Kepculloch Summer Tops Autumn Sale


The October edition of the Border and Lakeland Holstein Club’s sale was a credit to all the breeders involved.

Kepculloch Artes Summer, consigned by Robert Steel and Son, led trade at 3200gns when she sold to Hamish Campbell, Auchenlane, Castle Douglas. Summer is by Go-Farm Artes and is backed by eight generations of dams classified Excellent or Very Good. Her third dam was the 95 pointed Rudolph that won the Royal Highland Show for the Steel family back in 2005 and her Excellent 92 grand dam, sired by Shottle, sold in the October 2012 sale for a top price of 4000gns.
