1^st

Adshead AFONBACH SYRAX
Two promising 7 mth old bitch pups competed here who turned out to be littermates. My winner was this girl who presented a pleasing outline, appealed for type and was good to go over. Moderate length of neck, level topline, rib developing nicely, muscular loin and tail good for set and carriage. Feminine headpiece with moderate stop, flat cheeks and correct dentition. Eye a little rounder than preferred. Soundly constructed both front and rear and moved true and with good ground coverage. Super temperament. Best Puppy.

2^nd

Warren AFONBACH DREAMFYRE AT SHORROCKS
Many of the same comments apply to this youngster and they certainly are of a type. I preferred the eye shape on this girl but she just needs to firm up a tad in topline. Another who is well constructed and moved freely with good drive from the rear.

1^st	Tester GINGAFING FORGET ME NOT 3 yr old bitch who won this class quite comfortably. She pleased for type and presented a well balanced outline with medium length of neck, level topline, lovely ribbing, muscular loin and tail of good set and carriage. Attractive, clean-cut head with good eye and ear and scissor bite. Soundly built all through and therefore good to go over; moving out with good self carriage. Well handled.
2^nd	Smith TOLLISTY COULDN'T CARELESS 17 mth old bitch. A slighter girl than the winner and somewhat scopier with more neck. Feminine head and expression with good eye and ear and correct scissor bite. She stands nice and straight in front but would like to see a tad more breadth throughout. Moving true on the down and back and pretty good on the go around. Another very well handled.
3^rd	Tester GINGAFING AINT NO WAY

Open Dog or Bitch (5 entries, 1 absent)

1^st	Westwood EUSANIT EVER FALLEN IN LOVE 2 yr old bitch who I thought an excellent type and she was lovely to go over. Quality headpiece with super expression; clean-cut skull of good breadth, moderate stop, excellent eye and ear, flat cheeks and correct dentition. Moderate length of neck, topline ok but can slacken at times, well sprung ribs which are carried well back, muscular loin and tail good for both set and carriage. Well laid shoulders, straight forelegs, nice tight feet and firm, muscular hindquarters with well let down hocks. Moving soundly all through with excellent carriage. BOB.
2^nd	Adshead AFONBACH WINTER IS COMING JW 5 yr old dog who is completely different to the winner and out of a much bigger mould but he has so much to like and was good to go over given his correct construction. All male and shows himself off to advantage. Neck of correct length to balance, firm topline, nice spring of rib, strong loin and tail of good set and carriage. Pleasing head with masculine expression; good eye and ear and scissor bite. Stands well naturally and moves true with drive from the rear. Reserve BOB.

3	Westwood EUSANIT EVER FALLEN IN LOVE So feminine, liked her size and compact outline. Feminine wedge shaped head, alert and keen, well developed through the body, moving out soundly with the typical springy step.
