The $400,000 valued sire of this mating, EXAR Cover The Bases 0819B, was the top-selling bull of the Express Ranches Spring 2022 Bull Sale when half interest sold for $200,000 to Pollard Farms. This phenotypic favorite at ORIgen has been described as a "different kind of high marbling Angus bull" with a moderate frame size, exceptional depth and volume and a fleshing ability one would not expect from a bull with his carcass EPD profile. His first calves are coal black and made awesome, making them the standout sire group in many of the top registered herds across the county. Early genomic results indicate his progeny will cultivate his impressive genetic predictors for profit adding traits.

As you invest in new genetics and make spring breeding decisions, keep in mind that according to the 2022 Certified Angus Beef Consist Study, among carcasses eligible for the brand that fail to become certified, 83.2% of them failed to have enough marbling to meet Certified Angus Beef brand standards (a Modest or higher marbling score), thus making EXAR Cover The Bases 0819B an easy choice provide the genetics needed to improve your bottom line and the the bottom line of your customers.
