2015 AUTUMN WELSHPOOL SALE

A good trade at Welshpool Livestock Market on 17th October showed that Salers are very much in demand, especially females.
Pedigree females topped at 3650gns for Felin Infinity (Champion Female at this year’s Royal Welsh Show) bred by Harri and Sioned Pritchard from Pwllheli, Gwynedd. Infinity, born 19/03/2013 also won her class and won Female Champion at the pre sale show. Sired by Cupid a French import out of Felin Cara, Infinity sold in calf to Andrew Powell of Knighton, Powys.

The top price bull Rigel Orton fetched 4500gns. Rigel Orton (born 11/4/2013); sired by Sagitaire a French import out of a homebred polled female Rigel Orinoco, combines beefy conformation with strong maternal traits (large pelvic area, strong growth rate, plenty of milk and good udders) from the dam line. Orton was champion in his class, Male Champion and Overall Show Champion. Rigel Orton is from the Rigel Pedigree Herd of Messrs Pye, Yarm, North Yorkshire he was bought by Steve & Carol Simmons, Devon.
