I should very much like to thank this wonderful Committee for inviting me to judge at this well organised show and for their terrific hospitality. My stewards were first class and the exhibitors were very sporting, even though a few managed to miss their class. Thank you for this excellent entry, I enjoyed every minute. 
VD (2, 1) 1 Russell's Foxearth Fashion Guru For Koczkodan.   Very smart shaded s/w with lovely head, dark rye, good reach of neck, deep chest, well sprung ribs, correct shoulder.Well muscled and moved with power and reach. 
PD (2, 1) 1 Bell & Cowling's Koczkodan Nostromo.  Well presented.  Well balanced head, dark eye, good length of neck, good front. Would prefer slightly better lay of shoulder and topline, still needs to tighten. Moved freely. 
LD (2) 1 Norman's Seanua Signature. Smart s/w and certainly looks the part standing. Lovely head, dark eye, good length of neck, correct front and shoulder.  Well ribbed, good topline, well angulated rear. Let down by very sloppy front and rear movement. 2 Hayward's Foxearth Final Countdown.  Appealing head, dark eye, good neck and excellent shoulder. Topline ok, but appears to be sloping when standing because of over handling and fall-away is rather steep.  Another one let down my awful movement. 
OD (5, 2) 1 Trundley's Blamorder Back To The Future. CC. Standing, this lovely clear coloured  b/m shouts quality. Fabulous outline with correct well balanced head, dark expressive eyes,  lovely length of neck, correct topline, well angulated shoulder, good front, deep chest,  well ribbed. Rear movement true with power, front movement has good reach but rather loose in pastern. 2 Cole's Ch Sturtmoor Dream Of Kasvelyn. Res CC. High quality S/W.  Lovely head with fabulous expression. Good length of neck, okay front, well angulated shoulder, correct topline, well muscled.  Moved ok. Well presented. 3 Leach's Manordeifi Dionysus At Hilltarn. 
PB (3, 1) 1 Russell's Koczkodan Serenity. BP. Very smart tri presenting a lovely outline. Correct head with neat dark eye giving the desires expression. Correct ears, super length of neck, well angulated shoulders, lovely topline, deep chest, well ribbed, moved smoothly. 2 Trundley's Juniperwood My Dream. Well constructed  b/m of different type. Coat of good colour and texture. Head still needs to develop, but well balanced with neat expressive eyes and correct ears. Good neck, excellent shoulders, super front. Correct topline, well ribbed, moved very well with good reach and power at rear. 
PGB (2) 1 Trundley's Sturtmoor Klarissants Kiss At Juniperwood. Well constructed tri with beautiful head. Eyes dark but a fraction round.  Excellent front, shoulder and topline, deep chest, well ribbed, well muscled rear. Moved truly in all directions. 2 Norman & Theobald's Seanua Softly Softly.  Striking s/w. Nice head, dark eye and alert expression.  Super length of neck, ok shoulders, well ribbed, correct topline. Movement needs to tighten. 
LB (3, 1) 1 Hartley's Foxearth Finish Spirit At Jimjack ShCM. Res CC. What a stunner and so unlucky to meet her mother in the challenge. Very stylish tri in super  gleaming coat and in lovely hard condition. Beautiful classic outline, lovely head, eye and expression, correct well angulated shoulder, good front, deep chest, correct topline, well angulated rear. Moved as a true Smooth should with good reach in front and power at rear and displaying minimum effort. 2 Trundley's Juniperwood Joyful. S/w of good type, but a little too cobby for me. Nice head, dark well shaped eye, neck a fraction short, well angulated shoulder, deep chest and correct front. Excellent jacket. Moved truly with purpose. 
OB (6, 2) 1 Hayward's Ch Clingstones Hot Shot At Foxearth (Imp Fin). CC, BOB. This lady is very special and is handled to perfection. Meets the standard in every detail, plus some! There is nothing I would change and the best Smooth I have had the honour to judge for many years. I have to say she is up there with the very best smooths I have ever seen (and I go back a long way!). Standing she is a picture and moving she is a joy to behold and her clever handler moves her at the speed a smooth should be going at, which displays her precise and accurate movement. I was delighted that she won the top award of BIS. An accolade that a Smooth of this calibre deserves. 2 Lusty's Juniperwood Just A Dream.   Smart tri with lovely head and expression. Excellent neck, good front and shoulders, deep chest, well angulated rear. Moves well but looses topline on the move. 3 Roden's Ch Fortune Cookie From Breckamore.
