Selling is coming to a conclusion here at Ballymena in the Northern Irish National Texel sale, but there are still some good prices about, with Crawfordlands Tyson from David and James Boyd making 2000gns. This is a Beechvale Superior son out of a dam by Poseyhill Organgrinder.

Then at 1700gns was Blackstown Told U So from Jim Wilson. He is by Carmavy Striker and out of a dam by Fairywater Olympian.

A few lots earlier at 1800gns was Farmhill Terrific from Brian Williamson, with this one being a Cornerstone Royal Male Sid daughter out of a dam by Glenside Lion King.

And making 1000gns was Corbo Top Tup from Adrian Liggett. He’s a son of Mullan Playboy out of a dam by Waen Maradonna.

The reserve male champion from the pre-sale show, Derryvore  Terminator went unsold at 350gns.

And very late in the sale Paul O’Connor sold Drumgooland Tattoo for 4500gns. This is a Baltier Rascal son out of a Cowal ewe sired by Kelso Pavarotti and sold to Henry Gamble, Robert Kennedy, James Adams and Martin Cromlie.

Then 198 ram lambs sold averaged out at £728.37.
