FOREWORD The Gretnahouse herd is based at Gretna House Farms, a lowland farm of roughly 800 acres on the Scotland border. The farm was purchased in 1885 by Alasdair’s great, great maternal grandfather Hugh Mackie. Predominately a grass and cereal farm, the venture into pedigrees started with Charolais, which were imported by Alasdair’s father, Adair.

In 1970, those four cattle were worth just about half the value of the farm. Adair passed his love for farming and cattle breeding onto Alasdair and when he returned to the farm aged 23, his lifelong passion for selection really took hold. In an article in the Scottish Farmer written by Ken Fletcher just before his death, he explained “It gives me a great buzz to see Gretnahouse bulls breeding as predicted in their new herds,” But is it figures, or the stockman’s eye? “Evaluation by eye is still so important.

Charisma is something that doesn’t have a figure, but does it have a value? Yes it really does. An animal that carries itself well is a better animal than one that doesn’t. “An animal that has that special spark, more often than not also has some other commercially important traits. But, it’s essential to use this expertise alongside figures data-driven knowledge is an important third leg on the stool alongside pedigree and eye.”

Today, the Gretnahouse herd is one of the most influential in the national Charolais herdbook, with bulls selling to 25,000gns twice at national sales. Added to this achievement was the creation of an Aberdeen Angus herd in 2011, and in just over a decade, Gretnahouse Blacksmith L500 is one of the most sought-after bulls in the breed. In the early stages of the Simmental breed, the Gretnahouse name echoed through sales rings, with Gretnahouse Supersonic gaining widespread distinction, and even today his name is scattered throughout the herd book. More than 2000 head have been registered off him - the second-highest figure between when the Simmentals came into the UK in 1970 and 2019. Many, many herds have him in their background somewhere.

But 20 years ago, foot-and-mouth disease ripped the heart out of the prefix, taking with it all of the the herd. However, with resolution and the conviction of his breeding policies, the Gretnahouse name was re-established by Alasdair using a breeding program by embryo transfer purchasing some of the best genetics from fellow breeders.

Since Alasdair’s passing, the Charolais progress at Gretnahouse has also been appreciated by fellow pedigree breeders. Bulls such as Gretnahouse Heman, has done immensely well in the Goldies herd; Gretnahouse Lunar, worked well at Balthayock; Gretnahouse Ivory, at Bonnykelly, and Gretnahouse Jugular, going into the Montgomery herd. Charolais sales since 2001 also include the 25,000gns Ubeauty; the 20,000gns Pouncer and 16,000gns Pimp all at Carlisle; the 25,000gns Lord; the 20,000gns Primate; the 15,000gns Heman, 16,000gns Rosco, and 12,000gns Ready all at Stirling.

In the Angus herds, the first two Angus bulls sold at Stirling both made 10,000gns, to Idvies and to Rosemead. Subsequent trips there produced sales at 15,000gns for Exocet, to Schivas; 13,000gns to Glympton: 10,000gns to Belhaven plus many other five figure prices privately and sales to other notable herds like Galcantray and Tonley.

Recently, the herd has twice set the centre record at Carlisle for A-A, first at 8,000gns and then at 12,000gns, both to pedigree herds and more recently achieved Junior and Overall Male Champion in May 2023.

7

These full herd dispersals marks another changes in the history of the farm, moving away from pedigrees, whilst it awaits the arrival and input of the next generation of the Houston family in due course.

My decision to disperse the Gretnahouse herds, following Alasdair’s passing in 2021 has been very emotional and difficult. His passion and drive in all he did shone through and was reflected back with the achievements that he and the herds had. Not only in his beloved Charolais which his father Adair started as one of the original importers, but also with Simmental’s and then latterly following the heart break of FMD, the Aberdeen Angus herd. He talked about cattle breeding being a drug for him - and having seen firsthand that love affair he had for his animals for the 30 years that we were together I can vouch for that. However, Tara, Rafe and I take comfort knowing that the genetics that he so carefully selected will move into herds right across the country.

Finally, on a personal note, can I thank you all for the overwhelming support I have received - from my incredible family, to all of our fabulous friends, the warmth and generosity given in advice and guidance from cattle breeders, the amazing support I have had from everyone ever involved in Gretna House Farms, and finally to my loyal and hard working team at Gretna House Farms, both past and present, full and part time - you know who you are, and how much you have all done. I could not have survived the last few years without you all. Thank you.

GRETNA HOUSE FARMS HEALTH STATUS Both Gretnahouse Charolais and Aberdeen Angus herds have had the health of its cows as the top priority over the years. The herds have been health testing as part of the Premium Cattle Health Scheme via SAC since 2005. No commercial cattle have been kept on the farm to maintain biosecurity and the focus has always been entirely on the 2 pedigree herds. Breeding has always been managed using a mixture of AI and Stock Bulls with a small amount of ET work used in previous years.

