PD (0). JD (1) 1 Evans’ Southcombe Starman, b/m, pleasing head, good reach of neck & balanced in body, moved & showed well. PGD (5) 1 Griffiths’ Alopex Matt Finish, tri, very nice head, pleasing eye & expression, good reach of neck, good conformation & well balanced, moved & presented well. At that in between stage at the moment but with maturity should have a good future; 2 Moore’s Manordeifi Pathfinder, tri, very nice head & correctly placed eye giving the desired expression, good body shape & balanced. Could be more positive on the move; 3 Wallis’ Freejack First Knight at Norfield. OD (4) 1 Lister’s Ch Eridor Im Mr Blu at Newarp, it is not too difficult to understand why this clearly coloured b/m holds its title, clean head with well rounded muzzle, flat skull, good ear carriage & correctly shaped & placed eye, well balanced & correct in conformation, this shows in his movement, as excellent reach at the front, sadly lacking in many of the Rough Collies, & drive from the back, a pleasure to watch on the move. BD, RBOB; 2 Wallis’ Norfield Soul Mate, upstanding s/w, pleasing head with nice eye & expression, good ear carriage, all male with plenty of substance, has a good body shape, moves & presents himself well.
