Puppy Dog or Bitch (4 entries)
1st | Moult & Savory CROFTWELL TICKETY BOO Just shy of 9 months old but already well matured, showing good bone, excellent spring of rib and depth of chest for age. More compact than 2 with shorter couplings and strong loin. Unexaggerated in angulation, with straight front legs and slightly slopingpasterns leading to gorgeous tight feet. Moved straight and true with energy. BP. |
2nd | Burgess MELANITTA SINAMAY I really liked this girl, but pipped to the post on maturity and movement on the day. Wedge- shaped head, with soft, gentle almond eyes that blended with coat colour. Slightly larger and longer than 1, nevertheless balanced and well muscled for age. Goodwidth of thigh, leading to well-turned stifles and let down hocks, whilst at the front well-laid shoulders and elbows held close to the body. I preferred her outline on the stand but in movement she just wasn’t as together as 1. |

1st | Adshead AFONBACH DANCE WITH DRAGONS On the larger side, but a lovely girl similar in quality and conformation to her brother, who beat her to BOB today. A kind and alert expression to her wedge shaped head with moderate stop. Nicely angulated front, balanced with rear. Presented a good outlinewhen standing and on the move, during which she held a steady topline, head carried almost level with the back - though not with as much power or drive as her littermate. |

2nd | Burgess CAMUSMOR KING ROB Near-three year old male with attractive masculine head and expression, and of appropriate bone and size. Beautiful angulation in the forequarters but a smidge straighter in the rear. He moved a little erratically today, which wasn’t quite as positiveas the class winner. |

Open Dog or Bitch (4 entries, 1 absent)
1st | Adshead AFONBACH WINTER IS COMING JW A masculine young man of excellent substance and presented in very good condition. Balanced in angulation fore and aft, with level topline and excellent rear. He took a second to remember what he was doing on the move, but when settled he went soundly,with ground-covering drive and power. BOB. |
2nd | Moult & Savory EUSANIT NAUGHTY BUT NICE FOR CROFTWELL JW This girl exuded toller attitude today - very much on her toes (keeping her handler on hers)! Good substance and coat, and well put together - deep chest, well sprung ribs, straight legs, tight feet and unexaggerated angulation, though longer coupling.She does carry her tail quite high when static, but I can’t deny it was constantly moving! A very tidy mover - jaunty, with clean lines. |
