Heifer stirks were a lot better to sell this week with two nice BRB x from A Rooke selling to £665 and £610 both to mart supporter Harry Hogarth, bull stirks just a bit easier with a buyer or two full up for this week but Hereford x bulls sold to £520 from D A Boyes and blues sold to £450 from A Rooke.
