The Orman family are very pleased to extend an invitation to you to attend our 6th annual Benelkay Poll Santa Gertrudis Bull Sale on Wednesday the 6th of September, 2017 at 1.00pm on property “Glenmore” Mullaley.

We have all enjoyed a very strong twelve months in the commercial cattle industry, and I feel that will turn into a strong decade within the industry. New innovations in the marketing of beef domestically as well as internationally and an increasingly strong push by government agricultural departments to take protein to the world, places us well for the next few years.

We are very excited to present to you our line-up of mostly Poll Santa Gertrudis bulls, responding to clients who, for a range of reasons need to be able to purchase poll bulls to suit their operations. This year’s sale line-up has 23 Homozygous (PP) sires, and I feel very confident with the overall quality and evenness of the sale team. We have also included three of our best horned bulls, sired by poll bulls out of poll cows, but have thrown back to the horned side of their breeding. They have been sold as paddock bulls previously but the decision to include them was made last year, resulting in our top priced bull in 2016, as they are exceptional bulls full of poll genetics themselves and we feel there is a place for the better horned bulls to also be included in the sale team.

We are able to offer a range of types of bulls to suit different market requirements and realize not all bull buyers are looking for exactly the same type of bull for their operation. The Orman family have made considerable investments in poll sires in the past forty years to produce seed stock bulls to suit both the commercial and stud sectors. We have started using our own Homozygous Sires to increase this trait within our own female stud herd, with very pleasing results.

Again this year’s draft will contain sons from our proven top sires. Bullamakinka H82 (P), Sujo Firstclass (P) Bullamakinka Dreamtime (P), Warenda Furlong (P) Benelkay Kluger (P) and Eidsvold Station Gavin G2 (P). New genetics this season come from exciting new first year release sires. Benelkay Hot Shot (PP), MaCaire Hallmark (P), Benelkay Halfback (PP), Benelkay Handsome (PP) and Benelkay Gyral (P)

All bulls will have BreedPlan figures to assist you in the selection of the sire to suit your breeding objectives. As well as raw data figures for weight, DWG, scans for EMA and Fats. All bulls are semen/morphology and vet tested by Mark Baker, Gunnedah Saleyards Veterinary Clinic. Our aim is to provide paddock reared fit and healthy bulls, so cattlemen can be confident in their bull purchases. You can view pictures of the sale draft at www.benelkaysantas.com.au, or contact Andrew 0427 435 201 directly for more information or to arrange inspections presale if you feel that it will assist you.

Andrew, Jules, Sam & Georgie Orman

Health - Vaccinations

7 in 1 Vaccinations 12.02.2017 and 17.07.2017.

Vibro Vaccinations 28.02.2016, 22.09.2016, 12.02.2017 all sale bulls have only received one shot this year and should receive a booster to fall into your own breeding program.

Multimin 12.02.2017 and 17.06.2017

Benelkay stud is located in a Bovine Johne’s disease protected clean area. There have never been any traces of this disease detected at our stud’s properties. We have completed a Grazing Manual Biosecurity Template, version 1.1 before the 30/06/2017.There has been veterinary oversight into the development of our biosecurity plan, as we aim to remain a J-BAS 7 score.

Treatments

All bulls have been treated on the 12.02.17 with Ivomec pour on 17.07.16 with Verbamec pour on.

Feeding

The Sale Bulls have been running together in one mob on native pasture since, 01/09/2016. The bulls have been running in two separate mobs on oat crops since 01.07.2017 and have also had access to a self feeder with a mixture of barley stubble, oaten hay and 40% cracked barley mixed together with a Keenan mixer, due to prevailing drought conditions. The bull’s preparation this year has been light. As weaners they were not supplemented at all with feeds, they have only had paddock feed. Only the good bulls with strong constitutions prevailed.

Handling

All bulls are handled with four wheel motorbikes and dogs. Our bulls have never been handled with horses.

Semen / Morphology Tests

All bulls have been evaluated for breeding soundness (semen and morphology tested and vet tested) by Mark Baker, BVSc & Associates of Gunnedah Saleyards Veterinary Clinic. Testing was done over two days 26.07.2017 and 27.07.2017. Individual results will be available prior to and on sale day.

