River Run Charolais Stud Sires

Baroola Astrix

We purchased Astrix at the 2007 Baroola sale after having the opportunity to see him at the Ekka.

Astrix is an upstanding bull with smooth shoulders and deep sides & flank. He is soft skinned covering easily with scans at 21 months showing 7/6 and 133 sq cms ema and weighing in at an impressive 910kg.

The growth & scale of this easy travelling bull are reflected in his EBV's.  Check out his excellent Genestar results.

His first calves are due to drop in the spring of 2008.

River Run Zoom

A very easy keeping smooth coated bull with consistent low birth weights and a perfect temperament.  For us the temperament and carcass qualities of this bull put him out in front.

Whether over stud or commercial cows these attributes consistently shine through.

Bandon Xquisite

Purchased at Ag Show in 2004 Xquisite has produced all that we had hoped for.  With outstanding carcass characteristics, his calves are thick and robust from the moment they hit the ground.

Impeccable temperament, polled, free moving, short coat, easy doing, great feet & legs and backed up with great EBV's.
