Overall prices were good although the GOS sale was less spectacular. Top priced GOS female was Joan & Ann Uglow's in-pig gilt, Endsleigh Princess Mary 2592 which sold for 285 guineas (£299.25). All the females bar two sold through the ring but two young boars went home unsold and the top price was 360 gns (£378) for Endsleigh Sambo 2562 a senior boar born in Oct 2007 from the same vendors.
