Thank you for a fantastic entry, I really enjoyed my day amongst sporting exhibitors & the atmosphere around the ringside. There were superb exhibits on display, with lots performing to the high standards required & the classes being filled, I would like to have seen better use of the tail in some cases but as we were inside & not out in the field I did forgive some of these exhibits. The quality was extremely high & with close decisions to be made in most classes it did mean that some exhibits sadly did not receive a place card. It was good to see a quantity of the dogs moving out well, on good angles & a jaunty stride, taking these dogs to the top in the classes. Both challenges were very competitive & my CC winners were on form & working hard to top their respective genders. The BOB eventually going to the junior bitch on superb form looking great & moving with the correct tail carriage to attract the birds.
