SMOOTH-HAIRED

V (2) 1 Turner’s Ch Marictur Miss Midnight. Beautiful bitch with good head, dark almond eye and correct dentition, nicely set on ears, elegant neck set into excellent well laid shoulders, good length to upper arm, depth and length to rib allowing topline to be level at all times, good rear angulation, moved soundly with drive from rear. BB and Best Veteran. 2 Hunt’s Ch/Ir Ch D’Arisca Class Distinction At Carpaccio. Another quality dog, this time my favourite choc/tan. I preferred the slightly longer upper arm of the winner, lovely masculine head with good eye, mouth and ear set, shoulders well laid giving a good sweep of keel, topline level at all times, well angulated rear, moved well.

P (1) 1 Williams’ Cwmdarhian Mrs Betsey. 8 month b/t puppy with lovely outline, plenty of length and topline kept throughout, typical head with good dark almond eye, correct dentition, and good ear set, length and arch to neck, well laid shoulders giving good sweep of keel, length to upper arm, well ribbed and good rear angulation, still needs to tighten up slightly, but moved very well over such rough ground, very promising. Res BB, BP.

J (3, 2) 1 Hunt’s Am Ch Bessdachs Beam Me Up At Carpaccio (Imp). Imposing dog wth lovely outline and strong masculine head, super front and length to upper arm, well ribbed with level topline, good hindquarters, movement was positive with drive, however, he was almost totally black, no chest spots and hardly any tan on the face, which for me, totally spoilt an otherwise nice dog. Res BD.

OD (1) 1 Hunt’s Lauralee Living Daylights At Carpaccio. Lovely b/t with great head set on a lovely long neck, good sweep of keel, well placed shoulders and length in upper arm, well ribbed with depth and length, strong well angulated rear, movement very positive with drive, liked this dog because of his masculine elegance, not overdone in any way, showed and handled with aplomb. BD and BOB.

PGB(1) 1 Hunt’s Lauralee Miss Chokky Wokey At Carpaccio. Choc/tan who is a bit too much up on the leg for me, good quality head, correct eye and good reach of neck, sufficient keel and good front, topline kept throughout and hind angulation good, front movement more positive on the day as she was going something a little odd on the left hind leg whilst in the ring.

OB(2) 1 Turner’s Marictur Moulin Rouge. Two bitches of completely differing type, liked the quality and overall refinement of winner, good feminine head and well set on ear, sufficient neck and well placed shoulders, topline kept at all times, well angulated fore and aft, movement positive with drive. 2 Rawson’s Ch Rosenket Krystal Singer. This b/t bitch had an exceptional head which unfortunately was affected by a skin condition on the day. Although she was a heavier type than winner, still feminine and eye catching, slightly shorter in upper arm to winner, well ribbed with depth and length, moved well keeping topline throughout.
