Top priced animal Goulding N Missie who sold for €6,100.

The third Irish Aberdeen Angus Association premier show and sale took place on Saturday in Carrick-on-Shannon. Although there was a tough trade for most of the day, it proved highly successful for Kerry breeders Matthew and Rita Goulding who took home the top three prices.
Topping the sale and selling for €6,100 was the outfit’s oldest entry, Goulding N Missie. This two-year-old in-calf heifer is sired by Blelack Duke while the dam goes back to the famous DMM Miss Essence 22B. This heifer was earlier awarded the reserve female championship in pre-sale show.
Claiming the overall female championship was Goulding Belinda. This January 2018-born heifer comes with a proven track record having placed overall female championship at this year’s national calf show. This one hit the market at €4,300.

The Goulding’s last heifer, Pamela got on equally impressively securing a price tag of €4,500. This in-calf heifer was a daughter of Nightingale Proud Jake out of a Young Dale Touchdown bred-dam.
All three lots were secured by Northern Irish buyers.
