THURSDAY 7th JUNE 2018
Trade was firm today in Ennis for all good quality types on offer although numbers were much smaller. Light stores sold well for good sorts but more forward stores over 500kg sold extremely well, heavier bullocks over 600kg also an excellent trade. Both farmers and agents very active around the bullock ring. Heifer trade was steady for better quality heavy types, but quality on offer was mixed. A smaller entry of feeder cows and beef cows met a strong demand with trade similar to previous week. Aged bulls sold to a top price of €1,690 for a LM bull weighting 700kgs.
