SIMMENTALS

Strathisla Punk  

Lot 214 

Sire: Dirnanean Grafter, Dam: Strathisla Ivy’s Jasmine. 

One of the last bulls by Grafter for sale and we think he is probably the best one. A dark red bull with length, shape and great on his legs. A good set of figures with the unusual combination of high muscle area and good fat cover.

Strathisla Panther 

Lot 217 

Sire: Denizes Logic, Dam: Strathisla Ice Queen’s Haka. 

This is the first son of Denizes Logic (cover shot image) to be offered for public sale. He is dark red with exceptional width and again has the unusual combination of high muscle area and good fat cover. Logic has been used extensively on heifers and has proved to be easily calved.

 

Strathisla Pickles 

Lot 235 

Sire: Dirnanean Grafter, Dam: Strathisla Fudge’s Harriet. 

This is the last Grafter son for sale. He has tremendous width and is good on his legs with a great top. Fudge’s Harriet is a consistent breeder and is the oldest cow in the herd.

Strathisla Paramount 

Lot 248

Sire: Denizes Logic, Dam: Strathisla Jadore’s Haka. 

Another Denizes Logic son with a huge amount of potential. His dam is a Grafter daughter and crossed with Logic is proving to be the best cross – the same cross as Pentagon who won his class at the RHS and was sold privately to The Barlow family. Paramount has a full brother who is a similar type and of the same standard. Paramount has a huge set of figures.

Strathisla Panama 

Lot 252

Sire: Denizes Logic, Dam: Strathisla Gigi’s Haka

Another Denizes Logic with great potential. He is a long bull with great legs and top with huge milk figures that is sure to breed tremendous replacements.

Strathisla Pathfinder 

Lot 253

Sire: Denizes Logic, Dam: Strathisla Fiona’s Haka. 

This is a red Logic son from the same dam line as Paramount and a bull that will be forward in February. A bull with a good set of figures who is incredibly correct and well put together.

Strathisla Pharaoh 

Lot 263 

Sire: Denizes Logic, Dam: Strathisla Lavender’s Haka. 

Another Denizes Logic with huge potential. Pharaoh has been much admired at home by visitors – a bull with tremendous length, width and great on his legs.  He has a huge set of figures some of the biggest in the catalogue and we have always thought a lot of this bull from birth.

CHAROLAIS 

Cardean Usher 

Lot 520 

Sire: Octopus, Dam: Cardean Rainbow. 

Octopus is a new French sire to the UK. We have purchased semen for use on heifers and he has proved to be very easily calved. Rainbow is by Goldies Noelle who bred very well. Her dam, Larch, is one of the mainstays of the herd. Usher is exceptionally wide and easily fleshed with a great set of figures and +5.5 for calving ease.

Cardean Uncle 

Lot 569

Sire: Newlogie Ringmaster, Dam: Cardean Oona. This is the first son of the privately purchased Ringmaster to be offered for sale. He is breeding consistently for us and Uncle was admired by many as a calf and has continued to do well. Ringmaster has again been used heavily on heifers proving to be easily calved leaving calves with growth and length. Uncle is +7.1 for calving ease.
