Daniel Craddock from Corcoran Parker said the heifers performed well across the board.

Transcript

00:00Prices were very strong on a very good yarding of coloured Hereford, Black Baldy and Euro calves.

00:08The steer job early on was very strong and in places comparable to the Black Sale two days ago.

00:14We had some very good runs of cattle out of the Mansfield district,

00:18making up to $1800 and $1900 and into the mid to high $5 a kilo in places.

00:23A highlight for me was the heifer job.

00:26And Euro heifers made actually up and over $5 a kilogram in places.

00:31Hereford heifers up to $4.50, so they put a really strong floor right throughout the job for the day.

00:38And who were the major buyers at the sale today?

00:41The buying strength, where did the cattle go?

00:43There's cattle have gone everywhere.

00:45From Gippsland, there were a couple of good orders out of Gippsland, including one on the Euro steers.

00:50The local competition from within two hours of Wodonga was excellent,

00:54as well as cattle going as far as Tamworth, Gundawindi and either southern Queensland.

01:01So cattle going all different directions.
