Glenericht Verdi
听British Charolais Cattle Society breed secretary, James Hudson said: "The majority of buyers were from commercial herds. The high clearance rate and the increased number sold is a result of increased appetite for Charolais bulls, given the strong prices being achieved for Charolais sired suckled calves and store cattle."
The first bull to sell for 18,000gns was Glenericht Verdi, an April 2024-born son of Caylers Oxford out of the Caylers Gladiator daughter, Glenericht Ola from W.K. and P. Drysdale, Blairgowrie. The buyer was A.J. McLean, Isle of Tiree.