TB – The herd is currently in a routine 48 monthly testing interval, the last herd test date was on 24.11.2020 (CLEAR TEST) BVD - The herd is vaccinated yearly with Bovela BVD, last vaccination March 2023. A yearly check test via PCHS is carried out on youngstock every Autumn and is consistently CLEAR. Last test was on 31.08.2023 IBR – The entire herd is marker vaccinated with Bovilis IBR marker Live shortly after birth, moving onto a rigid 6 monthly vaccination program with Hipra IBR marker Live. Sentinel testing of groups of yearlings have shown no seroconversion in them to wild strain IBR virus in the past few years.

Leptospirosis – The adult herd and bulling heifers are vaccinated with Spirovac last vaccinated in April 2023 prior to turnout. Sentinel testing of groups of yearlings always have shown negative antibody blood test results.

Johnes – Herd Blood Testing since 2011 with Premium Cattle Health Scheme at SAC. Currently Johnes level R3 due to a single animal testing positive December 2022. It was subsequently culled.

Over the past 12 years the herd has been RL1 or RL2 in the majority of those years.

Clostridial Diseases - The adult herd (and older calves pre-weaning) are vaccinated as a precaution with Bravoxxin.

Calves & Youngstock – All calves are vaccinated at around 2-3 weeks old with an Intranasal vaccine (against RSV and PI3) to prevent viral pneumonias and repeated again before high-risk periods in late autumn.

It has been a pleasure working with Alasdair and the team at Gretna House farms over the years to help maintain a healthy and productive herd he would be very proud of today.

ABERDEEN ANGUS PREVIOUS HERD SIRES GRETNAHOUSE BLACKSMITH Blacksmith is a bull that doesn’t need much of an introduction. He is perhaps recognised as one of the most influential Aberdeen Angus bulls of his generation. Sire to many five figure sum bulls and producing stunning females. The impact he has had on the herd is second to none, this can be seen in the numerous Blacksmith sired cows throughout the sale.

STOUPHILL LORD RAMON 12,000gns Lord Ramon was a correct bull of great length and impressive shape not often seen in the breed. He had fantastic breeding out of a Rawburn cow and by Duncanziemere Jigsaw.

He has bred some lovely daughters making great milky cows with fantastic udder conformation.

Daughters of his have sold into pedigree herds to £5000 and multiple sons sold privately to 5 figures.

STOUPHILL LORD RAMON

BLELACK PRINCE Prince was a moderate sized bull with fantastic soft flesh, great length and even better performance traits. One of the easiest calving bulls we’ve had at Gretnahouse. Unfortunately Prince’s career was cut short due a back injury although the females he left are showing great promise. Prince is

by Oneills Black Bardolier who’s daughters sold to 32,000gns at Blelack.

HAYMOUNT PRECURSOR M255 18,000gns Supreme Champion, Precursor didn’t have many calves at Gretnahouse, although they have sold extremely well. Multiple bulls to five figures he also left tremendous cows. He is seen in the back pedigree in some of the cows here, Precursor has been used in our AI program this year.

HAYMOUNT PRECURSOR M255

RODMEAD PRIMERO R746 Primero was bought from Blelack ahead of their dispersal where his calves at foot looked impressive. Before this he has been with the McCombie family where his sons had sold to 13,000gns and bred the Overall Champion at the May 2021 bull sales at Carlisle. Primero is an impressive size, correct, has great locomotion and has an outstanding temperament. Main service sire at Gretnahouse, he is also the sire of most of the calves at foot, his calves are fantastic and are showing great promise.

Tremendous depth, correct and very well fleshed not to mention her great breed character. Her dam Eliza U048 is by Gretnahouse Blacklight R806 who sold for £10,000 to the Tynet herd, his sons from Gretnahouse have sold to a top of £7700.

The ‘Eliza’ family has bred Gretnahouse Exocet R770 who sold for 15,000gns and the 7000gns Gretnahouse Eiger V147. We think this heifer has a great future ahead of her and would be a real asset to any herd.

Superb at the time of writing has a handful of calves on the ground, these have been calved easily with great vigour, a very promising start to this young bull’s career.

DNA Status: SV Born 02/04/2023

GRETNAHOUSE HARLEM is a cow of tremendous size and length by the 11,000gns Balthayock Adonis. Her calving record shows her consistency at Gretnahouse with daughters retained in the herd and her sons selling to a top of 7800gns. Harlem’s breeding goes back to one of the foundation cows, Westcarse Ovation (ET). Unfortunately, Harlem is only milking on 3 quarters, despite this she is still a fantastic mother and rears her calves well. She also has one cleat removed on her front right foot, she has been like this for quite a few years and manages well.

