Thank you for a lovely entry in both numbers and quality, the bitch challenge was very closely contested as I was happy with all of the class winners, a very satisfying morning with the breed, thanks to my stewards Ian and Pauline Sidgwick. SBD/B 5(2) 1. Dickinson’s Derdledash Skyfall at Dakotadax JW. 17 months bitch in lovely coat, she is top size but full of quality and with excellent conformation, quality head and eye, scored in front action here, later won a good Post Graduate class, she can do a lot of winning, BSpB. 2. Whittaker’s Bramalodge Beeswing. 2 years, another very good bitch, a size smaller than the winner but not in her best coat, very good top-line and rear action, a lot to like in her. 3. Sirrell’s Hopewood Dream Come True. PD 2(1) 1. Davies’ Atahira Finale. 11 months red, a long dog who is still loose in top-line but has a clean outline with good angulation, I would prefer a longer ribcage, head needs time to develop. JD 7(2) 1. Phillips’ Tendrow Will To Succeed. 13 months, lovely proportions and very good coat, very well made at both ends and scored here in his front action, good head and eyes, well ribbed, RDCC. 2. McCalmont’s Silvae Bystander. 13 months, slightly longer than the winner for balance, very good outline, shown in excellent coat, very good head and expression, I preferred proportions of winner who was slightly cleaner in front action but these are two top quality youngsters. 3. Akehurst’s Tendrow Down To The Wire. PGD 6(0) 1. Mountford’s Incordemeo Midnight. 14 months old, black/tan, best for quality and movement in this class, excellent coat, bone and angulation, needs firming up, foreface a little long. 2. Matthews’ Sonham Fire Cracker. 2 years old who has a lovely head and expression and good coat, lovely size, loses his shape on the move and front action could be better. 3. Clayton-Smith’s Cairparavel Hartnell. LD 6(1) 1. Rowe’s Boloria Goodnight Mr Tom JW. 20 months, scored in size and front action to win this class, well ribbed back, good movement and top-line, body coat ok but could have harder furnishings. 2. McCalmont’s Covellyn’s Cecil at Silvae (imp CHE). 16 months, bigger dog with superb coat and good ribbing, I liked his head and expression, very good top-line and rear, needs time to firm up in front. 3. Christie’s Cloudside Valentino at Decalleigh JW. OD 6(1) 1. Howlett/Phillips’ Ch. Tendrow Malibar JW. 2 year old in beautiful coat and in hard condition, excellent head and eye, well ribbed back, could be a little cleaner through his withers but a very good dog. 2. Akehurst’s Boloria All Spice. 4 year old, I liked his size and proportions and moved well when he settled, just a touch heavy in body which detracted from his neck line. 3. Seath’s Ch. Sunsong Dare To Dream. VD 3(1) 1. Phillips’ Ch. Royal Pepper’s Vice Versa (imp FIN). 7 year old in great form and carried himself well scoring in underline here, I loved his type and balance, top quality, I thought he was outstanding, DCC, BV & BOB, his progeny also did well I see. 2. Norman’s Ch. Silvae Klansman. 9 years old and pressed the winner hard, lovely quality all through, I gather I gave him a CC in his career and pleased to see that he has retained all of his qualities. PB 3(1) 1. Binks’ Tannahill Lovely Day. 9 months of lovely type and beautiful hard crisp coat, feminine head, good eye, scored in movement and top-line, can firm up a little in top-line and this is where her litter sister scored to win Best Puppy. 2. Sirrell’s Hopewood Dream Come True. 10 months without her coat today, of very good type but needs to shed some puppy fat which detracts from top-line and front action. JB 9(1) 2 lovely bitches at the top and both should go on to greater things. 1. McCalmont’s Silvae Fan The Flames. 13 months, won a tight decision on her ground clearance and top-line on the move, can firm up a little in front but she is full of quality. 2. Paterson’s Brumberhill Biscuit to Ambiesque. 16 months, I preferred her for size and front action but not quite the ground clearance of the winner, lovely ribbing and coat, I think a little less weight would enhance her, top quality. 3. Binks’ Tannahill Day By Day. BP. PGB 6(0) 1. Dickinson’s Derdledash Skyfall at Dakotadax JW. Repeat. 2. Chambers’ Hototo’s Village Gossip. 2 year old, took my eye on the first circuit for her balance, she is very good to go over but a little less weight would benefit her, very good front action but not the drive behind of the winner. 3. Whittaker’s Bramalodge Beeswing. LB 8(0) Excellent class for depth of quality. 1. McPherson/Paterson’s Brumberhill Barbed Wire. 3 years, in great coat and has excellent movement, well ribbed and with hard top-line, scored in carriage to win this good class, later won RBCC from a lovely line up. Pughe/Fraser’s Bystock Blue Orchid. 2 years old, I liked her size and proportions and she is very correct on the move but could have a little more confidence in her carriage, lovely size, excellent coat and very good head and eye. 3. Arthurs’ Elderkine’s Austin. OB 6(1) Excellent class. 1. McCalmont’s Ch. Silvae Time After Time at Bronia TAF. Beautiful type and proportions, in great coat, she scored in neckline and ground clearance here, beautiful head and eye, went well when she settled and won BCC.
2. Howlett/Phillips’ Ch. Tendrow Makes The Right Turn JW. 4 year old, another top quality bitch in super coat, just a touch heavier in body but scored in underline to win this place. 3. Rowe’s Ch. Boloria Nice ’n Spicy JW. VB 1(0) 1. Rowe’s Ch. Boloria’s Trick or Treat JW VW. 8 year old, going round the ring like a youngster, lovely size with good ribbing and correct underline, full of quality, crisp coat, she has done well for me before and still in good form, she and the veteran dog were great ambassadors for the breed.
