Compared to last Tuesday sale on a pair and back to grass special; slaughter cows unevenly steady with instance 2.00 lower, slaughter bulls 2.00-3.00 higher instances 9.00, with feeder cows going back to grass or feed good demand with good buyer participation. Heifer pairs reputation quality higher again this week. Demand good to moderate with more thin cows and bulls coming to market.
