Compared to last week: Calf and feeder turn out was short with few comparable sales to set a trend. A lower undertone followed the quality of cattle. Thin fleshed, turn out type cattle remain in higher demand. Slaughter cattle turn out was good with average to high selling higher. Slaughter bulls also turned out with higher yielding bulls bringing over 1.80. Trade was moderate.
