The birth and weaning data above is already reflected in the Fall 2007 EPD's. 

The yearling & ultrasound data will be part of the FALL 2008 AHA EPD analysis.  The beauty of the yearling/ultrasound data is:
  •  
 Frank P230 was even better than expected for %IMF
  •  
 Even though he was expected to be the lowest ratio bull for REA, he came in "average" at 100 ratio amongst a group with an average REA EPD of +0.32.  That make the 100 ratio for REA the most impressive individual statistic of any measured in this test.
