00:00So we topped out at $462 with the Craig Simpsons ewe lambs, kind of, yeah, 92 of those.
00:07$462, so it is a national record.
00:09Look, the Simpsons always present their ewe lambs very, very well here at Mount Pleasant.
00:14Been renowned for doing that for a very long time.
00:17They've got exceptional length in their sheep, and they always present really, really well.
00:21They come from Baleigh North, sort of up Janestown Way, so they come in with a bit of a tip
00:26on them as well,
00:26but always wholly sought after, and to the point we'll be free to national record today, so fantastic results.
00:32Ewe hoggets, ewe lambs, everything right the way through, the weather lambs really presented well,
00:35and it made a fantastic day and a great return for a lot of the vendors.
00:39Our top line of first cross ewe hoggets, they topped out at $515,
00:44which I believe is a record for our sourdough yard here at Mount Pleasant.
00:47Overall, a really good result here. The sheep presented themselves very well.
00:51Bias should be very happy for the quality they had on offer,
00:53and a big credit for the vendors on what they presented today.
