Numbers falling back a bit on the week but still almost 800 on offer. Trade stickier especially in the bulls, with the exception of some top quality lots holding the trade. Runner heifers topped out at €800 and bulls at €1,000. The heifer trade was a shade sharper with a few more customers available in this ring. More calves available today with a dozen on offer and a good trade with a BBX bull calf a month old making €450. Pairs in the suckler ring made to €1,800. A boat for the lesser lots in the bull ring would be welcomed at the moment.
