AMPERTAINE GIGOLO

Ampertaine Gigolo is the sire of the £147,000 world record priced Limousin bull Trueman Jagger who was sold at Carlisle in October 2015.  At this sale Gigolo’s first three calves born all won their classes took the Supreme & Reserve Championships and averaged £71,400!

A daughter of Ampertaine Gigolo also won the Dutch Supreme National Show in October 2015.

A half share of Ampertaine Gigolo was sold privately by the breeder James McKay to the Dutch company Cowporation in a deal that eclipsed the herd record price of 38,000gns.

A fast growing bull, Ampertaine Gigolo weighed 765kgs at 400days.  Carrying tremendous performance figures he is in the top 1% of recorded animals for 200 and 400 day weight, and has top 1% Beef Value.  Combining performance and pedigree, Gigolo is by the prolific Ampertaine Commander (Champion Carlisle May 2009 when realising 20,000gns) and is out of the powerful Ronick Gains cow, Ampertaine Crystal.

Ampertaine Gigolo has everything you want in a Limousin bull: enormous width right from the back through to his front, exceptional volume, and powerful strength without losing any of his elegance and style. Standing on four very good legs, he is exceptionally square on his plates and very clean right through. A tremendous bull who has made an immediate mark in Limousin breeding!
