An essential characteristic in the bull is an expression of vigour, resolution and masculinity. He should be thoroughly robust in appearance and create the impression that in a herd of wild cattle he would likely become master of the herd by the law of natural selection and survival of the fittest.

And whatever value records of production may possess, they will never displace the importance of masculinity
