PGD (1) 1 J Sir Percivale At J

LD (5,2)1 Cawley and King’s Creekpit Black Opal At Summerview JW, appealing head of good length and shape with a lovely eye and expression, ample length of body, firm top line which he holds well on the move, strong and broad rump, well set and carried tail, moved actively with a very stylish carriage. 2 Mccarthy Nagshall Polar Seal, typical head properties, not quite as refined and appealing in outline as the winner and a fraction shorter in body length, well ribbed back, firm top line, decent rump and a sound and active mover. 3 Brooks’ Layways Piper For Lyndarlea JW

OD (9,1)1 Poole’s Findowrie Skye Lord, CC, very stylish exhibit that impressed both on the table and on the move, lean head of good length and shape with a powerful jaw, dark expressive almond-shaped eye, excellent top line, well ribbed back, pleasing fore hand construction with elbows set well under body and strong sturdy quarters, active mover with a good length of stride. 2 Wood’s Wildstar Wrenowned J W, Res CC, perfectly handled and presented, in full coat, long head with good balance between length of muzzle and skull but appearing just a fraction broader in back skull than winner, long body, well ribbed back, short loin, long and slightly sloping croup, super tail set and carriage, just not quite as active and positive in front action as the winner. 3 Bedford’s Wyndax Latte Leo Of Dinkidudlor

MPB (7) 1 Metcalfe’s Metadale Lallique , Res CC and BP, 8 months, some nice puppies in this class but I simply loved this one, exquisite head and eye, super outline and proportions, well laid shoulder, well ribbed back, short loin, grand rump and quarters, an active and true mover, must have a bright future. 2 Brown’s Donnadoon Holly Berry At Garbosa, almost 9 months, grand head and eye, super front and elbow placement, level top line, short loin, strong well developed quarters, active mover, splitting hairs to choose between these two very promising youngsters. 3 Burr’s Burrdach Lucy Locket Mi Lady

PB (3,1) 1 Norris’ Xemxija Star Struck At Criscan, 11 months, very appealing head properties, good length of body with a firm top line, well set and carried tail, strong quarters, quite active on the move but lay of shoulder and set of elbow could be better. 2 Brooks’ Lyndarlea Muffin, 9 months, an honest youngster with pleasing head properties, fair length of body, firm top line, decent length of rib cage, not quite the flow of outline of the winner and as yet a bit loose in front assembly.

JB (7,1)1 Norton’s Halunke Gabriella), a pleasing pattern and type, good length and balance of head with a correct eye and expression, decent top line with good length of body, best mover in the class. 2 McCarthy’s Nagshall My Fair Maiden, liked her head, eye and expression, not quite the same overall appeal in outline as the winner and not quite as pleasing in front action. 3 King’s Bronia Royal Rose With Kingsdax

YB (3,1) 1 Poole’s Findowrie Lady Georgia, 21 months, super head, eye and expression, muscular neck, firm and level top line, symmetrical and balanced in outline, good length of rib, strong loin, broad rump with well set and carried tail and strong sturdy hindquarters, moved with style and activity. 2 Burr & Abbott’s Burrdach Any Dream Will Do, she has a typical head, eye and expression, not quite as long in body nor as clean in outline as the winner and not quite as impressive on the move.

GB (3) 1 Rees’ Yumares Smart Enough, an overall pleasing exhibit with a typical head, eye and expression, well laid shoulder with elbows placed well under the body, reasonably level back, tidy mover. 2 Green’s Eldmour Electra, pleasing head properties, good length of body, pleasing rump and tail set, just preferred the front assembly and rib cage of the winner. 3 Cooper’s Jumanda's Holly Berry

PGB (5) 1 Norton’s Halunke Casalani, presents a pleasing overall pattern and appearance, well shaped head of good length with a typical eye and expression, good length of body and fair length of rib cage, in good coat and condition, well set and carried tail, would have liked a little more breadth of fore chest and a slightly flatter rump. 2 McCarthy’s Nagshall Daisy Duke, pretty head with an appealing eye and expression, more cobby in appearance than winner and would have preferred a slightly better shoulder placement with a little more length and return of upper arm. 3 Welton’s Chelane Pure Magic

LB (6,1) 1 Shutt’s Chocolate Enchantress Of Donnadoon, stylish appearance with a level top line, moderate length of body, appealing head properties, well developed fore chest with elbows set reasonably well under the body, could perhaps have have been a little more positive and active on the move. 2 Cooper’s Jumanda's Gypsy Silver, little to choose between these two, very typical outline and body proportions, pleasing head properties with correctly positioned and shaped dark eye, just a bit unsettled on the move. 3 Bedford’s Dinkidudlor Janma Janneh At Wynndax

OB (10,1) 1 Goddard’s Ch Minard Krystal Darque, CC & BOB, topped the strongest and most competitive class of the day, very pleasing exhibit to go over being so correct in shape and construction, super front and shoulder, excellent rib cage, grand top line, well finished rump with perfect tail set and carriage, so fluid and free on the move with a super length of stride and drive from her strong rear quarters, I felt that her virtues outweighed the obvious lack of feathering on her tail. 2 Poole’s Findowrie Wine N Roses, quality exhibit of good type, excellent keel and shoulder placement with elbows sitting well under her body, body of moderate length, refined head of good length and balance, really appealing eye shape and expression, muscular neck, firm and level top line, very active and true on the move, just a slight tendency to carry her tail just a little too high at times. 3 Norton’s Halunke Shallimar
