SNEAKER
- 2 daughters (calves)
- Dam & Full Sister to Sneaker & 2 ½ Sister’s to Sneaker
Sneaker is a unique high type Meridian son who combines extreme production traits with tremendous Type. Backed by 10 Gens of VG/EX Dams from the well-recognized North American cow family of the Sandy/Sundays.
Sneaker’s Dam: Al. Ce Atwood Samuela VG89 – max score is currently milking in her 2nd lactation and due to be dried off shortly for her third. Samuela is not your everyday Atwood daughter, she is strong and powerful through her front end, very well-balanced throughout and has a beautiful udder which is sown on to last. Her breeders have her penned with her Meridian daughter (Full Sister to Sneaker), only fresh a month, this young two year old showed us plenty of promise. Oozing Style, she was clean through the neck and leg, with a well attached udder both at the rear and fore currently giving over 34 litres a day (2 x per day milking). She is a little taller than an average sized heifer but could handle her legs perfectly just like Sneaker’s proof indicates.
On farm we also saw two of Sneakers oldest daughters in Italy. In a pen with 20 others, the two Sneaker daughters stood out, one blacker than the other but both long in the body and clean through the legs. Ideally Sneaker would complement any Oman, Shottle or Bolton bloodlines and is a perfect bull for breeders wanting to improve feet and legs and overall conformation.
EUDON
- Milking Daughters (2 different Farms)
Eudon stormed into the Italian and UK Rankings this August, dominating the Italian Type rankings in the No.1 spot and in the top five for the UK. Eudon is not a typical Million son he combines positive health traits whilst maintaining width and power through to his daughters.
Having seen milking daughters of Eudon on two different farms there is no-doubt that Eudon is doing exactly what he says on the tin! His daughters are strong and powerful throughout. Their udders square, wide and high at the rear and long and smooth in the fore. Their mammary systems were impressive too, with vienation welding the udders on and near-perfect teat placement and length. In the body the Eudon’s have a great sweep to the rib and are solid through the shoulder and chest. All of them track like trains and were resilient cows. Breeders compliment their quiet temperaments and their willingness to milk. Eudon has to be one of the most consistent proven bulls on the market today, his daughters are very uniform giving breeders great confidence in using Eudon across a large group of heifers or cows.
Eudon’s breeders Go-Farm Holsteins were re-using the bull themselves, their comments “we are very happy with his daughters, they are low maintenance cows that are built to last and have beautiful udders- everyone is the same”. Eudon’s progeny can fit into any commercial or pedigree system, having seen his daughters in both environments and at the Cremona show, it is clear that he is producing a modern dairy cow fit for today’s breeders.
SCOLARI
- Milking daughters at Go-Farm
Scolari is a chart-topping Jeeves son who descends back to the great Splendor cow family. This maternal line continues to breed high testing progeny and Scolari is the latest hot sire to be released. Currently lying in No.1 position for PFT of all proven bulls in Italy Scolari is proving to be an extremely popular sire both in Italy and across Europe.
Having seen six daughters of Scolari it is quite clear why he is a breeder’s favourite. His daughters are perfect for any commercial system, hardworking, honest milking cows. They are of average size and have excellent udders- especially in the rear. A very noticeable trait Scolari was transmitting was excellent feet and legs with clean hocks and admirable heel depth perfect for either housed or grazing systems.
Scolari is the perfect bull to be using on Oman bloodlines where you will see a great improvement in the legs/feet and udder. He may need to be protected for front teat placement as some are a little wider than average but is a bull who can be easily placed.
TIMOTHY
- 2 Show calves
Fantasy Timothy brings built-in Type from a popular Italian cow family housed at Fantasy holsteins. His unique sire stack of Eudon (Top Proven Type & Udder sire, also sold by Mastergen) x Golden Dreams (Former No.1 Type Sire UK & Int) gives Timothy the edge when compared to any other high Type sire on the market.
Timothy calves stood out at the Cremona Show with several of them placing in the top-end of their respected classes. They were all well grown for their ages and very strong through the toplines. All of them had width through the rumps and a nice slope from hook to pin. Despite being taller calves they had tremendous balance and look to make good cows for the future.
Timothy is a perfect bull for any show breeder looking for a complete sire to breed the next great one! Look out for his progeny in the show ring, there are sure to be many more winners sired by Timothy in the future!
GALACTICO
- 1 Calf in the Italian Style Sale
Galactico is an early Galaxy son from Doorman’s full sister. His Dam, now scored EX90 as a senior three year old, is an impressive cow. Galactico’s extraordinary genomic predictions indicate he is a specialist in the elite field. The combination of Type & Components from his Dam, Val-Bisson Bookem Dona is a perfect mating onto his sire, Galaxy which has resulted in an elite well-balanced proof for Galactico.
Having seen one of his first daughters on the ground, there is no-doubt that Galactico will certainly exceed his expectations. His daughter was selected for the Italian Style Sale and was the spitting image of Galactico’s proof. She had style written all over her, but had so much balance throughout. Perfect set to the leg, clean, flat hocks and ideal foot composite. Her frame, deep and open-ribbed with a great barrel to fill – she will definitely grow herself into a cow maker! She looked promising underneath too and was arguably the most correct calf in the sale.