All bulls were also morphology tested at Goondiwindi Laboratories. Please ask Andrew for results.

Scanning

All bulls have been scanned for EMA, Fat (Rib, Rump, IMF%) and Scrotal Size Measurements, by Bovine Scanning Services (Lonnie Stone). This will be carried out in mid August 2017.

Inspections

Inspections are welcomed anytime. Bulls will be yarded by 9.00am on Sale day. Pre-sale day inspections can be arranged by contacting Andrew Orman on 0427435201 or 02 67435201, or through Elders Gunnedah.

The EBVs contained within this catalogue can be validly compared with other Santa Gertrudis GROUP BREEDPLAN EBVs. These EBVs can not be used to compare animals of another breed.

Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs)An animal’s breeding value is its genetic merit, half of which will be passed on to its progeny. While we will never know the exact breeding value, for performance traits it is possible to make good estimates. These are called Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs). The EBV is therefore the best estimate of an animal’s genetic merit for that trait. EBVs are expressed as the difference between an individual animal’s genetics and the genetic base to which the animal is compared.

Birth• Gestation length: The GL EBV (days) is based

on AI records. Lower (negative) GL EBVs indicate shorter gestation length and generally easier calving.

• Birth Weight: The Birth Weight EBV (kg) is based on the measured birth weight of animals, adjusted for dam age. The lower the value the lighter the calf at birth and the lower the likelihood of a difficult birth occurring. This is particularly important when selecting sires for use over heifers.

Fertility• Scrotal Size: The SS EBV (cm) is an indicator

of male fertility in regards to semen quality and quantity. Scrotal circumference measurements are taken between 300 and 700 days and adjusted to 400 days of age. Higher (positive) EBVs indicate higher fertility. SS is also positively associated with female fertility.

• Day to Calving: The DTC EBV (days) is an indicator of female fertility based on the time between a cows first exposure to a bull and

when she subsequently calved. Cows that calve late in the season or fail to calve are penalised. Lower (negative) EBVs are preferred indicating shorter days to calving for the sire’s daughters.

Growth• Milk: 200-Day Milk EBV (kg) is an estimate of

an animal’s milking ability. For sires, this EBV is indicative of their daughter’s milking ability as it affects the 200-day weight of their calves.

• 200-Day Growth: The 200-Day EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of animals taken between 80 and 300 days of age. Values are adjusted to 200 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal’s genetic merit for growth to early ages.

• 400-Day Weight: The 400-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 301 and 500 days of age, adjusted to 400 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal’s genetic merit for yearling weight.

• 600-Day Weight: The 600-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 501 and 900 days of age, adjusted to 600 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal’s genetic merit for growth beyond yearling age.

• Mature Cow Weight: The Mature Cow Weight EBV (kg) is an estimate of the genetic difference in cow weight at 5 years of age. Lower or more moderate EBVs are generally more favourable.

Carcase• Carcase Weight: The Carcase Weight EBV (kg)

estimates the genetic difference in carcase weight at a standard age of 650 days.

• Eye Muscle area: The EMA EBV (cm2) estimates genetic differences in eye muscle area at the 12/13th rib site of a 300kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate better muscling.

EBVs Explained

Page 7

• Rib Fat: The Rib Fat EBV (mm) estimates the genetic differences in fat depth at the 12/13th rib in a 300kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate more subcutaneous fat and earlier maturity.

• Rump Fat: The Rump Fat EBV (mm) estimates the genetic differences in fat depth at the P8 site of a 300kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate more subcutaneous fat and earlier maturity.

• Retail Beef Yield Percent: The RBY% EBV (%) represents total (boned out) meat yield as a percentage of a 300kg dressed carcase. A more positive EBV indicates higher percentage yield for the 300kg carcase size.

• Intramuscular Fat Percent: The IMF% EBV (%) is an estimate of the genetic difference in the percentage of intra-muscular fat at the 12/13th rib site in a 300kg carcase. Depending on market targets, larger more positive values are generally more favourable.

