Store lambs broke through the $170 mark at yesterday's sale at Stortford Lodge.

Although longer-term lambs eased slightly, the best of the male lambs continued to rise with the two top pens making $173 and $170.

The best ewe lambs made $164.50 but most of them and the smaller male lambs were between $140 and $150.

A big offering from Chatham Island vendors and 1200-plus from Riverbank Station, Rissington, were features of the sale.

The cattle sale at about 500 head was the biggest for some weeks. A feature was the 208 in-calf heifers and cows from various vendors.
