Supply came back to 567 cattle, 315 less, in another yarding dominated by dairy cows.
Quality was from poor to plain over much of the offering, with just a few well covered beef cows and the odd finished yearlings that came forward.
A small field of buyers attended, but not all operated fully, however prices were slightly higher.
Cows sold on a dearer trend despite fluctuations in prices for the middle range of 1 and 2 score dairy cows.
The poor to plain quality young cattle overall averaged 10c/kg dearer.
The yarding comprised 90 young and grown cattle, 459 cows and 18 bulls.
There were no vealers penned this week, but the odd C muscled yearlings sold at 235c, 240c and 262c, with restockers paying 258c/kg.
The plain D1 and D2 yearlings received from 135c to 188c, with a restocker paying 232c/kg.
The poor to plain D and E muscled 1 scores were from 50c to 150c/kg. In the grown steer sale, only Friesian D2 steers came forward, with prices at 215c and 218c/kg.
The grown heifers saw D1s make from 165c to 179c and a D2 sold for 210c/kg.
The better covered 3 and 4 score beef cows made from 220c to 240c, as the D2 grade sold from 165c to 214c, while the D1 cows received from 145c to 185c/kg.
Most E1 cows made from 140c to 160c, while the poor quality sold from 78c to 120c/kg.
Dairy bulls received from 181c to 220c, with a very good C2 making 240c/kg.