AccuracyAn accuracy value is presented with every EBV and gives an indication of the amount of information that has been used in the calculation of that EBV. The higher the accuracy, the lower the likelihood of change in the animal’s EBV as more information is analysed for that animal or its relatives.

accuracy Range Interpretation

Less than 50% The EBVs are preliminary. EBVs in this range will have been calculated based on very little information. These EBVs could change substantially as more direct performance information becomes available on the animal

50 - 74% The EBVs are of medium accuracy. EBVs in this range will usually have been calculated based on the animal’s own performance and some limited pedigree information.

75 – 90% The EBVs are of medium-high accuracy. EBVs in this range will usually have been calculated based on the animal’s own performance coupled with the performance for a small number of the animal’s progeny.

90% and above The EBVs are a high accuracy estimate of the animal’s true breeding value. It is unlikely that EBVs will change considerably with addition of more progeny data.

Although the accuracy of an EBV should be considered, animals should be compared on EBVs regardless of accuracy. Where two animals have the same EBV however, the animal with the higher accuracy would normally be used more heavily than the bull with the lower accuracy because the results can be predicted with more confidence

Disclaimer: The Santa GROUP BREEDPLAN Estimated Breeding Values contained in this Sale Catalogue were compiled by the Agricultural Business Research Institute (ABRI) from data supplied by the breeder.

Neither Santa Gertrudis Association nor the ABRI oversee or audit the collection of the data.

Selection Index Values The Selection Index value for an animal is effectively an EBV of the animal’s profitability for a defined commercial production system and market end-point. Ranking bulls on their Selection Index value sorts them based on their progeny’s expected differences in profitability for the targeted production system.

As a guide to using Selection Indexes, it is recommended that producers complete the following steps:

i. Identify the Selection Index of most relevance to your production system

ii. Rank animals on the Selection Index

iii. Consider the individual EBVs of importance

iv. Consider other traits of importance that may not be accounted for in the selection index (eg. temperament, structural soundness)

There are currently two different selection indexes calculated for Santa Gertrudis association animals. Each Selection Index describes a specific production system and market scenario as described below:

Domestic Production Index - Estimates the genetic differences between animals in net profitability per cow joined for an example self-replacing commercial herd (run in a temperate environment) producing steers for the domestic trade. This Index assumes that the steer progeny are pasture grown and finished and marketed at 500 kg live weight (280 kg HSCW and 12 mm P8 fat depth) at 16 months of age. Daughters are retained for breeding

Export Production Index - Estimates the genetic differences between animals in net profitability per cow joined for an example commercial herd (run in a sub-tropical environment) producing steers for the export trade. This Index assumes that the steer progeny are pasture grown and finished and are marketed at 620 kg live weight (340 kg HSCW and 15 mm P8 fat depth) at 28 months of age. Daughters are retained for breeding.

All selection indexes are reported as an EBV, in units of relative earning capacity ($) for a given production/market scenario. They reflect the short term profit generated by a sire through the sale of his progeny.

The Australian Poll Gene Marker test was initially developed by the Beef CRC and released to industry in 2010. The initial test was based on a single DNA marker and worked very well in some breeds, but not so well in others.

The test was further developed by the CSIRO, with funding assistance from Meat and Livestock Australia, and a greatly improved test was released in 2013. The improved Australian Poll Gene Marker test uses the same marker as the initial test but also incorporates information from nine other markers close by in the genome. The genotype information from all ten markers is combined to create a ‘haplotype’ to more accurately track the origin of alleles and associate them with being horned or polled. The additional marker information increases the proportion of animals for which the test returns an informative result, and also increases the accuracy of those results.

Breeders who are able to apply a level of selection pressure to their cow herd can also use the same philosophies that have been outlined for bulls. Retaining only polled or scurred females will increase the frequency of polled genes within the herd, while giving priority to polled females that have been identified by DNA test as being homozygous polled will maximise the rate of polled gene introgression into the herd.

Importantly, breeding for polledness should always be balanced with selection for other traits of economic and functional importance within the breeding objective. Simply selecting for polledness without any consideration of other important traits is not recommended as it may potentially compromise the genetics of animals for these other traits.

