Sale from

Harestone Herd on behalf of Messrs R & N Barclay

Harestone Charolais herd was established in 1985 by my father Neil, who was impressed by the performance of the breed.

We have always aimed to breed cattle primarily to suit commercial producers - our main customers. We strive for thick, easy fleshing cattle with high growth rates. There are various ways in which to measure performance, but we have found actual facts and profit in your pocket hard to stray from.

As producers of commercial cattle also, our aim is to produce suckled calves that can reach 400kg in as short a period as possible, on minimal costs. In this process - you can’t beat the Charolais.

This is the first time we have put together a female sale, as our Charolais herd is now at a level where we are happy with the performance and willing to showcase our females. Our seven selected heifers have all been running with the bull and will be scanned pre-sale.

We think we have forward females to suit all tastes and welcome breeders old and new for a look. We thank you for your interest in our females. Please don’t hesitate to enquire about any of our lots prior to the sale.

All the best Stuart Barclay Service Sire reference: Harestone Oscar (MBMI0001004) is easy calving.

His sire - I LOVE U - is a great breeding bull siring many of the best breeding bulls in France at the moment.

His dam - EUROVISION - won the Paris Show.

His 3dam is the noted MERVEILLE. OSCAR was bought privately in France and is shared with Elgin, Allanfauld and Corrie herds.
