We have had exceptional Show and Sale results, being initially catapulted into the limelight at our first Royal Show in 1990 with Ryedale Dream, the first daughter of Haltcliffe Verne, who became Female Champion (as a heifer.) Since then, we have taken 33 different animals to the Royal Show, with 25 animals placed in the top 3 of their Classes.  The Keith Low trophy (most points) at the Royal Show has been won in 1999 (jointly) and 2000 (outright)

Ile, sired by Tarvis, was awarded the herd’s second Royal Show Female Championship in 1996, (again as a heifer).    Bred by Luc Lefranc, Ile was imported as a 7-month-old calf for Anne’s special birthday and remains in the herd as a significant breeding female.

We have always had the policy of introducing new young animals to the show scen and the 1998 born youngsters really did us proud. David Cormack, our stockman, manages and presents the cattle to perfectionand proudly led Ryedale Orion and Ryedale Olga to Championships at many of the major national shows. other young Ryedale stock Championships at our local shows. At the 1999 Royal Show we had four first prizes and seven Championships, including Junior Female, Reserve Junior Female and Junior Male. In 2000 our successes continued.

Ryedale Orion   completed a clean sweep of Interbreed Junior Championships at the major British shows in 1999 (Royal Show, Royal Highland Show, Royal Welsh Show and the Great Yorkshire Shows).   A feat never achieved before!   He is now our Junior Stockbull.