Gretnahouse Urbana (calf at foot) is a very stylish daughter of Lochend Nighthawk, full sister to Gretnahouse Tuscany a standout heifer in her group.

GRETNAHOUSE JANNABEL is one of the biggest cows on the farm by the easy calving Blelack Digger, she goes back to the tremendous foundation cow Balmyle Paradise. Jannabel bred 16,000gns Gretnahouse Pimp who is breeding exceptionally well for Haughhead and Lookaboutye. Unfortunately, Jannabel has been unsuccessful at maintaining a pregnancy post 4 weeks but is healthy and cycles regularly. We think Jannabel is a tremendous cow, worthy of being an embryo donor.

Her Female Calf at Foot GRETNAHOUSE ULU DNA Status: PV (UK581747501512) MBF0096171 Born 12/04/2023 Myostatin: F94L-0, Q204X-0 Sire - THRUNTON FAIRFAX (MBM0047633)

GRETNAHOUSE RULU is one of the first Nighthawk daughters to calve, she is very easily fleshed with a tremendous topline and is a great sign of things to come from Lochend Nighthawk. She is from a very productive cow family with bulls recently selling to 12,000gns. An exciting mating here.

Gretnahouse Ulu (calf at foot) is a very stylish heifer by Thrunton Fairfax, she is out of one of the first Lochend Nighthawk daughters. Unfortunately, she had a touch of mastitis over the summer so is likely to milk on 3/4s.

CHAROLAIS EXPLANATORY NOTES FOR CATALOGUES Only British Charolais BREEDPLAN EBVs can be validly compared between Charolais herds.

ESTIMATED BREEDING VALUES (EBVS)

The EBV is the best estimate of an animal's genetic merit for that trait.

ACCURACY

An accuracy value (Acc) is presented with every EBV and gives an indication of the amount of information that has been used in the calculation of that EBV. The higher the accuracy the lower the likelihood of change in the animal's EBV as more information is analysed for that animal or its relatives.

CALVING EASE Calving Ease EBVs are based on calving difficulty scores, birth weights and gestation length information. More positive EBVs are favourable and indicate easier calving.

DIR: Direct calving ease indicates how this animal influences the birth of its progeny. Using a bull in the Top 1% for CE direct (+16.7) is predicted to result in approximately 15% fewer assisted calvings in 2 year old heifers compared with using a bull in the Bottom 1% (-14.7). This range is predicted to be smaller in cows. Remember that the dam’s genetics and management are significant factors influencing calving ease in any mating.

DTRS: Daughter’s calving ease indicates how well the animal produces daughters that have easier calving.

BIRTH AND FERTILITY

GL: Gestation Length EBV (days) is based on AI records. Lower (negative) GL EBVs indicate shorter gestation lengths which generally relate to easier calving and increased growth after birth.

BWT: Birth Weight EBV (kg) is based on the measured birth weight of animals, adjusted for dam age. The lower the value the lighter the calf at birth and the lower the likelihood of a difficult birth.

This is particularly important when selecting sires for use over heifers.

SS: Scrotal Size EBV (cm) is an indicator of male fertility in regards to semen quality and quantity.

Higher (positive) EBVs indicate higher fertility. There is also a small negative correlation with age of puberty in female progeny.

GROWTH

MILK: 200-Day Milk EBV (kg) is an estimate of an animal's milking ability. For sires, this EBV is indicative of their daughter’s milking ability as it affects the 200-day weight of their calves.

200: 200-Day Growth EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of animals taken between 80 and 300 days of age. Values are adjusted to 200 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for growth to early ages.

400: 400-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 301 and 500 days of age, adjusted to 400 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for yearling weight.

600: 600-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 501 and 900 days of age, adjusted to 600 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for growth beyond yearling age.

MWT: Mature Cow Weight EBV (kg) is an estimate of the genetic difference in cow weight at 5 years of age. Moderate or larger EBVs are generally more favourable.

182

CARCASE EMA: Eye Muscle Area EBV (cm2) estimates genetic differences in eye muscle area of a 300kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate better muscling on animals.

FAT: Rib Fat EBV (mm) estimates the genetic differences in fat depth at the rib in a 300kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate more subcutaneous fat and earlier maturity.

RBY%: Retail Beef Yield Percent EBV (%) represents total (boned out) meat yield as a percentage of a 300kg dressed carcase. A more positive EBV indicates higher percentage yield for the 300kg carcase size.

