A large crowd bid solidly for the 38 bulls offered at Woodbourn on Tuesday 17th April, at Cressy Tasmania. The total clearance, top of $11,500 and average of $5,986 was a very pleasing result for Woodbourn and the vendor Charles Wallace said it was very satisfactory for both the seller and the buyer to have the prices where they were. The sale moved strongly through the lots without losing momentum at any stage.

Woodbourn has long had the belief that if you are going to introduce a top sire to your herd and take the standard of your herd to another level, you must judge that animal carefully, not just with Breedplan figures but also visually. It is a policy which has stood Woodbourn in good stead with its progeny displaying the structural strength and correctness that Woodbourn has been striving for.
