New Breed Record At 12,000gns For Gorse Longhorns At Worcester on Saturday 18th August 2018

Tue 18 August 2015

The virtual dispersal sale of John & Joshua Brigg’s Gorse herd of Longhorn cattle – the oldest privately owned herd in the breed set new heights at Worcester when their 8 year old cow Gorse Rosa by Underknoll Quest and out of Gorse Iberis sold with her heifer calf at foot by Lockinge Kit at a new breed record of 12,000gns to 11th Earl de la Warr, Withyham, Sussex.

Fierce competition throughout followed the cow who had previously bred Gorse Valentine Rose that won the breeds cow of the year in 2017.
That set the trend for the sale with no fewer than 14 cattle over 2,000gns.
