We are now able to offer straws of Thrunton Alpha (pictured) for UK & Export. Contact us for details.
Alpha was purchased from JHC Campbell & Sons at Perth in February 2007 for 10,000 guineas.
He is sired by the legendary Burradon Talisman who has sired bulls to 55,000 guineas. His dam, Thrunton Marlyn is sired by Moncur General (by Balmyle Champion) and traces back to a tremendous French bred cow Lanton Jouvencelle.
We selected Alpha for our herd because of his terrific fleshing ability coupled with great style and locomotion.
