Edward Brown of H&H was openly delighted with the success. “Overall
it has been a fantastic day and much of the credit must go
to the vendors who had committed themselves to the sale by
consigning fabulous animals. I feel sure that many of the buyers
were able to invest in top quality genetics, with a lot of
heifers changing hands at the sort of money that vendors were
well rewarded for and purchasers were able to pay.
