Paddock
Temperament not assessed in Paddock
Good to handle in and out of the yards. Free moving yet calmly through the race & yards requiring normal blocking through gates. The odd steer doubled up in the race however blocked easily with a small number fidgety on the scales eager to exit the crush yet clam well when in the mob.

Assessor Comments
Very good quality large frame Santa, Santa cross & Char/Santa cross steers backgrounding to light feeder steers. Ideal steers with good growth and frame to add weight - more frame than weight at this stage. HGP free - bone and stretch - very good quality. The non vendor bred portion were purchased in March 2023 on cows from "Paradise Downs" Blackall - a highly regarded top quality herd.