An example of the test result is displayed above right.The results will describe the percentage chance of the most likely genotype, with the possible genotypes being reported including homozygous polled (PP), heterozygous polled (Ph)

or homozygous horned (hh). The accuracy of the test result will be reported alongside the most likely genotype. This accuracy will range from 90% to 99%. For animals where the test cannot return an informative result (that is, the accuracy of the prediction is less than 90%) the result will be returned as ND (Not Determined).

For further assistance in understanding the genetics of polledness, or the use of the Australian Poll Gene Marker test, contact staff at Southern Beef Technology Services (SBTS) or Tropical Beef Technology Services (TBTS).

looking after your new bull We have put a lot into getting your purchase ready with breeding and management and now it is up to you to continue to prepare your considerable investment for the future.

The following are a few tips:• At auction sales, remember that possession is

yours after the fall of the hammer.

• We recommend that you insure your bull - it is a new asset to your property.

• Pen bulls on the truck from different vendors / properties separately.

• Handle him quietly at all times, no buzzers have been used on these bulls.

• Have some cattle in the yard for company to run him with for a week or so to get acquainted to your property. All will be strange to him as he has been taken from his mates and even the water and feed will be different as well as your environment.

• Check the health treatments he has had and that they are appropriate to your area and treat with anything additional you think he might need after he has settled in.

• At joining it is preferable not to mate young bulls multiply with older sires, as they will not allow the young bulls near the cows and they could get injured.

• Try and get him to his selected group of cows preferably in a group with other cattle or bring the group to him.

• Check him regularly, seeing he is walking well, no swelling of joints or in his sheath, if possible that he is serving and that not too many cows are returning to heat.

• If you suspect any problems occurring quick action may cure a problem before it escalates.

• Have a spare bull or bulls available to cover

any break downs, do not give the young bull increased numbers of females to cover other breakdowns within the herd. Also young heifers may be in heat for less time than cows and you will need more bulls to cover them.

• After the joining remove him and give him any health treatments such as for internal and external parasites and any vaccinations appropriate to your conditions.

• Give him every chance to grow out and develop after his first joining as your Santa bull will continue to grow and be cutting teeth, for at least a further twelve months.

• Annual pre joining vet examination will help with your next joining results.

• Bulls are a large investment for any breeding herd and they have a major effect on herd fertility. A little time and attention to detail to make sure they are fit, free from disease and actively working is well worthwhile and can deliver huge results to our agricultural businesses.

If you have any queries or problems please contact us as soon as you can so that we can assist you.

Joint Breedng ObjectivesOur breeding objective is to produce structurally correct moderate framed Polled Santas, balanced in fertility traits, weight traits, muscling and fat. Always mindful of maintaining an easy doing functionally efficient and fertile herd, with a broad genetic base to meet the current market needs of our clients and to improve the profit in their operations.

To achieve our objectives we employ the following strategies:

Fertility• We don’t pamper the stud cow herd; they are

run on a commercial basis, in conjunction with cropping. This strategy indicates the cattle that will perform especially for fertility and gives clients confidence that the sires they purchase will perform in any climate.

• Semen and morphology test bulls and use as high a quality tested bull that meets our breeding objectives.

• Maintain soft fine haired cattle. These perform better in our climate and are more fertile.

• Select for cattle with above breed average fat. Fat is important for carcass coverage (MSA), doing ability leading into better fertility.

• Keep a balance between milk and fertility traits.

• Identify sires that have excessive birth weights.

• Select for cattle with tidier sheaths. This gives us much better fertility in both bulls and females also complying better with the MSA requirements.

Maturity/Meat Quality• Select for moderate framed cattle with above

breed average young growth.

• Select cattle that are able to perform well in a range of markets for clients.

• Our style of Santa Gertrudis cattle are able to target the vealer market, the feed lot and all the way through to the bullock trade.

• Select for quiet temperament for handling and meat quality issues.

• Informed decisions• All cattle are performance recorded for as many

traits as we can manage, keeping in mind commercial considerations. E.g. we don’t scrotal score all male calves as we castrate most of our horned and culls before weaning.

• Performance data is used in mating decisions to produce balanced progeny.

