Hogget ram best in show at €460
The top price ram was exhibited by Michael Maher of Monivea. The general run of prices for hogget rams ranged €300 to €400.
The show and sale proved to be a very successful day for Clareman Joe Casey, from Ballyvaughan, who scored a double in the championship showing both overall champion hogget ram and reserve in addition to collecting class awards and showing the winning pen of five ewe hoggets which sold to Hugh Reilly, Dromard, Co Sligo, for a record price of €225. Tommy Sice, Athenry, received €150 for his second-prize winners and all the other hoggets made over €105.
