CLAREMONT ANGUS

This year we are extremely proud to say we have been breeding Angus cattle for 85 years. At Claremont, we breed them tough to withstand all conditions. However, when on feed, they will “do like steam”.

Over the years, our carcass results have proven this.

2013 - A Claremont steer was the heaviest steer by 15 kilograms over all other breeds of steers at the Melbourne Royal. (RASV) There were 245 entrants.

2023 - A Claremont steer again won a most coveted award at the Melbourne Royal Show. This was Grand Champion Carcass above all other breeds in the competition.

This steer had a live weight of 584 kg, a hot score carcass weight of 319 kg, a MSA Index of 63.51 and a total score of 91.69/100.

2014 - A Claremont steer was part of the trio that won the most coveted award in the Carcass Competition at the RASV, The Borthwick Trophy.

2024 - We entered another steer in the Carcass Competition at the Melbourne Royal Show. Our Claremont steer was the highest scoring Angus steer in the Export Carcass Class. He came third in his class and was 0.16th of a point behind the winning steer. Our steer had a live weight of 564 kg, a hot score carcass weight of 323 kg, a MSA Index of 64.58 and a total score of 92.26/100.

2020 - A Claremont steer won Reserve Champion Led Steer at the Mount Gambier Show.

We are extremely proud of these achievements. It has taken generations of careful breeding to produce cattle that not only look good on the outside but also have a good carcass as well.

Thankyou also to the schools who have done a brilliant job preparing our steers over the years we have been in these Carcass Competitions.

2021 - A Claremont steer won Reserve Champion Led Steer at the Mount Gambier Show.

Sale Conditions:

We are pleased to offer our bulls in the same format as last year. Our sale will be conducted as an auction but not through the bull ring. The bulls will remain in their pens. The sale will be conducted in a shed close by. To aid you in purchasing the bulls, there will be a large TV screen inside. Each bull has been videoed a few weeks prior, then on Sale day ,shown on the screen in lot order and auctioned. More time in viewing the bulls before the sale commences is highly recommended

We have done this for a number of reasons; Occupational Health and Safety issues and time involved for preparation of the sale. We also think it is less stressful on the bulls.

Bull Health:

All bulls have been vaccinated with Ultravac 7 in 1, Vibrovax, Pestigard and drenched with Dectomax V prior to sale day. We recommend a booster of Ultravac 7 in 1, Vibrovax, Pestigard and semen testing prior to joining. We also recommend you discuss with your vet about repeat yearly vaccinations in line with industry recommendations.

History:

Angus cattle were first introduced to Claremont in 1940 with the purchase of 40 heifers from the Kahlua Stud. New bloodlines were added with the purchase of bulls from the annual Angus sales at Wodonga. In the late 1960’s it was decided to breed our own bulls from our own specially selected cows.

This meant we could breed Angus cattle with their own stamp and particular style, unique to Claremont. With vast improvement in AI techniques and astute blending of worldwide genetics, we believe each new drop of calves is better than the last.

Our aim for the future is a blend of muscle, structure and growth in a consistent package year in year out.

Inspection of Cattle:

Bulls can be viewed on the day of the sale, or prior inspection by arrangement.

Free Delivery:

To farm gate within 100 kms from Claremont immediately after the Sale.

To all major livestock selling centres on Eastern Seaboard to Southern Queensland.

Insurance:

All cattle are at the purchaser’s risk from the fall of the hammer. We recommend all cattle be insured.

12 Month Guarantee & Fertility:

As with any species, fertility can be a problem. This is why Claremont Angus semen test ALL sale bulls, this testing was done on the 6th February 2025. Bulls are examined by Nationwide Artificial Breeders Pty Ltd for erection abnormalities and satisfactory sperm count specifications. The visual test identifies penile warts, hair rings, injuries and penile frenulums by undergoing a physical examination of external genitalia and conformation. The crush side semen test involves qualified analysis of spermatozoa for motility, concentration, morphology and semen infections such as seminal vesiculitis. This information provides testicular and epididymal function which helps predict the potential fertility of the bull. Only bulls that pass this strict testing regime are certified and make the sale listing. This testing was done by Drew Pickford from Nationwide Artificial Breeders. Buyers shall receive proof of fertility of each purchased bull after the sale.

In the unlikely event of a bull proving to be infertile or incapable of natural service the vendor will credit the purchase price to be used at the next sale, less the salvage value of the bull provided the problem is not caused by injury or disease contracted since taking delivery. Any claim must be accompanied by a relevant veterinary certificate.

Recessive Genetic Conditions

This is information for bull buyers about the recessive genetic conditions, Arthrogryposis Multiplex (AM), Hydrocephalus (NH), Contractural Arachnodactyly (CA) and Developmental Duplications (DD).

Putting undesirable Genetic Recessive Conditions in perspective

All animals, including humans, carry single copies (alleles) of undesirable or “broken” genes. In single copy form, these undesirable alleles usually cause no harm to the individual.

But when animals carry 2 copies of certain undesirable or “broken” alleles it often results in bad consequences. Advances in genomics have facilitated the development of accurate diagnostic tests to enable the identification and management of numerous undesirable or “broken” genes.

Angus Australia is proactive in providing its members and their clients with relevant tools and information to assist them in the management of known undesirable genes and our members are leading the industry in their use of this technology.

What are AM, NH, CA and DD?

AM, NH, CA and DD are all recessive conditions caused by “broken” alleles within the DNA of individual animals. When a calf inherits 2 copies of the AM or NH alleles their development is so adversely affected that they will be stillborn.

