Congratulations to Chris and Mary Gleeson of Elm Banks Holsteins in Victoria’s Western District on the accomplishment of Australia’s second EX96 point cow, Elm Banks Brook Misty EX96-5E. Misty, in her ninth lactation, is the dam of two Excellent daughters: Elm Banks Sid Misty EX91-2E and Elm Banks Misty Rain EX90-2E. Tallelms Meadow Nancy EX96-6E, owned by CD and SP Russell of West Gippsland, was the only other cow in Australia to be classified as EX96 in 2011. Congratulations to the Gleeson family on the breeding and development of such an exceptional cow.
