Thanks to the exhibitors for the very good entry & the club for the appointment & hospitality.

In general I was concerned about the lack of muscle on a large number of the exhibits, I appreciate that the weather over the previous months has not helped making grassed areas very wet & at times unusable however, roadwork always builds muscle.

Overall I found the in-depth quality of the bitches rather better than the dogs.

V (6,1a) 1 Gay’s Ch Manordeifi Sapphire Mist at Yagane, b/m bitch. Nice head, eyes &, ears would prefer a little more length of mussel. Well balanced body, moved well with drive. BVIS; 2 Norman & Ratcliffes’ Easy Litening at Seauna, s/w dog of good size but balanced throughout, would have liked more muscle. Good head, eye & ears, which he was reluctant to use. Rather unsettled on the move. PD (0). JD (3) 1 Norman’s Seaua Signature, s/w only just out of puppy. Lovely shape with good turn of stifle, nice head that needs to develop however, time is on his side. Standing he made a lovely picture. On the move he was rather erratic; 2 French’s Breckamore By Design, b/m, good body shape but would prefer a little more length. Nice head but a little broad in backskull, again he is one with time on his side for development. Moved well. PGD (0). LD (7) 1 Trundley’s Blamorder Back To The Future, b/m. Good head, eye & ears that together gave a lovely masculine expression. Good body shape & length with correct turn of stifle. In general a nice colour, his full white collar extends further back along his body than is preferred. Moved very well in all views & with drive. CC; 2 Kennedy’s Ryecomb Bed’Air, s/w. Nice head although a little deep through. Pleasing eye & good ears, which he was reluctant to use. Good body that is well balanced. Moved OK. OD (2) 1 Hayward’s Ch Foxearth Flintab, b/m. Lovely shape & well balanced body. Good head with pleasing eye & ears that he was very reluctant to use. Moved OK. For me today he was just not on top form. RCC; 2 White’s Ch Foxearth Frappuccino, tri. A lovely dog in all aspects, one that I have admired for some time. I judged him 4 years ago & did him very well. Unfortunately today he was very reluctant to make anything of himself, either standing or on the move.

PB (0). JB (6) 1 Theobald’s Seaua Softly Softly, s/w. Good head, eye & ears that produced a lovely feminine expression. Good length of neck onto correct body shape. Standing made a lovely picture that filled my eye. On the move she needs to settle especially when moving away. I will watch her career with interest. RCC; 2 Hartley’s Foxearth Finnish Spirt at Jimjack, tri of similar age to 1. Nice head, eyes & ears providing feminine expression. Good neck & body shape, a little shorter than first body. Moved OK. Another one with time on her side. PGB (7,2a) 1 Forbes’ Willowhurst Vanity, tri. Nice shaped head of correct length, I found her eye a little round, good well used ears. Good length of neck, leading to a balanced body with correct turn of stifle. Moved well; 2 Brown & Seacroft’s Blamorder Back In Town, tri. Good head, eye a little round, good ears. Good body shape, moved OK. I preferred the neck, body & balance of 1. LB (6) 1 Peacock’s Blamorder Back To The Start for Saraneth, tri. Lovely well balanced bitch. Correct head of equal planes, correct eye, ears are a little light but used well giving a nice expression, neck & body well proportioned. Moved well; 2 Norman’s Seanua Serendipity, s/w. Good well balanced head, good eye & ears which she is reluctant to use. Correct length of neck & body is balanced, she obviously enjoys her food. Moved OK. OB (9) A lovely class of quality bitches which was enjoyable to judge. 1 Hayward’s Ch Clingstone’s Hot Shot at Foxearth, tri. A quality bitch in all arears. Excellent head, eye & ears that are well used & together produce a beautiful feminine expression. Good length of neck, leading to a well balanced body, good front & rear angulation. Coat was correct type & in sheen condition. Stood & showed off her attributes at all times. CC, BOB. delighted to see her awarded BIS; 2 Lusty’s Juniperwood Just A Dream, tri. Good head with correct eye & ears. Good length of neck leading to correctly balanced body. Moved well.