IMF%: Intra-muscular Fat Percent EBV (%) is an estimate of the genetic difference in the percentage of intra-muscular fat at the 12/13th rib site in a 300kg carcase. Depending on market targets, larger more positive values are generally more favourable.

Terminal Index

The BCCS Terminal index is aimed at a commercial herd using Charolais bulls over large framed, mixed breed cows to breed steers and heifers to finish at 18 months of age. All progeny are destined for slaughter and no replacement females are selected from within the herd. There is some emphasis on calving ease while finishing steers at around 680 kg live weight (375 kg carcase weight) using a pasture based production system supplemented with extra rations during the finishing phase.

Use this index in a commercial herd to produce progeny for slaughter. The index has moderate emphasis on easier calving (ie getting a live calf with minimal human interference) while producing calves that will then grow quickly to market specifications at around 18 months of age. The index is focused on slaughter animals and does not account for maternal traits and is therefore not suited to breeding replacement females.

If you are using smaller framed cows or heifers in your herd, then you should also put extra emphasis on a higher calving ease direct EBV when selecting a sire using this index.

Self Replacing Index

The BCCS Self Replacing index is aimed at a Charolais herd breeding steers to finish at 16 months of age.

Replacement females are selected from within the herd. There is some emphasis on calving ease and maternal traits while finishing steers for slaughter at around 680 kg live weight (375 kg carcase weight) using a pasture based production system.

This Self Replacing index is also suitable to using Charolais sires over mixed breed cows where replacement females are sourced from within the herd. There may be some hybrid vigour expressed in the progeny depending on the breed type of the cows used. Therefore you should consider placing extra emphasis on the Calving Ease EBVs (more positive) of the sire to allow for possible heavier birth weights of his calves due to hybrid vigour.

Use this index in both commercial and pedigree herds where you are balancing the requirements of selecting replacement females while also producing animals for slaughter.

Charolais EBV ratios have been incorporated with the Estimated Breeding Values (EBV) to assist breeders in making their selection decisions when purchasing Charolais cattle. The Charolais EBV ratio for each trait shows that animal`s breeding value for that trait in relation to the current published breed average.

The average for each trait is 100, and the approximate range between the bottom 1% and the top 1% is between 70 and 130.

The British Charolais BREEDPLAN Estimated Breeding Values contained in this Sale Catalogue were compiled by the Agricultural Business Research Institute (ABRI) from data supplied by the breeders. Neither the British Charolais Cattle Society nor the ABRI oversee or audit the collection of this data.

British Charolais Myostatin Guide

What is Myostatin?

Myostatin is a gene that influences the production of proteins which control muscle development. When an animal is identified as having one of the mutations it means that they have inactive genes which do not control muscle growth as effectively, this can result in increased muscle mass. Currently in cattle, there are 19 known mutations of the gene and after extensive testing for the nine most common varients, we have concluded that the British Charolais cattle population only contains two - F94L & Q204X. Why are we testing for Myostatin?

Knowing the myostatin status of your animals will help you to select bulls with the most appropriate myostatin traits for your breeding programme. This will lead to better calving ease and help with the ever-present trend to improve carcase conformation and quality. However, it is just one tool which should be used in conjunction with the wider information available such as Estimated Breeding Values (EBV’s) – which predict the performance of the animal based on its back pedigree, accurate measurements and the performance of its herd mates – and your own judgement on type and pedigree.

How are these genes inherited?

All reproducing species have two copies of each gene – called alleles. If your Charolais has one copy of the myostatin variant (one allele) it is classed as heterozygous, if it has two copies (two allele) it is classed as homozygous.

The table to below shows the chances of inheriting depending on the status of the parents:

2 Homozygous Parents 1 Homozygous Parent 1 Heterozygous Parent 1 Homozygous Parent 1 Non-carrier Parent 2 Heterozygous Parents 1 Heterozygous Parent 1 Non-carrier Parent 2 Non-carrier Parents

ABERDEEN ANGUS UNDERSTANDING THE BREEDPLAN INFORMATION IN THIS CATALOGUE

PERFORMANCE

RECORDING

Only Aberdeen-Angus GROUP BREEDPLAN EBVs or INTERIM EBVs with Accuracy (Acc) can be validly compared between herds.

ESTIMATED BREEDING VALUES (EBVS)

The EBV is the best estimate of an animal's genetic merit for that trait.

ACCURACY

An accuracy value (Acc) is presented with every EBV and gives an indication of the amount of information that has been used in the calculation of that EBV. The higher the accuracy the lower the likelihood of change in the animal's EBV as more information is analysed for that animal or its relatives.

