AUCTIONEER’S NOTE: We believe that these ewes, principally Cranleigh bred and blended to an infusion of top Waioronogomai blood, could well find a place in most leading studs in New Zealand, and could at the same time be the foundation for future successful flocks. The prefix "DOWNS” we are confident will appear many times in the pedigree of outstanding stud sheep yet to be born.
