I was very pleased to see that size has come down. Temperaments were excellent, and teeth clean. The heads on some exhibits were too broad with round eyes, and many moved close behind. However, I was more than happy with my winners.

MPD (1) 1 Burke & Manston s Loggeta Good Vibrations. B/T. Long and low, good head, long neck on good shoulders. Good turn of stifle, strode out well.

PD (3) 1 Metcalfe s Metadale Macquarie. S/R. Nice size, good head and eye. Correct shoulders and well ribbed body. Moved very soundly and with drive. A very happy boy, will do well. B.P. 2 Jordan & Nightingale s Rodima Dark Lord. B/T. Bigger lad but very well constructed. Moved well. Carrying too much weight. 3 Chapman s Melminds Electrical Storm.

JD (5) 1 Swann & Roberts’ Ch.Swansford Henrikador. S/R. Very sound, good head and eye. Plenty of forechest and good shoulder placement with tight elbows. Good spring of rib. Good length of ribbing with short loin. Firm topline and strong, well muscled hindquarters which he used to power round the ring. Good front extension. Parallel movement front and rear. C.C. & B.O.B. Pleased to hear he was in the final 6 in the Group. 2 Edwards & Pankhurst’s Neropa Ace of Spades at Danward. B/T. Very nice type. Good head and eye. Well ribbed body, with well angulated hindquarters. Moved out well. 3 Boyle s Brianolf Hi Falutin at Zarcrest.

PGD (4) 1 Lawrence s Peverleigh Solo Vision. B/T. Nice size. Gave a good profile. Good head, excellent shoulders, good keel and length of ribbing. Moved with drive. 2 Brearley & Ramsden’s Darkfell Saracen of Xanadax. B/T. Big heavy lad. Good front assembly. Needs to lose a few pounds to advantage. 3 ly considered in the challenge, but thought she just needs another couple of months to mature. She will be hard to beat next year. 2 Mitchell & Hanney’s Swansford Viennadora of Bronia. S/R. Very nice type. Good head and neck. Well ribbed body, with good topline. Moved well and very well handled. 3 Booth & Elsley’s Darsoms Zarrival with Abbalongdat.

PGB (5) 1 Lawrence s Peverleigh Another Vision. S/R. Good head, well placed shoulders. Good length of body and excellent ribbing. Moved soundly. 2 Wedge’s Dolan Valentine Dream. S/R. Very good to go over. Very soundly constructed, but moved a little wide in front today. 3 Bradley’s Abydachs Heaven Can Wait for Lafrowda.

LB (9) 1 Mitchell’s Darsoms Zerenity at Bronia. B/T. Liked everything about her. Good head and eye. Well arched neck with excellent front and shoulder. Long, well ribbed body, moves very soundly. Very promising. 2 Metcalfe’s Metadale My Way. S/r. Pleasing head. Good shoulders and good length of ribbing. Good top and underlines, and a very good mover. 3 Edward’s & Pankhurst s Danward Symphony.

OB (5) 1 Geeson’s Ch Abydachs Give Me The Future. B/T. A lovely, sound and well balanced bitch with good forechest and excellent shoulders. Good length of ribbing and strong hindquarters. Very firm topline which she kept on the move. CC 2 Warke’s Ch/Ir Ch Darsoms Zanatasia. S/R. Very nice type and well worthy of her titles. Another exhibit so well constructed, and she moves with drive. It was another case of splitting hairs. Res.C.C. 3 Mitchell’s Darsoms Zophisticate of Bronia.
