Courtney Hazeldene
• Embryo • Murray Grey
• Sire: GANADO VENOM MVA24V9 • Dam: GANADO ANNA 2ND MVA N34
• **SOLD ON A PER EMBRYO BASIS** Ganado Anna 2nd is a proven breeder with a strong track record of producing stud-quality progeny. With calves already sold into registered studs, she continues to demonstrate reliability, fertility and genuine genetic value. She is an easy-calving, highly maternal cow who consistently maintains condition while directing her energy into raising strong, growthy calves. In type, Anna 2nd offers tremendous body volume, softness and capacity, supported by sound, functional structure.

Lot 2 - 1 A GRADE EMBRYO WAROONA TAREE ASH N20 X GANADO TAYTO MVA N37

Courtney Hazeldene
• Embryo • Murray Grey
• Sire: GANADO TAYTO MVA N37 • Dam: WAROONA TAREE ASH N20
• **SOLD ON A PER EMBRYO BASIS** Taree was secured as the equal top-priced female at the 2021 Waroona Production Sale - and she has more than validated that investment. A beautifully balanced, free moving cow, she stands on excellent feet and at 9 years reflects both structural integrity and maternal function. Taree combines genuine body depth and softness with strength and capacity, all while maintaining femininity. Her standout achievement is as the dam of Ganado Too Cool MVA T16, a multiple broad ribbon winner—supreme exhibit (Melbourne Royal 2023), best beef bred bull (Bendigo 2023), and supreme exhibit & top-priced bull at the national show & sale 2024 ($11,000), along with senior champion bull at Adelaide royal 2024. This is a cow that produces at the highest level. With Too Cool tracing back to Ganado Tayto, selecting Tayto as the flushing sire is a deliberate move to reinforce a proven genetic combination. Tayto is a soft, thick, easy-doing bull with natural muscle, balance and structural integrity. His ability to add shape, finish, and commercial performance complements Taree’s scale, strength and maternal power, with calving ease in spades. A proven sire, Tayto produced the 2022 Premier Sale record topper Ganado R2-D2, now leaving his mark through multiple broad ribbon winners. Expect progeny with depth, muscle, structure and quiet temperament – offering genuine stud appeal with strong commercial relevance.

• Embryo • Murray Grey
• Sire: MONTEREY UNIT HOLDER • Dam: GANADO PLATINUM 2ND S18
• **SOLD ON A PER EMBRYO BASIS** The Platinum line needs no introduction at Ganado — a family synonymous with quality and performance.

Monterey Unit Holder GJB Z2 has been selected as the joining sire for this mating to enhance milk, increase EMA and further strengthen carcase merit. Progeny from this mating are expected to exhibit outstanding structural integrity, explosive growth, and genuine softness through the carcase. With frame, depth and performance, this mating offers versatility – equally suited to the show ring or premium eating quality programs.

Very few cows in the breed can claim such results across multiple generations.

Her udder remains highly functional, and her Milk EBV ranks in the top 3% of the breed. She carries a broad, strong topline, deep flank and an unmistakable maternal presence.

Venom offers outstanding muscle expression, structural correctness, and excellent untrimmed feet, all in a moderate frame adding shape and commercial appeal. J98 can do no wrong with what she produces and I’m confident this mating will continue that trend – prepare the front paddock!