In other cases, such as CA and DD, calves carrying 2 copies of the broken allele may reach full-term. In such cases the animal may either appear relatively normal, or show physical symptoms that affect their health and/or performance.

What happens when carriers are mated to other animals?

Carriers, will on average, pass the undesirable allele to a random half (50 %) of their progeny.

When a carrier bull and carrier cow is mated, there is a 25% chance that the resultant calf will inherit two normal alleles, a 50% chance that the mating will result in a carrier (i.e. with just 1 copy of the undesirable allele, and a 25% chance that the calf will inherit two copies of the undesirable gene. If animals tested free of the undesirable gene are mated to carrier animals the condition will not be expressed at all. All calves will appear normal, but approximately half (50%) could be expected to be carriers.

How is the genetic status of animals reported?

DNA-based diagnostic tests have been developed which

can be used to determine whether an individual animal is either a carrier or free of the alleles resulting in AM, NH, CA or DD.

Angus Australia uses advanced software to calculate the probability of (untested) animals to being carriers of AM, NH, CA or DD. The software uses the test results of any relatives in the calculations and the probabilities may change as new results for additional animals become available.

The genetic status of animals is being reported using five categories:

AMF Tested AM free

AMFU Based on Pedigree AM free -

Animal has not been tested

AM_% _% probability the animal is an AM carrier

AMC Tested AM-Carrier

AMA AM-Affected

For NH, CA and DD, simply replace AM in the above table with NH, CA or DD.

Registration certificates and the Angus Australia webdatabase display these codes. This information is displayed on the animal details page and can be accessed by conducting an “Database Search” from the Angus Australia website or looking up individual animals listed in a sale catalogue.

Implications for Commercial Producers

Your decision on the importance of the genetic condition status of replacement bulls should depend on the genetics of your cow herd (which bulls you previously used) and whether some female progeny will be retained or sold as breeders.

Most Angus breeders are proactive and transparent in managing known genetic conditions, endeavouring to provide the best information available. The greatest risk to the commercial sector from undesirable genetic recessive conditions comes from unregistered bulls with unknown genetic background. The genetic condition testing that Angus Australia seedstock producers are investing in provides buyers of registered Angus bulls with unmatched quality assurance.

Understanding the TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation (TACE)

What is the TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation?

The TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation is the genetic evaluation program adopted by Angus Australia for Angus and Angus influenced beef cattle. The TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation uses Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (BLUP) technology to produce Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs) of recorded cattle for a range of important production traits (e.g. weight, carcase, fertility).

The TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation is an international genetic evaluation and includes pedigree, performance and genomic information from the Angus Australia and Angus New Zealand databases, along with selected information from the American and Canadian Angus Associations.

The TransTasman Angus Cattle Evaluation utilises a range of genetic evaluation software, including the internationally recognised BLUPF90 family of programs, and BREEDPLAN® beef genetic evaluation analytical software, as developed by the Animal Genetics and Breeding Unit (AGBU), a joint institute of NSW Agriculture and the University of New England, and Meat and Livestock Australia Limited (MLA). What is an EBV?

An animal’s breeding value can be defined as its genetic merit for each trait. While it is not possible to determine an animal’s true breeding value, it is possible to estimate it. These estimates of an animal’s true breeding value are called EBVs (Estimated Breeding Values).

EBVs are expressed as the difference between an individual animal’s genetics and a historical genetic level (i.e. group of animals) within the TACE genetic evaluation, and are reported in the units in which the measurements are taken.

Using EBVs to Compare the Genetics of Two Animals

TACE EBVs can be used to estimate the expected difference in the genetics of two animals, with the expected difference equating to half the difference in the EBVs of the animals, all other things being equal (e.g. they are joined to the same animal/s).

For example, a bull with a 200 Day Growth EBV of +60 would be expected to produce progeny that are, on average, 10 kg heavier at 200 days of age than a bull with a 200 Day Growth EBV of +40 kg (i.e. 20

kg difference between the sire’s EBVs, then halved as the sire only contributes half the genetics).

Or similarly, a bull with an IMF EBV of +3.0 would be expected to produce progeny with on average, 1% more intramuscular fat in a 400 kg carcase than a bull with a IMF EBV of +1.0 (i.e. 2% difference between the sire’s EBVs, then halved as the sire only contributes half the genetics).

Using EBVs to Benchmark an Animal’s Genetics with the Breed

EBVs can also be used to benchmark an animal’s genetics relative to the genetics of other Angus or Angus infused animals recorded with Angus Australia.

To benchmark an animal’s genetics relative to other Angus animals, an animal’s EBV can be compared to the EBV reference tables, which provide:

• the breed average EBV

• the percentile bands table

The current breed average EBV is listed on the bottom of each page in this publication, while the current EBV reference tables are included at the end of these introductory notes.

For easy reference, the percentile band in which an animal’s EBV ranks is also published in association with the EBV.

Considering Accuracy

An accuracy value is published with each EBV, and is usually displayed as a percentage value immediately below the EBV.

The accuracy value provides an indication of the reliability of the EBV in estimating the animal’s genetics (or true breeding value), and is an indication of the amount of information that has been used in the calculation of the EBV.

EBVs with accuracy values below 50% should be considered as preliminary or of low accuracy, 50-74% as of medium accuracy, 75-90% of medium to high accuracy, and 90% or greater as high accuracy.

Description of TACE EBVs

EBVs are calculated for a range of traits within TACE, covering calving ease, growth, fertility, maternal performance, carcase merit, feed efficiency and structural soundness. A description of each EBV included in this publication is provided on the following page.
