You could try Barenbrug or dlf

But it's not a very good time of the year to be putting grass seed in, especially if you are doing it cheap you will be putting a fairly low rate on and germination rate will be lower in winter.

go to your local ag merchants and ask for a long term grass ley, you wanna put about 125kg on 10acres, you can plant now but as above you'd be best leaving till march. We've planted in early Feb before now into cold soil and it took nearly 6weeks to germinate, and hence germination was poor. Plant in early to mid march into warmer soils them it'll be up in a fortnight!

 

Grass seeds aren't cheap this year, poor harvest last year coupled with higher wheat prices forcing growing areas up and reducing grass seed production areas mean big hike in price. And that when i brought 235acres worth of seed it was still a hefty price!
