pd (3,1) 1 Bethel’s Hampdach Celebrity. A very raw puppy with real potential. Good forechest, well muscled hindquarters. 2 Starkey’s Carpaccio Top of the Class. Very unsettled on the table, liked his substance.

Have admired him many times from the  rinside. Unsettled on the table. 3 Wilberg and Blackburn-Bennett’s Coupduvent Del Conteverde at Kanix (Imp).

PGD (4) 1 Macdonald’s Carpaccio Black Out at Bensarka. Smart black and tan with hard, clean outline. Well filled front on well cared for feet. 2 Eales and Tite’s Lauralee the X Factor.
