2026 Reference Poll Sires

Name: MOUNTAIN VALLEY SCOOBY DOO S073 (PP) 

25 Sons Catalogued: Scooby Doo, despite his silly name he is a serious stud sire! It is absolutely great when a new stud sire with a complete outcross pedigree comes into the program and produces animals exactly what you want them to produce. Purchased at the 2023 Mountain Valley production sale for a Mountain Valley stud record of $70,000. He has really stamped his progeny, with softness, fantastic skin and hair and a beautiful carcase shape with impeccable structure. He is the type of sire you don't have to look at the catalogue to know it's a Scooby! His data has held up well and it's sometimes worth the punt purchasing a sire that might not be everything on paper but is certainly everything you want in a physical bull. You should see his daughters that will calve in 2026.

Name: MATARIKI NAVIGATOR (IMP NZL) (PP) 

13 Sons Catalogued: Stop Press- In 2025 a Navigator son sold for an all-time NZ record bull price of $80,000NZD at the Matariki production sale. In 2022 I visited NZ looking at all the leading stud herds in the country. Matariki is an impressive operation running all cattle under real world commercial conditions with a real world modern commercial market focus. Although the country side looks different, the philosophy of running a stud was just like being at Injemira. Navigator was a bull that impressed immediately, he is just such a long bodied sire with fantastic data. He certainly has impressed at Injemira, with sons selling extremely well in 2025 and I would say are even better in 2026. Look out for Lot 33 he is a real game changer! Highlight of the calf drop is the overall consistency of type. NB: We haven't sold any semen in this sire in Australia, so a son is your only opportunity to gain access to this record breaking sire.

 Name: YARRANDABBIE RICHARD R004 (AI) (PP) 

13 Sons Catalogued: In 2022 Richard or "King Dick" as we call him was purchased at the Wodonga National Show & Sale for $70,000 by Injemira. I always say if I see a really good bull I will buy it. Richard certainly ticked all my boxes as I think he was the best sire I had seen at that sale for many years. His progeny are very consistent and what is a great sign as progeny data gets added his Breed plan figures are improving every month. In 2025 sons sold extremely well at Injemira and in fact topped a number of production sales in Australia to stud clients we sold semen to. A number of standout sons are catalogued throughout the sale and I am sure this new outcross sire will still be in demand.

Name: MATARIKI NEPTUNE (IMP NZL) (PP) 

12 Sons Catalogued: The sire of 2 of the top priced bulls in 2025 selling to $45,000 and averaging $16,200 for 9 sons sold. In 2022 I visited NZ looking at all the leading stud herds in the country. Matariki is an impressive operation running all cattle under real world commercial conditions with a real world modern commercial market focus. Although the country side looks different the philosophy of running a stud was just like being at Injemira. Neptune was a bull that impressed immediately. So much carcase with a doing ability I require on a very structurally sound base. He certainly has impressed at Injemira. NB: We haven't sold any semen in this sire in Australia, so a son is your only opportunity to gain access to this wonderful sire line.

Name:  INJEMIRA KICKSTART P093 R002 (AI) (PP) 

11 Sons Catalogued: Kickstart R002 in my opinion is one of the best P093 son bred at Injemira, so I decided to keep him as a backup AI joining sire and he has not disappointed. The sons have big 'panda' eyes with tremendous length and carcase coming from an extremely low birth calving ease base. if you are looking for a heifer bull, a R002 son will certainly let you get on with work when the heifers are calving.

Name: BOWEN PATRIARCH P017 (AI) (ET) (PP) 

6 Sons Catalogued: Patriarch has done a wonderful job over heifers and now cows. Purchased in 2020 as the second top priced bull at the Bowen production sale he impressed me for the balance of calving ease, growth and muscle content from a predictable pedigree. He has not disappointed, he really puts a stamp on his progeny with very little tail in his offspring as a group. In 2023 he produced the top selling bull selling to the Elsom family for $75,000 and he did it again in 2024, topping the sale at $75,000. 2026 is the last year to purchase a Patriarch son.

Name: DAYS HEIDELBURG Q195 (AI) (P) 

4 Sons Catalogued: The Heidelberg sons are everything we hoped for. He was purchased for his extreme carcase shape and he certainly breeds that on. That carcase is certainly backed up by his strong carcase EBVs with both EMA and Marbling in the top 1% of the breed. In 2024 he had a son as the second top priced bull selling to Willinga for $40,000 and he did it again in 2025 producing the second top priced bull selling to Jarrah for $35,000. Some really extreme carcase sons are catalogued in 2026.

Name: INNISFAIL TRADEMARK 1939 (IMP USA) (PP) 

3 Sons Catalogued. At Injemira I am always looking all over the world for new outcross genetics and Trademark hit the bill. I need to bring our commercial clients new and world leading genetics to enhance their herds consistently. In a partnership with ABS Australia I received a 12 month exclusivity right on the use of Trademark giving you the Injemira clients a head start. I am so impressed with the progeny on the ground and in this sale. It's always a worry bringing in genetics from the US. Will they be marketable in Australia. Trademark is a big yes, they are full of meat with great pigment and a dark red colour throughout. As you will notice the data on his sons is exceptional and being 2 y/o heifers first calves in the Spring group makes it impressive after the season we had at Injemira in 2025.
