About 1500 cattle were yarded at Wangaratta on Thursday for the all breeds premier weaner sale where true weaner heifers sold to a top of $1190.
Elders agent Oliver Mason said the market was on par with what has been happening through the week.
Mr Mason said the feature lines sold well to repeat buyers and the Euro cattle also sold very well.
"There was strong support from domestic lot feeders," he said.
Mr Mason said there was a lack of interest on secondary lines, however those who had their cattle well presented for the next step in the line were rewarded.
