Buyers need to continue to register to attend the two-day event from Scotland’s leading livestock auctioneers.
Judging will take place on the Sunday for the Charolais, Simmental, Salers, Beef Shorthorn and Aberdeen Angus bulls while the Limousin pre-sale show of bulls will be held on the Monday morning. All sales will take place on Monday.
For those who are not able to attend in person, an online bidding facility will be available for which all buyers must pre-register via www.uagroup.co.uk/ sale-attendance and complete the‘know Your Customer’checks at least 24 hours before the sales take place. They can also be viewed online.
