I placed this class of AOM Yearling bucks under two as: A-B-C-E-D
​
Entry A places over Entry B in General Appearance for his higher more rounded escutcheon area, more width in his rump and smoother blending of his neck into the withers.
​
Entry B over Entry C in General Appearance for his width between the straighter set of hocks, more level through his topline and from above has smoother blending of his shoulder into the chest wall.
Entry C over Entry E in General Appearance for his width in the rump, longer in bone especially in the loin and more extension to the brisket.
Entry E over Entry D in General Appearance for his width in the chest floor and stronger in the knees, straighter and wider between the hocks and deeper in the heart girth in Body Capacity.
​
Entry D although standing last in this class is to be commended for his General Appearance for his sharp withers and long lean neck.

Entry A although a single entry in this class shows good Dairy Character with clear dairy wedges from the side and top, long in bone and in General Appearance has good width throughout.
Single entry with a really correct buck in his feet and legs. He is also long and level in his topline, very uphill and showing good dairy strength.
