	MPD (2,1) 1 Kay’s Kaytian The Suncaller BP. 
	Pleasing youngster moved well when settled. Well shaped head, lovely dark 
	eye. Lovely length of neck and shoulders well placed. Deep in chest and 
	level topline. A pleasure to award him BP JD (3,2) 1 Corominas Almarxils 
	Diego For Ruichango. Youngster of good proportions. Nicely placed shoulders, 
	correct turn of upper arm, balanced in head and good eye shape and colour. 
	YD (1,0) 1 Marston Teal’s Lordscairnie Dubious Love. Overall of good 
	proportions. Good reach of neck. Body moderately long, short over the loin. 
	Moved well. LD (2,1) 1 Kirkwood’s Beetlejuice Vitoraz At Helydon (Imp CZE). 
	Excelled in movement. Chest well developed. Shoulder and upper arm of 
	correct proportions. Balanced head. Neck strong and muscular. OD (1,0) 1 
	Blackburn’s Stargang Plutonium CC. This boy caught my eye when stacked he 
	showed his full potential balanced in head with good eye colour, Shoulders 
	well laid back with correct turn of fore arm. Correct depth of keel. Good 
	quarters both fore and aft, moved with ease around the ring. I was pleased 
	to hear that this was his 3rd CC giving him is well deserved crown. 
	Unfortunately in the challenge his usual handler was not available so he 
	didn’t give his all. CD (1,0) 1 Thorn Andrews Ch Drakesleat Gud To Go. 
	Quality dog well deserving of his title. Balanced in head Strong neck 
	following through to shoulders well placed. Chest deep. Correct depth of 
	keel sitting nicely at the top of the forelegs. Loin short and strong. Moved 
	well. VD (1,0) 1 Kirkwood-Emery’s Ch Helydon Laird Loki JW. RCC BV. Another 
	worthy of his title and unlucky to come up against my winner in the 
	challenge and I’m sure they will change places in the future. Well 
	proportioned dog, Classic head shape with good eye colour and shape. Neck 
	long clean and strong. Correct length of back with short strong loin. Good 
	depth of chest and well ribbed. Moved easily around the ring. SBDB (2,0) 1 
	Sieminski’s Dajean Surely A Vision, 2 very similar girls, I just preferred 
	the shape of head on 1. Again body of correct proportions. Both girls with 
	the correct ration of body length to length of loin. Making a balanced 
	picture . Each could change places at any other time as I’m sure they will 
	2nd Rose’s Barratini Song And Dance with Rosencrantz as I have said very 
	similar to one with the same comments it was just a preference for the head 
	on 1 MPB (3,2) 1 Marston Teal’s Lordscairnie Peaceful Love. Feminine bitch. 
	A bit overwhelmed a t first but moved well when settled. Nicely shaped head 
	shoulder well placed with good return of upper arm. Well ribbed. Short over 
	the loin. PB (3,2) 1 Mills-Jones Carlita Jellie Baby. Still very raw at the 
	moment. Feminine bitch with pleasing head. Balanced in length of body with 
	short loin. Correct rear angulation. Just needs to tighten up on the front. 
	JB (6, 1) 1 Kirkwood’s Helydon Vexy Vixen BJ, Nicely put together bitch. 
	Well shaped head, neck clean and strong. Good depth of keel. Body well 
	proportioned. Moved with ease around the ring. 2 Dance’s Emem Hazel Sunshine 
	JW. Another nice bitch I understand that she was a little spooked in the 
	ring but this certainly didn’t detract from her, Once again a classic head, 
	front deep and strong. Nice amount of bone. Good angulation both front and 
	rear, 3 Kirkwood-Emery’s Heldon Tartan Talula JW YB (2,0) 1 Marston Teal’s 
	Lordscairnie Love To Dazzle, Good overall type still a little raw at the 
	moment but has all the attributes for the breed. Body of good proportion. 
	Pleasing in head, good depth of chest. Level topline moved well.2 
	McDermott’s Bardot’s Brigitte (Imp SWE). Slightly longer in the foreface 
	than one which was my deciding factor on placing her. Once again shoulders 
	well laid with good upper arm return. Chest well developed. Moved well. PGB 
	(4,1) 1 Kirkwood’s Helydon Vexy Vixen, 2 Dance’s Emem Hope For Sunshine JW. 
	Pleasing bitch, good over the shoulder and nice length of body. Head of good 
	proportions. Close up to one moved well. 3 Stephenson’s Bothlyn Sweet Missy 
	At Wistex LB (1,0) 1 Stephenson’s Molloney Winnie Tergames At Wistex Clean 
	neck and shoulder, shoulder well placed with correct turn of upper arm. Good 
	length of body. Chest well let down. Slightly taller on the leg. Just not as 
	steady on the move with front action but this may well have been down to the 
	grass. OB (3,0) 1 Stephenson’s Wistex Taking It Easy RCC, Very typey girl. 
	Love head proportions, dark eye. Strong clean neck following through to good 
	shoulder placement. Correct depth of chest and good forefront. Nice length 
	of body and short loin. Well ribbed Unlucky to come up against my winner. 2 
	Blackburn’s Stargang Sapphire And Steel very close to my winner today and I 
	was spoilt for choice between these two who could change places at any time. 
	Again a very classical head, clean neck and shoulders. Ribs well developed. 
	Nice front and good rear angulation. Moved well. 3 Kirkwood’s Helydon 
	Quickstep Queeni CB (1,0) 1 Thorn Andrews Ch Drakesleat Too Gud To Be True 
	CC BOB. What a lovely bitch and I was not surprised to hear of all her 
	achievements. Lovely shaped head, good eye shape and colour. Keel well let 
	down. Strong in breast bone. Body moderately long and strong over the loin. 
	Good rear angulation. Took herself around the ring holding her topline at 
	all times. VB (1,0) 1 Mallinson’s Drakesleat Have A Yen For You feminine 
	bitch, 9 yrs old and certainly didn’t show it on the move. Finer bitch all 
	over but still with the correct shape essentials needed.
