Sire: Waco Knight (P) All Breeds Champion Bull Brisbane Royal 2000.
Dam: Wilgaroon E17 -6 calves, 5 classified.
Wilgaroon Jester (P) was Grand Champion Santa Gertrudis Bull at the 2004 Brisbane Royal Show. The decision to keep Jester was made long before the sale season as he always showed exceptional growth, weight for age and natural thickness. Jester's dam Wilgaroon E17 was a lovely Murrumbo Beaumon (P) daughter that bred well. His first drop of sale bulls averaged $16,000 including the Australian Record of $80,000 for Warenda Sahara (P). Another good drop of Jester sons will be offered at the 2008 WW bull sale.

Sire: Wave Hill Major (P) Sold to the Strathmore Stud for $44,000.
Dam: Warenda H53 - 8 calves in 9 years.
Warenda Mexico (P) is a bull we regard highly, combining all the traits we are looking for into one bull. His EBV's and GeneStar say everything. His calves are very thick, growthy and sound in structure. A daughter, Wilgaroon Kit Kat (P), won Junior Champion Heifer at the Goondiwindi Feature show. A son, Warenda Q54, is the first 8 star (Marbling and Tenderness) Genestar Santa Gertrudis world wide. He sold in the 2005 bull sale for $5,000.
