2018 Cattle Champion

In 2018 it was a December 2017-born Limousin cross steer calf, shown by J. S. Baillie Co, of Sebay Farm, Tankerness, that took the inter-breed cattle title. The homebred stot was from a Limousin cross cow, sired by Newhouse Colorado. The stot itself was sired itself by Craigatoke Jameson.

The unnamed stot went on to be shown at the 2018 Thainstone spectacular that year, held on August 24.

John Wight, from Bigger, was the interbreed cattle judge at the 2018 County Show, of his winner he said: “He’s the best calf I’ve seen for some time. He was extraordinary – how he stood, his back end, top line, a lovely head and excellent on his legs. He was an outright champion.”
