The much admired Deeleview Joanne, born 26th February 2014, sold to Mr Philip McGrory, Dungannon, Northern Ireland for €3,100.

She was the first Hideal daughter to be sold at public auction.

Earlier in the sale, Deeleview Jeremy, also a February born Hideal bull calf, sold with his dam, for €5,000 to Mr Andy McGovern, Co Longford.

A Bova Banker daughter, Deeleview Felicity, born April 2010 made €3,900 for Mr Ian Maxwell at his dispersal sale.

Pictured below is Hideal, who is breeding very well for Bova, with his first crop of calves meeting with very high satisfaction amongst pedigree and commercial breeders in Ireland.

Semen is available from Bova AI for just €8 per straw.
