Assessor Comments
A neat line of well bred Poll Hereford heifers presenting in principally store condition. Heifers are AI bred by leading Poll Hereford sires with Tarcombe, Glen Goulburn, Bowen & Mountain Valley bloodlines prominent. They present in good order considering they have experienced some of the drier & tighter condtions in southwest Victoria their whole lives. Frame to work with, ideal article to finish into trade or export markets later in the year or to join for an autumn 2026 calf.
