Thankfully there was a better entry here in terms of both numbers and quality. With just one exception, weight was not an issue in this variety. There seems to be much more consistency in type.

PD
(4) 1 Coxon's D'Arisca Full On. BP, DCC & BOB, Hound Puppy Group 3. Super 8 mth b/t out of the top drawer, loved his style and deportment, super head carriage, has a handsome conical headpiece, had the forehand I was looking for, well filled crook and snug fitting elbows, well balanced in outline and angulation, is well proportioned in terms of height to length, with good ground clearance, firm in topline, stands firm and true in both fore and hindquarters, in excellent jacket and supple skin, moved out soundly with some style, could find nothing to put past him. Was well within the weight limit and will look even better with maturity. 2 Weir's D'Arisca Prince Of Darkness At Ambreglo. Another 8 mth b/t of a similar type, although out of a different litter, has immediate appeal, again liked his development in the forehand, not quite the outline of first and can be a bit proud with his tail, sound enough in movement, plenty to spare with the weight. 3 Dunne's Honig Hans Solo.

JD
(4) 1 Hunt's Carpaccio Red Adair. RCC. High quality s/r of just 12 mths, holds a super outline at the stand, with his firm well conditioned body, has good ground clearance, excellent top and underline, balanced angulation in both fore and hindquarters, well within the weight limit, moved out soundly and was close up to Full On in the challenge, to be picky does not have the same appeal in head and felt that he lacked the spark of Full On. 2 Bastable's Chrishanes Maxwell Edison. 15 mth b/t with immediate appeal, of similar size to first, balanced in outline, although he is well constructed does not have the same development in his hindquarters as first, holds himself well on the move but with not the same degree of soundness. 3 Hall's Man At The Top Asocjacja Dunraggit.

LD
(2) 1 Blackburn-Bennett's Stargang Avenger. R/brindle youngster of 13 mths, well proportioned and with good ground clearance, soundly constructed, has a handsome conical headpiece and dark eye, perhaps too much length of neck, ribbing carried well back, would prefer shorter length of hock and better front feet, very unsettled by the acoustics of the noisy PA system. 2 Shutt's Donnadoon Le Mousquetaire. Fully mature 3 yr b/t of diminutive stature, pleasing proportions and firm outline, liked his well developed forehand construction and ribbing, moved ok but not with the same drive as first.

OD
(3) 1 Coxon's Ch D'Arisca I Do Declare. Fully mature 3 yr b/t with plenty to spare regarding weight limit, long, low and level, of very pleasing type and outline, as to be expected has the development in forechest, ribbing and angulation required to make it to the top, to be picky I would prefer more length in muzzle, moved soundly but lost out to the rising stars for top honours today. 2 Jamison's Ir Ch Barisse Spreads The Majic With Smartdac. Fully mature 4 yr b/t of some appeal with firm, well balanced outline and good ground clearance, at the top of the weight limit, nicely put together with good ribbing carried well back, pleases in firm topline and smooth flow to underline which gained him his place over third, would prefer to see less length in the hocks. 3 Kent's Lokmadi Ocean's Eleven.

PB
(7) Lovely class of quality pups. 1 Midgley's Benzden Tuscan Rose. Quality b/t of 9mths, of lovely type, holds a firm outline with good ground clearance, is well balanced an proportioned, most appealing in head/muzzle, good forehand construction and well ribbed back, sound easy mover. 2 Coxon's D'Arisca Fully Fashioned. B/t, 9 mth litter sister to Full On, again appealed for type, has excellent development of forechest with prominent pro sternum and well filled crook, would like to see more length in her muzzle, preferred the more compact outline and better lay back in shoulder of first. 3 Morrison's Benzden Clinique Happy.

JB
(3) 1 Kent's Lokmadi On Silent Wings. Top quality red of 15 mths with immediate appeal, way within the weight limit, beautiful head and expression, of excellent construction all through, very pleasing in her forechest, holds an excellent outline on the move, tended to sink into herself at the stand, moved easily in profile, but was slightly wide moving away. 2 Hall's Most Charming Girl Asocjacja Dunraggit. Most attractive b/t of 16 mths, of similar weight to first but with slightly more ground clearance, looks most attractive at the stand, does not match the angulation or movement of first, I would like to see less length in the hocks. 3 Morrison's Benzden Lovestruck Floral.

PGB
(3) 1 Danter's Demilee Moon Beam At Danterdax. This 20 mth b/t stood out in this class, projected a balanced outline, liked her head and expression, was well constructed with good forechest and ribbing well back, had the top and underline I was looking for, liked her shorter length of hock, moved out the best here. 2 Morrison's Benzden Eesat Tease. Larger framed dark s/r who had good forechest development and the required angulation in the forehand, this was not matched in her hindquarters, therefore tended to ride up in her topline on the go around. 3 Dunne's Honig Little Miss India.

LB
(3) 1 Kent's Lokmadi Paper Tiger. Top class 18 mth b/t, was a stand out here, real Dachshund in miniature, lovely headpiece, good development through the front, with well filled crook, does not need to get any deeper, perhaps would look better with a little more ground clearance, firm in topline and with good sweep to underline, good hindquarter development with well rounded rump. Moved out soundly. 2 Coxon's D'Arisca Be Dazzled. Fully mature 3 yr s/r, slightly lower to ground than first, liked her construction with well laid shoulders and return of upperarm, had good bone and feet, however, she did not hold the firm outline or flow of underline as first. 3 Weir's D'Arisca Dark Dahlia Of Ambreglo.

OB
(3) 1 Hunt's Carpaccio Crimson Ribbon. CC. 2 Coxon's D'Arisca Damsel In A Dress. RCC. Both high class soundly constructed bitches of similar size and weights, well within the limit. Both have the constructional attributes one is looking for, the determining factor between the two here was poise deportment and soundness of movement. Ribbon is a s/r who holds her outline so well on the go around, Damsel has the distinctive outline and excellent head carriage of her Affix. 3 Kent's Kiswahili Linda Lokmadi.
