Urban Angus 10th sale records full clearance as top hits $24,000 and average climbs to $13,818
Summary
Repeat and new clients competed strongly for sires at the 10th on-property Urban Angus sale at Wallarobba on July 25, delivering a full clearance of all 33 bulls. The offering sold to a $24,000 top and a $13,818 average, both up on the 2025 result. The top-priced bull, Urban Viking V80, was secured for $24,000 by a Wallarobba pastoral operation. A 23-month-old son of Millah Murrah Stormtrooper S334 out of Urban Mittagong R49, he weighed 830 kilograms and carried estimated breeding values including a carcase weight of +88 and 200-day and 400-day weights of +61 and +118. The buyer, a five-year client, said he had been chasing thickness, structural soundness and overall functionality, and plans to join the bull to cows and calves to lift weaner quality for the local butcher and fat markets. The second top-priced bull, Urban Pacific V26, made $22,000 to an Allworth agribusiness. A 24-month-old son of Stirling Pacific 904 out of Wattletop Barunag N77, he weighed 866 kilograms with a +73 carcase weight and 200-day and 400-day weights of +65 and +111. That repeat buyer targeted moderate birth weight, strong growth and high weight-for-age, aiming to breed replacement heifers and heavy steers, with weaners above 300 kilograms suited to the weaner market. Volume buyer Hampshire Station, through a Singleton livestock agency, took three bulls to a $20,000 top and a $16,000 average, destined for a 1200- to 1500-cow herd. The vendor reported strong support from long-term and first-time clients across the draft.
