LONG HAIRED
JD (1) 1 Sutton’s Damai Master Benedict, B/T of good type. Nice head, good length of ribbing, although I would prefer more length in the first and second thigh to balance the quarters however he used them well to produce good drive.
PGD (4) 1 Cooper & Steadman’s Blue Velvet By Merrygarth. B/T that stood out in this class. Nice head, good front, neat shoulders, good length of ribbing. Lovely quarters, well muscled, was a little sluggish in the heat. RBD. 2 Halsall’s Brynalyn Noble Quest for Kiddles. Nice enough male, well presented. Preferred the shoulders on 1, good quarters that he used well on the move. 3 Furneaux’s Cairos Astaire.
LD (1) 1 Cooper & Steadman’s Alex’s Favourite With Merrygarth. Lovely head and eye, nice front, good ribbing, lovely quarters which he used well on the move.
OD (2 entries) 1 Clarke & Clarke’s Tekalhaus Masterpiece Sh.CM. Lovely head and neck, shoulders were well angulated but I would have preferred a better lay-back. Narrower in front than I would have liked. Good quarters. Moved well but not keeping outline at all times on the move. Seemed unsettled with his handler. BD. 2 Bongiovanni’s Merrygarth Greve De Lecq Avec Ankors. Pleasing dog, nice head and neck, good width in front, good bone. Stacks well.
PB (3,1a) Both bitches in this class were of very similar type; both still need to mature a lot. 1 Manston’s Bonavoir Suki Black. B/t bitch. Nice head and eye, in good condition Preferred this bitch as it has more upper arm and turn of stifle to 2, and used them more on the move. Well handled. 2 Baysan’s Laraine Truly Faye. Again nice head and eye, and in good condition. Sound happy mover enjoying her day out.
JB (1) 1 Sutton’s Damai Miss Sophie. Nice head and eye, prominent pro-sternum. Kept a good outline at all times. Would prefer more upper arm and shorter hocks. Didn’t keep a correct outline on the move today. RBB.
PGB (1) 1 Jordan’s Resurgam Calypso. Nice head, ok front, not the best of shoulders but produced lovely reach on the move. Quarters adequate. Well handled and in good condition.
LB (1) 1 Worth’s Bronia Zephyr At Loxbar. Lovely B/T bitch. Showed her socks off today. Nice head, prominent pro-sternum, good shoulders with enough upper arm. Lovely quarters which she used well on the move. Kept a lovely outline at all times. BB & BOB.
