Thank you for your entries and sportsmanship.   It has been 8 years since I last awarded CC’s in this variety and enjoyed the appointment all the more for that.  General observations include ;  some lacked the desired forechest ,  some displayed more than a slight arched loin  with rumps higher than the withers on the move.   No concerns around body conditioning ,  although in my opinion some would benefit with a little more muscle tone.   Presentation and  temperaments were very good.

Quality promising puppy of correct size with good outline,  he has good ground clearance,  well angulated both ends which he used to move soundly and covered ground well in profile.

2ND - Griffingate I Have A Dream  (Mr JR Rowberry)

Lovely type and quality again, retained his outline on the move once settled ,  I feel handler could get more out of him and he should do well.
