MINIATURE SMOOTH HAIRED Thank you to exhibitors for this wonderful entry with so few absentees, with this, must go a very big thank you to my stewards, who looked after me so well. Good stewards are worth their weight in gold, so thank you very much. It was a pity the weather was not kinder but at least it was not raining. The ring was large but very much a field, it could have done with being cut, but they are hounds and should have been able to cope with the unevenness, but then I suspect had they been loose they would have galloped over it. It is seven years since I last judged the breed, over these years there have been improvements, heads were not so snippy nor were there the round poppy eyes, mouths were correct, just the odd dirty canine. Front movement was good but rear movement left much to be desired, it looked O.K. in profile but watched going away, there was no drive and was all over the place. It was a pity there was no minor puppy classes as, the puppy classes were large so some nice puppies, who have some growing up to do, went home cardless. Some were a little lacking in bone and tight feet but none were skinny.

PD (12,1) 1 Mitchell’s Bronia Calvino red/brindle, he has great bone and tight bunched feet, good ribbing excellent angulation front and rear. Masculine head and expression with dark almond eyes. Level topline both standing and moving. Lots of potential here when he gets his act together and shows off his many attributes. One who should go all the way, to the top. 2 Coxon’s D’Arisca Due Diligence, did not have the bone of the winner and needs to strengthen in rear movement. Has a masculine head with a good reach of neck, ribbing is carried well back, the top line is level at all times, he looked good in profile but his rear movement was erratic when going away. 3 Bourne’s Yaapeet Uriel another B/T with much to like about him and very much like second but again it was his rear movement, which let him down.

JD (8, 2) 1 Shelton’s Barisse High Endeavour R.C.C. Red/Brindle he has a good head and masculine expression, dark eye. Good reach of neck, which runs into well place shoulders. Prominent forechest, with good length of keel, nicely rounded rear, his movement was good and he kept a level topline. One who could gain his title. 2 Mead’s Minimead Minisota, red of good make and shape, prominent forechest, good reach of neck, level topline, excellent condition with shiny coat good bone and feet. Another who I would expect to do well as he matures, today he was not quite as positive behind as the winner in rear movement. 3 Salisbury’s Barrantini Aston Martin B/T, thought his front movement was a little hackneyed, but I liked his head and dark eye with his well place shoulders.

PGD (3) 1 Holland’s Zarosa Motivation B/T good head with a dark eye and very well placed shoulders, and this was evident in his good front movement, prominent forechest with a good length of keel, although he looked good moving in profile, he lacked drive. 2 Winchuch’s Brianolf Malachite, unfortunately he and his handler had a nasty experience just before coming into the ring, which unsettled him somewhat, other wise he could have been my winner here. I liked his head and dark eye, his excellent reach of neck, prominent forechest and length of keel, he has well placed shoulders which showed in his good reach in front movement. He has a good rear construction and is well angulated but he did not move as steadily as the winner. 3 Williams Cwmdarhian Mr Magoo B/T. I liked his head, dark eye, he was in good muscular condition, but was a little upright in the front and did not move so well behind.

LD (4,1) 1 MacDonalds Bensarka The Midas Touch a red boy with the best movement of the three, but even so he could strengthen in his rear movement. He has a masculine head with a dark eye, his ribbing is carried well back, topline is level both standing and moving. 2 Shutts Black Passion Of Donndoon excellent front construction with good shoulders reach of neck and prominent forechest, level topline, I would like slightly longer ribbing. 3 Yeoman’s Klynerbyner Vim & Vigour, very dark chocolate, well made exhibit who lost out on hind movement.

