Ryedale Orion set some new breed yardsticks on this year's summer show circuit by winning, amongst a host of titles, interbreed crowns at each of the three 'major' Royal shows. In so doing, this young March 1998 born bull provided a tremendous promotion for the Limousin breed generally and supplied more than a few thrills for the 'Ryedale team' of owners Peter and Anne Lang and stockman David Cormack and his wife, Mary.

We are pretty sure this is the first time that an animal from the Limousin breed, and possibly from any other beef breed, has won interbreed titles in the same show season at the Royal Show, Royal Highland and Royal Welsh Shows. For good measure Orion picked up another interbreed title at his home show, the Great Yorkshire. A remarkable year, and our congratulations go to all concerned." - Extract from British Limousin Cattle Society website - December 1999
