Post Graduate Dog or Bitch (3 entries)
| 1st | Burchell FLAVOUR OF TOKAJ ASZU SUCHY LAS VEGAS TO TIVALAKE (IMP POL) This bitch pup is just 6 mths and of course, very much a baby, however I thought she showed much promise. She pleased for type and is nicely balanced; moderate length of neck, short back. Topline just a tad soft right now, rib developing well, firm loin and tail of good carriage. Most attractive head and expression with almond-shaped eyes, ears set high and scissor bite. She stands well naturally on very good feet and moved well on the go around. Best Puppy. |
| 2nd | Hunter SERENTAN CASTOR 11 mth old dog who has plenty to like. Balanced in outline with medium length of neck, firm level topline, pleasing rib and muscular loin. Broad skull, moderate stop, good eye and ear and correct dentition. Good angles front and rear and he stands true in front. Goes well on the go around and ok on the down and back. Well handled. |

| 1st | Hughes ABACOT INTO THE UNKNOWN JW Just coming up to 3 yrs, this boy was a comfortable winner in this class for me. He pleased for overall type, is compact in outline and was good to go over. Muscular neck of correct length to balance, level topline, well sprung ribs, firm loin and tail of good set and carriage. Attractive head and expression with good eye and ear and correct dentition. Pleasing angles both ends and he stands nice and straight in front on good feet and has a well developed forechest. Moving freely all through with good carriage. |
| 2nd | Ward MELANITTA PALMATA JW 5 yr old who could have made a bit more of himself on the day to his advantage. This lad presented a pleasing outline with correct length of neck to balance, short level back, deep chest, nice spring of rib and muscular loin. Good eye and ear but expression not quite that of winner. He stands well naturally and has nice tight feet. Moving pretty well on the go around. |