OD (8,2) 1 Ergis’ Ch Siouxline Indigo J.W. Sh.CM B/T with a masculine head and expression, dark almond eye, his good reach of neck leads into well place shoulders, prominent forechest, level topline, he is short coupled with good bone and feet. He moved with front extension and drive behind very fit and muscular. Very difficult decision between him and the bitch for B.O.B. but on the day she just seemed a shade more balanced. 2 Ashwell-Carter’s Siouxline Isaac, I thought these two were very alike and on looking in the catalogue I see they are litter brothers. Many of his brothers qualities but could not match his rear movement, lacked drive. 3 Moes Aust /N Z Ch Deercroft Discoverer At Carpaccio good front construction and in excellent condition but was let down by his hind movement.

PB (20,3) A lovely class with many very nice babies who were out of the cards, their day will come. 1 Shukers Yewlitt Amelia B/T B.P.I.B. A most promising baby, feminine head, dark eye, excellent bone and tight feet, short coupled with ribbing carried well back, prominent forechest and good length of keel. Well made rear, which enabled her to move freely. I shall look forward to seeing her at future shows. 2 Ergis Siouxline Cinderella red, who was very close up to one, in construction but on the day I felt the winner was just that more positive in rear movement, this young lady has good shoulders a prominent forechest good length of keel, a level top line at all times. Very feminine with good ring presence. 3 Mitchell’s Bronia Cinzia litter mate to winner of puppy dog, who like him is very well made, but like him needs to settle to the task in hand.

JB (10,3) 1 Coxon’s D’Arisca Dark & Delicious B/T small but neat young lady, possibly a little short of bone, feminine head with a dark eye. Good shoulders and spring of rib, which are carried well back, correct length of keel. Kept a level topline both standing and moving, which was good for a youngster on the ground. 2 Watkinson’s Manakoora Pandaus, close up to winner in make and shape, but was not as positive in her rear movement, otherwise a nice exhibit. 3 Young’s Hartlake Marjory Seedling At Youngline B/T, who I have seen at many local shows and have always liked her, so it was good to have the opportunity to go over her, she is very well made in her front and rear construction with a lovely feminine head, thought to begin with that she would be my winner but she was not moving as well behind as I know she can.

PGB (10,4) 1 Palin’s Rodima Nickle ‘N’ Dime For Sanmik. Very pleasing red/brindle with a well constructed front and rear. Prominent forechest, excellent ribbing and length of keel. Well made quarters, she presented a balanced picture, moved out in front and well behind. 2 Burton’s Swingletrees Heaven –Leigh, red who was close up to one but not quite such a balanced picture, very feminine head carried proudly, ribbing goes well back, she had a level topline at all times. 3 Walker’s Brianolf Mystical Gem For Dorian, red with a well constructed front, feminine, dark eye, level topline, prominent forechest with good ribbing. Her rear movement let her down, as she was rather wide.

LB (9,4) 1 Salisbury’s Brocklewood Babycham J.W. Quality red, who was very well handled to enable her to show off her many qualities. I liked every thing about her, and seriously considered her for the R.C.C.. Feminine head excellent construction both fore and aft, level topline at all times, she just lost out to the R.C.C. winner by a whisker. 2 Rouse’s Dvordac Kiss The Future, shaded red, feminine, nicely constructed and similar in many ways to the winner, but did not match her rear movement. 3 Melbourne’s Barratini Hubble Bubble At Melriding B/T well made feminine Young lady, who looked good standing, but was rather all over the place on the move.

OB (8,2) 1 Hunt’s Ch Carpaccio Royal Parade C.C. B.O.B. Elegant bitch full of quality, lovely feminine head with a dark oval eye, prominent forechest, ribbing carried well back, keel of correct length, very well angulated front and rear, which allows her to move with extension in front and drive behind, excellent bone and feet. I liked every thing about her. 2 Callows Garthorne Gazinia, R.C.C. Red who was close up in construction, but was not quite as positive behind on the move, but just had the edge over the limit winner for the reserve. I am sure her day will come. 3 Robinson’s D’Arisca Indulge The Dream At Inkel, very feminine red, with well place shoulders, ribbing carried well back, quarters well made close up to second but not so good going away.
