Staged by the Killaney herd owned by John and Sandra Blackburn, the auction has been prompted by the prefix celebrating their 75th anniversary which is a significant milestone. The Blackburns have reached right into the best cow families at Killaney and are offering females from the heart of the herd including descendents of Janella of Saunders Grove who produced the much admired Lady Elizabeth line. The sale features a number of cows with calves at foot, to include Killaney Pride P005, who is accompanied with her superb red bull calf at foot Killaney Red Prince B341.

A super run of maiden heifers will also go under the hammer including Killaney Lady Elizabeth A072, who was a multi award winner in the 2024 show circuit.
