Purchase Price is your bid x 3

The donor dam of lots 11 thru 14, Blackbird 7260, is a flush sister to the $730,000 half interest record-setting VAR Power Play 7018. This powerful and proven donor sold for $200,000 as a heifer calf to Riverbend Ranch to top her calf crop at Vintage and in the 2021 Riverbend sale, Barry Pollard purchased half interest and possession of this very special daughter of the $10,000,000 producing Blackbird 8809, before offering this highly fertile donor that has produced 514 embryos from 37 IVF cycles again in her entirety in the 2023 Pollard Sale, where she sold for $65,000 and produced a fall E.T. heifer calf by Fireball that sold for $50,000 to Vintage Angus.

7260 offers an average progeny URE ratio of 14 at 102 from a dam with an average progeny birth ratio of 3 at 94, average progeny weaning ratio of 3 at 116, average progeny yearling ratio of 2 at 105, average progeny %IMF ratio of 58 at 106 and average progeny URE ratio of 58 at 102. This cow line offers proven longevity as the grandam of lots 11 thru 14 is still in production at Vintage at 15 years of age and her genetics have remained relevant and valuable with heifer calves from her selling for $100,000 and $90,000 in the 2022 sale at Vintage.

This mating is sired by the $60,000 rare and very valuable ST Genetics sire, Connealy Clarity, who was a feature from the 2020 Connealy Spring Sale. Clarity is highly out-crossed to most animals near his level of genetic merit with excellent projections for heifer preg, docility, growth and carcass and is an elite $Combined sire who checks all the boxes while bringing worlds of muscle expression, stoutness, and foot quality that sweetens his powerful look.

Will guarantee at least one pregnancy to result as long as embryos are paid for within 30 days of the sale, picked up within 60 days of the sale, and are implanted within 12 months of the sale by a certified embryologist.