CALVING EASE

Calving Ease EBVs are based on calving difficulty scores, birth weights and gestation length information. More positive EBVs are favourable and indicate easier calving.

DIR: Direct calving ease indicates how this animal influences the birth of its progeny. Using a bull in the Top

1% for CE direct (+7.0) is predicted to result in approximately 15% fewer assisted calvings in 2 year old heifers compared with using a bull in the Bottom 1% (-10.2). This range is predicted to be smaller in cows.

Remember that the dam’s genetics and management are significant factors influencing calving ease in any mating.

DTRS: Daughter’s calving ease indicates how well the animal produces daughters that have easier calving.

BIRTH AND FERTILITY

GL: Gestation Length EBV (days) is based on AI records. Lower (negative) GL EBVs indicate shorter gestation lengths which generally relate to easier calving and increased growth after birth.

BWT: Birth Weight EBV (kg) is based on the measured birth weight of animals, adjusted for dam age. The lower the value the lighter the calf at birth and the lower the likelihood of a difficult birth. This is particularly important when selecting sires for use over heifers.

SS: Scrotal Size EBV (cm) is an indicator of male fertility in regards to semen quality and quantity. Higher (positive) EBVs indicate higher fertility. There is also a small negative correlation with age of puberty in female progeny.

GROWTH

MILK: 200-Day Milk EBV (kg) is an estimate of an animal's milking ability. For sires, this EBV is indicative of their daughter’s milking ability as it affects the 200-day weight of their calves.

200: 200-Day Growth EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of animals taken between 80 and 300 days of age.

Values are adjusted to 200 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for growth to early ages.

400: 400-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 301 and 500 days of age, adjusted to 400 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for yearling weight.

600: 600-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 501 and 900 days of age, adjusted to 600 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for growth beyond yearling age.

MWT: Mature Cow Weight EBV (kg) is an estimate of the genetic difference in cow weight at 5 years of age.

Smaller, or more moderate EBVs are generally more favourable.

1

187

CARCASE

CWT: Carcase Weight EBV (kg) estimates the genetic difference in carcase weight at a standard age of 650 days.

EMA: Eye Muscle Area EBV (cm2) estimates genetic differences in eye muscle area of a 300kg dressed carcase.

More positive EBVs indicate better muscling on animals.

FAT: Rib Fat EBV (mm) estimates the genetic differences in fat depth at the rib in a 300kg dressed carcase.

More positive EBVs indicate more subcutaneous fat and earlier maturity.

RBY%: Retail Beef Yield Percent EBV (%) represents total (boned out) meat yield as a percentage of a 300kg dressed carcase. A more positive EBV indicates higher percentage yield for the 300kg carcase size.

IMF%: Intra-muscular Fat Percent EBV (%) is an estimate of the genetic difference in the percentage of intramuscular fat at the 12/13th rib site in a 300kg carcase. Depending on market targets, larger more positive values are generally more favourable.

Indexes combine the EBVs with economic information for specific market and production systems to rank animals based on relative profit values.

Terminal index

The Angus Terminal index is aimed at a commercial herd using Angus bulls over dairy cross cows to breed steers and heifers to turn off at 16 months of age. All progeny are destined for slaughter and no replacement females are selected from within the herd. There is some emphasis on calving ease while finishing steers at around 600 kg live weight (330 kg carcase weight) using a pasture based production system.

Use this index in a commercial herd to produce progeny for slaughter. The index has moderate emphasis on easier calving (ie getting a live calf with minimal human interference) while producing calves that will then grow quickly to market specifications at around 16 months of age. The index is focused on slaughter animals and does not account for maternal traits and is therefore not suited to breeding replacement females.

If you are using smaller framed cows or heifers in your herd, then you should also put extra emphasis on a higher Calving Ease Direct EBV when selecting a sire using this index.

Self Replacing index

The Angus Self Replacing index is aimed at an Angus herd selecting replacement females from within the herd while breeding steers and excess heifers to turn off at 18 months of age. There is emphasis on calving ease and maternal traits while also looking to finish steers for slaughter at around 615 kg live weight (330 kg carcase weight) using a pasture based production system supplemented with extra rations during the finishing phase.

This Self Replacing index is also suitable to using Angus sires over mixed breed cows where replacement females are sourced from within the herd. There may be some hybrid vigour expressed in the progeny depending on the breed type of the cows used. Therefore you should consider placing extra emphasis on the Calving Ease EBVs (more positive) of the sire to allow for possible heavier birth weights of his calves due to hybrid vigour.

Use this index in both commercial and pedigree herds where you are balancing the requirements of selecting replacement females while also producing animals for slaughter.