Stud Profile

History:

In 1963 the Benelkay herd had its beginnings situated west of Walgett as a cross breeding operation, started by Andrew’s parents Dick and Dianne Orman. The cow herd was based on Weebollabolla Shorthorn cows and Santa Gertrudis Bulls, mostly of Wave Hill, Gyranda, Ameroo, Kalinga, Pampoola, Marengo, Murrumbo and Yarrawonga bloodlines. In 1970 the Benelkay stud was registered with the SGB(A)A and became Stud number 810 . With the select purchases of stud cows and the existing commercial line of straight Santa Gertrudis cows, the stud had a good genetic base to form the early stud and grow it into what it is today.

Today the Benelkay Santa Gertrudis Stud is run on “Glenmore” and Tuppence”, located 34km North West of Mullaley, in the Goolhi district, or 68km West of Gunnedah. “Glenmore” is a 1650 Ha property comprising of gently undulating to hilly country with a mixture of heavy black basalt, red clay loams and sandy soil types.” Tuppence” is a 730 Ha property situated next to Glenmore, and was originally part of the historic Goolhi Station, that once covered most of the North Western side of Mullaley. Tuppence is the location of the new Benelkay Sale Complex that was built for our second annual sale. The stud has become our passion some say obsession, and something that we enjoy as a family with our two children Sam and Georgie helping and being involved when they can.

Stud Focus:

With a strong genetic base of 400 classified stud cows. Benelkay is well placed to breed cattle to suit the modern day commercial cattleman. With a strong emphasis on poll cattle that have the ability to enhance the carcase traits in the stud and commercial cattle industry. We have selected and used only poll sires for over thirty years giving us a large genetic poll base to draw from. This year’s sale team well have twenty three Homozygous (PP) bulls presented which gives the industry an opportunity to be able to purchase

sires to fast track their own herds towards poll genetics. The Benelkay stud is run on a commercial basis with no favouritism. With years of work going into the fertility, temperament and the need to breed cattle that are soft, easy doing and are saleable all year round we have found this style of cattle can compete with and better other breeds, but still retain the excellent attributes of the Santa Gertrudis Breed. We have found over time that moderate cows have the best fertility and we can move a little each way with size to suit the needs of most beef markets. Our entire herd is performance recorded, all stud and commercial cows with Santa Gertrudis Group Breedplan. We find Breedplan, a useful tool in our herd selection, as well as using visual assessment. Both tools enable us to make fast gains in the desired traits we believe our herd needs to be achieving.

Sires in the past years that have had a large impact on our stud’s direction, have been, Sanford Vale Juggler (P). His son’s Fonz (P) and Fireball (P), Wave Hill F73 (P) and Wave Hill Napperby (P). SuJo First Class (P) has proved to be a wonderful sire, taking the stud forward in the direction, we believe the industry needed to be heading. His progeny have had a huge impact within the stud and I think we will benefit from his bloodlines for many years to come. This year Bullamakinka Dreamtime (P) will present his sixth draft of sale bulls. He has shown his ability to breed quality stock, and has become a leading sire within the stud. One of his son’s Benelkay Futurama (P) has had a herd changing effect within the Tookey Creek Stud. Bullamakinka H82 (PS) has proven his worth in the stud with 16 bulls in the 2016 Bull Sale draft averaging $8,500 and toping at $18,000. We are trying to introduce some more rib and rump fat into our breeding herd and felt we could do this with H82. He stands in the top 1% of the breed for his rib and rump fat figures and has been able to pass this on without losing any growth and scale in his progeny.

Every year we try to bring new genetics into the sale for our clients. This year we have used five first year release sires. With a conscious decision to use our own top end Homozygous Poll bulls as we have found it very hard to purchase them outside our own stud. MaCaire Hallmark (P), Benelkay Hot Shot (PP), Benelkay Halfback (PP), Benelkay Handsome (PP), and Benelkay Gyral (P). Out of these Benelkay Hot Shot (PP) and MaCaire Hallmark (P) have really impressed us with the consistent quality numbers of cattle they are both producing.

