PD (1) 1 Trunjey’s Juniperwood King Of Kings, 9 months tri, liked his conformation, very well put together & you can only get better, movement as expected of a puppy, very nice head & expression. Ears need to lift, needs a competent handler to get the best out of him. BP. PGD (4,2a) 1 Moore’s Manordeifi Pathfinder, 10 months tri, very smart young man who carried himself well, good head, which is balanced, good eye & ears correct, very inquisitive expression & should have a bright future, shall follow his show career with interest. RBD; 2 Wallis’ Norfield White Knight, very attractive s/w, heavier built than 1, good angulations & reach of neck, liked his head, nice outline & moved positively. LD (2) 1 Wallis’ First Knight at Norfield, tri, nicely marked, would like a bit more neck & a better front, ear not so high, moved OK; 2 Trundley’s Lilymead A Gamamnon, b/m, very nice head, good eye. Colour is not his fortune, too many black patches & is not steady enough on the move. OD (3,1) 1 Wallis’ Norfield Soul Mate, well known s/w who always gives all. He had put on a wee bit of weight over his shoulders which affected his front action. His head is well balanced & has a gentle eye, ear carriage correct. BD; 2 Griffith’s Ch Alopex Highland Fling, it’s quite a while since this dog has been out & boy did it show. He was just full of himself & I had to ask his handler to take him around again to settle him down but it did not work. He behaved like a naughty teenager, not like a mature 5 year old, still has ring presence & kept his topline, very cheeky expression.
PB (3) My heartbreak class. 1 Cambell’s Glencorrie Dusky Diva, 10 months tri, very fine boned, has enough substance, nice head & a good ear carriage, moved well; 2 Trundley’s Juniperwood Final Affair, beautiful tri, so well put together, gorgeous expression & a lovely outline. What a shame she is not happy in the ring, she needs more training & her confidence to be built up, I do hope her owner can overcome this problem; 3 Burton’s Glencorrie Sunsationells. PGB (4,1) 1 Stilgoe’s Foxearth Fatri Beauty at Yeldust, this bitch & handler were completely new to me & a beautiful. Beautiful s/w, so elegant, gorgeous expression & so sound, correct shoulder & a strong well muscled rear which makes her well balanced, moved like a dream & her outline was stunning. BOB; 2 Moore’s Manordeifi Penny Blue, pretty b/m, her colour is rather dark & she is rather heavily marked, she could also lose some weight; 3 Trunley’s Lilymead Alisa. LB (2,1) 1 M Silvadora, b/m, nice shape, good head & ear carriage, moved very well. OB (2) 1 Moore’s Manordeifi Silver Dawn, b/m, I cannot understand why she has not been made up, sound as a pound with a beautiful head & expression, her movement is good but her handler has to watch her topline on standing. RBB; 2 Burton’s Ch Glencorrie Begorgeous, very small tri who is altogether too fine, receding skull although she moves quite well.
