Flush · Charolais · Sire: PLEASE SEE CATALOGUE · Dam: PLEASE SEE CATALOGUE · PK25W83E, PK25W44E, PK25W53E (Pick of 3 flush sisters) True to our word, when we release females of this calibre it’s a genuine opportunity to secure the very best our program has to offer — something we don’t do more than twice in a decade. These three full flush sisters, all from one of our elite donor females, represent a rare chance for new or established stud breeders to invest in a future donor female with enormous upside. We couldn’t split them, so the choice is yours — and what a statement they would make at the World Congress in Brisbane this August. They are out of a proven donor female and sired by Rockerfella, who sold to the Ascot Stud for $100,000 in 2022. His first sons featured in last year’s sale, with 20 sons selling to average $20,737, underlining the consistency and demand for this sire line. They also have a full flush brother from the same program who is something truly special. If we don’t retain him, he will feature as a highlight bull in the yearling section of our September sale. Their dam has an outstanding production record, with 20 recorded progeny before the age of five, returning over $100,000 in her first year of sales from just five progeny. This included Ultrahot, who sold to Futurity Charolais for $40,000, and another daughter who sold to Black Duck Charolais for $18,000 as a 10-month-old heifer, who has since entered their donor program. The granddam is also a prominent donor with progeny reaching $36,000. A further first-calf Landmark daughter retained in our herd and full sister to Ultrahot ($40,000) was flushed this year, producing 14 eggs, reinforcing the exceptional fertility and consistency of this female line. You take the choice — and ‘Make your Mark’ on the Charolais breed.

RECIPIENT: Baldridge Badger x Killain Emblynette 60 S32
KILLAIN ANGUS
· PTIC cow · Angus · Sire: BALDRIDGE BADGER · Dam: KILLAIN EMBLYNETTE 60 S32 · PTIC Recipient: Implant Date: 12/11/2025 PTIC: 11/01/2026 Due Date: 14/08/2026. What a joining here by the globally renowned Baldridge Badger. Badger consistently stamps his progeny with incredible muscle shape, capacity, thickness and pure power along with impeccable feet and docility. Killain Emblynette 60 S32 is an impressive individual with the pedigree to match and will be a massive part of our show team for 2026. S32 is an imported embryo by the world record selling Angus bull, S A V America 8018, who sold for $1.51M USD out of S A V Emblynette 7800 out of the pathfinder dam S A V Emblynette 0491. This pedigree brings together some of the best genetics in the Angus breed especially when you add in Badger's dam, the legendary Baldridge Isabel Y69!
