Although not many Charolais females were forwarded for this year's Perth sales, it was one of Perthshire's leading pedigree buyers Adrian Ivory back round the sale ring selecting the finer genetics on offer.
Dunesk Victoria (pictured below), a powerful August 2004-born heifer from the Angus-based McMillan family took Adrian's eye as he paid 5500gns for the Moyness Statesman-sired heifer. Out of Dunesk Northstar, she sells having been AI'd to Burradon Talisman.
And it was return of old faithful himself Jim Goldie to take the championship spot with his July 2004-born heifer, Goldies Val. This embryo bred Maerdy Naser daughter is a full sister to Goldies Uppermost, the supreme champion from Perth February 2005, which sold for the top price of 34,000gns. Val sold for the second highest price 3200gns to Mr Innes.
