MPD (2,1). 1. MATTHEWs Sonham Chilli Pepper. 6 mths old with correct head and neck. One fault which I am sure the owners know about. He needs to tighten in front but with age should improve. Good top line and depth of brisket. I know he is only young but he needs to settle on the move. 
PD (1). 1. Farrington, Dollydash Defender of Faith. 11 mths old and still very uneasy in the ring. Lovely head and neck. Prefer a touch stronger in front. Good forechest and top line. Good depth of brisket for his tender age. At the moment he is a bit weak in hind quarters and would like to see him improve on the move. 
JD (4,1). 1. Russell & Hutchings, Russell Leeves. Good size and shape with pleasing head and neck. .good front with the right amount of bone and level top line. Good in hind quarters and excellent jacket. I don’t like the high tail when moving but otherwise moving well. 2. Jackson & Jackson Elderkine Special Brew. Larger than winner but all in proportion. Good head and expression. Good ear set with correct front but he needs to strengthen in pasturns. Good top line and hind quarters. Pleasing in the most on the move. 3. Farrington Dollydash Defender of Faith.

LD (5,2). 1 Hunt’s Weinacht Larch At Drakkina JW. Pleasing 5yr old with excellent head and neck, correct front and feet. Good top line, depth of brisket and rib cage.

PB (2). 1. Hunt’s Drakkina Wirenth. Good breed type with typical head and neck. Good front. At this early stage in life she is a touch shallow in brisket for me.

For me one of the best classes I have judged in a very long time. I loved all three. 
OB (4,1) 1, BCC, BOB, G1. Howlett & Phillips Ch Tendrow Makes the Right turn JW. Such a beautiful bitch with very little for me to say except wow! Correct head, front assemble, body, top line and hind quarters. Just a joy to watch on the move. I was thrilled to see her win the hound group. 2, Res BCC. McCalmont’s Ch Silvae Sky Dancer. There is nothing I can say that I didn’t like about her. She could on another day have changed places. 3. Mccalmont & & Hanney Ch Silvae Time After Time at Bronia. This bitch that although was third there was no other reason for her being third is that I only had one first place card. Congratulations to all three handler/owners on a surburb class.
