One of the goals that the Gleeson family expressed with the establishment of Elm Banks Holstein in 1996, was breeding EX cows. That this has worked out is proven by their Elm Banks Brook Misty. She recently became the second Australian Holstein ever to classify EX-96. In addition, Misty has two EX daughters herself.