BULLAMAKINKA H82 (PS) H82 (PS) was one of the standout bulls sold in the Bullamakinka sale draft in 2013. He impressed us with his sire appeal, high bos-indicus content, fine dark tropical skin, poll genetics, frame and softness. We had been waiting for a quality poll sire by

Canowindra Gold Edition, and as an extra he was from a very well bred 770 cow line. Gold Edition has been a standout sire in the Santa Breed and has produced many sale topping bulls, producing over 400 registered calves by natural service. H82’s dam Kelly Wallah X77 (P), has produced consistently and at 13 yrs has produced 11 calves, including five sale bulls. She is a granddaughter of the consistent Kelly Wallah 770 (P) cow line. 770 had 13 calves with many going on to breed well within other studs. H82 (PS) is stamping his quality and style in his progeny, quickly becoming one of our leading sires. He was the sire of 16 lots in the 2016 Bull Sale with a top of $18,000 and an average of $8,500. Benelkay Kalahari sold to Andrew and Anglea Doering “Spring Creek” Santa Gertrudis Stud, for $18,000 closely fol-lowed by Benelkay Kruzer (P) selling for $17,000 to Nugget Carter “Birrimba” Santa Gertrudis Stud.

BULLAMAKINKA DREAMTIME D62 (P) Dreamtime was purchased for the top price of $20,000 at the 2009 Wandoan Sale. At 21 months he weighed 932 kgs, had an EMA of 132 cms, scrotal of 42 cms and was sired by Swan Hill Morley. He has grown into a massive mature sire weighing around 1300kgs in paddock condition. We purchased him as a sire, for his out cross genetics, his extreme growth and weight for age. He has crossed extremely well with the First Class (P) cows and his progeny are large framed, well muscled, quiet natured with plenty of breed character. Twenty five sons have averaged $7,920, with a top of $26,000 in 2012 for Benelkay Futurama (P), selling to “Tookey Creek and Jarrah Park” Studs. Benelkay Genset (P) topped the 2013 sale at $18,000 as well as Benelkay Grunt (P) for $10,000, both going to Moreton and Frances Rolfe’s,

BENELKAY KLUGER 1380 (P)A son of First Class (P), he is a soft eye appealing, well balanced poll bull with good breed type, who is very sound in structure. He has early maturity, a trim underline, and is a well muscled bull with a terrific doing ability. Kluger

is breeding very true to type and his progeny are very consistent and this is no surprise when you look at his breeding. He is out of a Wave Hill Napperby (P) by the well credentialed sire First Class (P). Both lines are very strong breeding lines within the stud’s cow herd. We believe him to be a homozygous poll bull as all his progeny are poll. Top 10% for his rib / rump fat EBVs with moderate growth, allowing his son’s to make ideal heifer bulls as their calves will be small, but then grow on and have strong finishing ability. He is breeding great commercial style cattle for Northern NSW.

WARENDA FURLONG F4 (P) A quiet achiever in our herd, purchased at the 2012 Santa Central Sale. Furlong was selected to pick up the Warenda Mexico (P) bloodlines that have been very successful for Warenda. He has matured into a very impressive sire, carries a dark red skin type and is a well balanced bull with a very tidy underline plus a wonderful quiet temperament which he is passing on to his progeny. Furlong’s dam has had nine calves with five classifying, her top son sold for $42,000. Grand dam, Warenda Jemma was a suc-cessful show heifer/cow. Eight calves with six clas-sifying, with four daughters retained in the Warenda stud herd.

EIDSVOLD STATION GAVIN G2 (P)Purchased at the 2012 Eidsvold Station / Greenup Bull Sale, he was the equal top priced bull of the sale at $15,000. A robust athletic bull with a remarkable constitution, clean tropical coat type, fine skinned with a tidy underline combined with exceptional fertility. The heifers are producing consistently for us within the stud and his sons have averaged $6,875 in the last two sales, with a top of $8,500 for Benelkay Karachi (P) selling to Messines Pastoral Co.

