Canadian National Convention Sale
Last night’s Canadian National Holstein Convention Sale resulted in an unofficial average of $10,400. Held in London, Ontario, the sale was co-managed by Hanover Hill Sales & Service (Barclay Phoenix) and Brubacher Sales (the Walker family). Topping the sale at $87,000 was Allyndale-I Goldwyn Avery, a 3/01/07 Goldwyn from Md-Delight Durham Atlee-ET (EX-92, DOM), the All-American Sr. 3-Year-Old from Storm Amberlee and then Chief Adeen. Consigned by Velthuis Farms Ltd., Ontario, the yearling was purchased by the Polikowski Family of Minnesota. The second high seller was Whittier-CF Gold Lila-ET, a 9/13/07 Goldwyn from Calbrett Shottle Laura (VG-87) and then Lylehaven Lila Z (VG-89), the two-time All-Canadian. Consigned by Todd Whittier and Cybil Fisher of Massachusetts, the heifer was purchased by Velthuis Farms Ltd. of Ontario and Bert Bruin of Chartroise Holsteins, Ohio, for $65,000. Look for photos later this week from World staffer Frank Putman, who will also be sending in Ontario Spring Show reports today as they happen!
