JD 1 Hartleys’ Truthful Titan At Lyrosh, nice d, would have preferred a little more weight on him; 2 McAulays’ D’Arisca Ensor Doone At Elnside, this d tends to stand with elbow out, he really made his handler work hard to get the best out of him. ND 1 Coxons’ D’Arisca Inkel Impresario, this d just caught my eye as he came in the ring, good depth of keel and length of ribbing, nice and low to ground, just needs more time to settle down; 2 Herringtons’ Kathington Chance N Counter, nice head, neck, just a bit loose in shoulders, good deep chest, &length of ribbing, just needs time.
