If I am honest, I find this the most challenging variety of the breed to judge. Hind action can be difficult to assess if there is a lot of feathering and a long coat on the undercarriage can make a well balanced dog look low to the ground. In general, I was impressed with the physical soundness of most of the exhibits. All of the dogs were clean and well presented. I would urge breeders to pay particular attention to temperaments as a number were certainly timid and looked rather apprehensive. I did have some really high quality class winners. Thank you all for your support and it was lovely to hear applause for the winners at the conclusion of judging. My lovely Steward did an excellent job of keeping me in order.

1st Place 1455 - Ch/Ir Ch Ralines Sazerac (Miss Woodvine-Shone). He provided me with a good start to the day as I mentally graded him as CC quality. Very handsome and really pleasing to handle with his excellent forehand, pronounced breast bone, good length of rib and excellent topline. Moved out well with good head carriage and some drive from the rear. Best Veteran.

Very smart and presents a very good profile on the table where he is pleasing to handle as he had a good forehand with well placed elbows, prominent breastbone and good keel. Good ground clearance. Moved out well, he’s just a little proud of his tail but I forgave him that as it was an indication of his good temperament.
