Numbers fell and the quality improved with a better bred line up. Weaners were well supplied and there were fewer yearlings. Feeders and a few restocking orders purchased most of the young cattle with the trade buyers remaining very selective. Prime grown steers were limited and there were plenty of plain light weight grown heifers. Around 280 cows were penned. Young cattle were dearer but cows eased.
