The fancy Apoll P 2nd calver Batouwe Catharina 3-Red increased her score to VG-89-NL with EX-91 for dairy strength. Backed by the Catharina EX-91-NL (Mature Champion R&W Dairy Fair Marienwaerdt '16) cow family. Also Hiddink Tulipe 424, a rare offspring from the popular Guex Tulipe-Red EX-98-NL family.

September 9, 2020 The absolute cream of the Genomic cream was sold during the Vekis Spring in 2016. Several chart toppers were being offered, now house hold names such the grand dam of Koepeon Alta Top Red, DG HS Schreur Delta Sanne, Vekis DG Paige, the dam of Popeye and Powerbos, Flora Atwood Adeena and more. There was also a REALLY nice young heifer sired by Willsbro Atwork direct from BTS Avea, she maybe did not have the highest number, but she was NICE, really nice. Yes the looks were important here. Nici Nosbisch decided to take the gamble and bought her. Nici mated her to Salvatore *RC… what an interesting combination. Of course Salvatore *RC is already line bred to Snowman, Salvatore *RC being a Supershot in combination with Atwork doubling up on Supersire, then again on the maternal side of Atwork the KHW Super Aderyn doubling on the great Durham Altitude cow being also the grand dam of BTS Avea, who herself was already line bred to Altitude. Then again KHW Super Aderyn being a Superstition daughter double the Superstition influence with Rose Superclass the dam of Superstition. Yes it certainly worked out well line breeding to some of the best individuals the Holstein Breed has offered in the last decades Supersire, Durham Altitude (dam of the Legendary Apple as well), Supersire and Snowman. A famous breeder once said I rather line bred/ inbreed on the top animals then keep it outcross with less quality genetics, something that certainly worked here.