Kluger (P) sold to G.A Greenup & Co “Rosevale” Stud for $17,500. 2010 Lifeline (P) sold to G.A Greenup & Co “Rosevale” Stud for $26,000. 2011 Eragon (P) sold to Morton and Frances Rolf, “Hardigreen Park” Stud, for $32,000. 2012 Firestone (P) sold to Rick and Alice Greenup, “Greenup/ Eidsvold Station” Studs, Cardowan for $34,000. 2015 Jumbo Jim (PP) sold to Yugilbar for $13,000. His females are breeding at a very high level, and are crossing well with Bullam-akinka Dreamtime (P), producing Futurama (P) selling to “Tookey Creek” Stud for $26,000, a Dreamtime/First Class cross. First Class (P) has sired well over 400 registered calves as well as many commercial calves and as a result we have many happy clients using his genetics. A very large percentage of our cow herd carry his genetics.

BENELKAY HOT SHOT H074 (P)We retained this standout Sire from our 2012 year drop of bulls for his all round performance, which is backed up by his EBVs, Top 5% and Trait Leader for his 200,400,600 Day Growth and Mature Cow Weight,

Carcass Weight and EMA. Hot Shot is a Homozygous Poll (PP) which made him more appealing, to use in our stud herd. With a 96% morphology test as a two year old, we felt that we could not afford to sell a bull of his calibre.He carries strong Sire appeal and breed phenotype, a soft dark tropical skin / hair type, with length, depth and bone. Hot Shot combines some of the best bloodlines within our herd and is out of a very strong reliable female line of cows that have been consistently above average breeders going back at least six generations down the cow line.He is prolific worker out in the cow herd, and is throwing very well balanced heifers and bulls, that we feel will suit the breeding requirements of our clients. There will be a strong representation of his sons in the 2017 sale team.

Over all a very correct bull with plenty of growth, a perfect sheath, and a tropical skin type, with safe genetics to back him up. Dapto (P) has proven to be a more maternal sire producing many outstanding females, and has proven to be an exceptional worker in the paddock. His heifers are outstandingly fertile, and the cows developing into good solid breeders. They carry a very high tropical content, early sexual maturity and have crossed very well with the majority of our blood lines. Twelve sons have sold at auction for an average of $4,850 with a top of $8,500 in 2016 selling to James Wippel “Romean”.

MACAIRE HALLMARK H037 (P)Hallmark H37 (P), was purchased at the 2015 Santa Central Sale as a very young led bull. He was se-lected for his eye appeal, perfect quiet temperament, deep dark red skin type and he was an out cross from any breeding that is in our herd. He carries a lot of Big Sir bloodlines; these lines carry strong poll breeding and have bred well over the years for many studs.He has developed into a quality sire, he is heavy boned, moderate framed with a mid maturity pattern well muscled and he is throwing consistent quiet, dark skinned quality sons and daughters. He seems to be crossing well with the majority of our blood lines, with a good number of sons and daughters retained.His first sons will only be young in the 2017 bull sale

BENELKAY HALFBACK H076 (P)Halfback was retained to be used in the stud as he is a Homozygous Poll (PP), with strong breed charac-ter, carrying a dark fine skin / hair type, a trait we are trying to increase through our herd. He has an

outstanding doing ability, is a very thick set heav-ily muscled Sire that retains softness. He displays strong commercial carcase attributes that again are displayed in his strong EBVs, being in the top 5% for his 200,400,600 Day Growth and Mature Cow figures. His Juggler (P) Dam 512 (P), pedigree goes back to Elgin Downs A25 and she has had ten consecutive calves in a row, through some very trying seasons. So fertility was also a consideration for his use. His progeny have been very pleasing with a good number being in the 2018 weaner mob, and a limited number of very young bulls in the 2017 sale.

BENELKAY HANDSOME H042 (P)We retained and used Handsome in the stud as a heif-er bull with very pleasing results. He is a Homozygous (PP), a heifer’s calf, very soft eye catching bull that has a sire’s presence. Fine tropical skin type, exceptionally light sheath, high fertility and is a very free moving style of bull similar to his sire Dapto (PS). His pedigree goes back to strong Sujo Firstclass (P) and Kelly Wallah poll blood lines on his dam’s side. A bull that has bred well above himself and I would recommend that his bulls would make ideal heifer bulls that could be used with a lot of confidence.
