As filed

Compared to the last sale three weeks ago, the majority of steers sold 3.00-8.00 higher, except for the 600-650 lb weight range selling mostly steady. Heifers sold steady to 3.00 higher except for the 500-600 lbs weight range selling 5.00-7.00 higher. Trade was active and demand was good with a few extra buyers in the seats following the long break. Supply was moderate to heavy with some really nice drying weather to move cattle. Slaughter cows and bulls sold with a firm to higher undertone when compared to a light test from three weeks ago.
