I wouldn't be far from saying the mood round the ring is a little cautious, but the fourth animal in to the ring, Smiddiehill Goldwyn Jennifer, carrying an embryo by Jasper and the famous Field of Dreams Formation Erle has just gone through at 5800gns to Barbican Farms, the home of the Erle line.
Just before that her mother Primo Gibson Jennifer has gone to Hugh Fish, Ireland for 4800gns.
A John Barker bred December 2005 heifer Ridgefield Sept St Ghost (lot 6) has gone through at 5400gns to Peter Jones, Monmouthshire.
The junior champion from the Royal Show, Smiddiehill Marbel Mavis, having given 11,734 litres in her first lactation and goes to Brian Clothier, Somerset for 1500gns. Her daughter by Damion (lot 8) has gone through at 2400gns to a Cornish buyer (not the Wills!).
Born in Ireland by the Border Mist Syndicate, Bodermist Talent Rhoda (lot 9), the VG 87 2-year has knocked down at 2800gns to Peter Jones.
