The top price of the day, at 18,000gns, went to the Junior and Reserve Overall Champion ELGIN REDRUM from the herd of R A Milne in Elgin, Morayshire.

Following closely behind Redrum, at a final price of 17,000gns, was Reserve Junior Champion HARESTONE SUPERIOR from R & N Barclay in Insch, Aberdeenshire. At only 14 months old, Superior was amongst the youngest of the bulls on offer.

Also selling for 10,000gns was 17-month-old ELLERTON RAZZMATAZZ, bred by A Brown of Selby, North Yorkshire.

Brailes Samson, sold for 9,000gns
