TOP PRICED HEIFER
Coose Roisin P €15500.
The 2024 October Simmental Premier Sale saw the demand for quality heifers continue to
increase while customers were very selective when if came to purchasing bulls.
Once again, the Coose Team of John & Ronan Tuohy topped the trading with their weanling heifer
Coose Roisin P. Selling at €15,500 when auctioneer Denis Barrett closed the sale, this October
2023 born heifer was sired by herd sire Tulla Jaguar P. Jaguar P was purchased from the late Denis
O`Halloran from Tulla, Co. Clare and has bred many quality animals for the herd. The dam Coose
Morocco ET is a homebred cow, who in turn is sired by Mullyknock Gallant and is out of Curaheen
Bright Eyes who was purchased at the Curaheen Disperasl Sale in 2016 for the late David Wall. This
exciting heifer heads to N. Ireland after being secured by Alfie Shaw for his Glebe Farm Herd in
Dungannon, Co. Tyrone.
Second highest price of the day at €10,000 went to Kieran & Paul Mullarkey, Ballinfull, Co. Sligo
with Lissadell Riley VIP ET. At 14 months of age this Dermotstown Delboy sired heifer is out of the
Milnafua Graduate dam Corbally Eires VIP. This heifer also heads to N. Ireland where she will join
the Haystar herd of Gavin Hayes, Lisburn, Co. Antrim.
