Wet and windy sums up the mornings conditions, but 90% of this entry did not seem to mind as they braved the elements and went round in the pouring rain. I appreciated the sporting way the exhibitors just put up with getting wet. VD (2, 1) 1, CC & BOB,  Mitchell's Ch Bronia Lotario JW. 7 yrs and looking good! Sound, confident mover who showed himself off, never mind the weather, so well proportioned, lovely head, expressive eyes, well ribbed up with strong, short loin, firm topline, strong quarters. At this point I didn't know he was going to be my BOB, but in this form he was obviously a contender. MPD (1) 1 Garlick's Ranglewood McNab. 8 mths, well grown b/t, full of self importance, head held high and trotted his stuff with all the confidence in the world. Masculine head, good bone and feet, strong body and topline. JD (5, 2) 1 Paget & Carroll's Bronia Big Bang At Marvale. 16 mths red, smart young man with good topline and proportions, quality head, lean fit body, covered the ground when moving, clean coat, well presented and handled. 2 Street & Toft's Ranglewood Lawsonia. 18 mths, masculine head, well placed shoulders, strong body, good bone, held himself well on the move. 3 Hurst's Ranglewood Lantana At Kejana. PGD (5, 2) 1 Metcalfe-Bilgin's Metadale Moment Of Glory. 3 yrs, the only one who moved with animation in this class, attractive head, kind dark eyes, good body and ribcage, steady showman, well shown. 2 Horn's Darsoms Zabbi. 21 mths, so serious about it all, good outline and proportions, excellent body, well boned, not moving or showing as well as first. 3 Dimon's Labbadax Inspiration For Dimerlin. LD (5, 1) 1 McNaughton's Cedavoch The Alchemist. Won a decent class, almost two, not in the least bit bothered by the horrible weather, he showed well regardless! Sound mover who responded well to his handler, quality head, lovely eyes and expression, firm topline, good ribcage. 2 Dare & Cuy's Darsoms Zimbro. 3 Geeson's Abydachs Seize The Night. OD (4, 1) 1 & RCC, Hutton's Ch River Rumpus Through Dachalune ShCM. 6 yr old b/t, best mover in the class and showed really well, good head, dark eyes, held his topline standing and moving, broad, strong quarters, well muscled, good bone, keen and alert. 2 Roberts' Swansford Warrador. 3 yrs, quality dog but not quite as relaxed on the move as winner, excellent coat and condition, pleasing head, well shown and handled. 3 McNaughton's Ch Telkel Rumor Has It (Imp). MPB (3, 1) 1 Garlick's Ranglewood Mistletoe. Litter sister to MPD winner, not as confident or as finished in topline as her brother. Quality head, lovely eyes and expression, good overall proportions, carrying a bit of puppy fat but still moved quite well. 2 Sutton & Pankhurst's Lilia Rose. Just 6 mths, real raw baby, good bone and body, clean coat, moved ok, preferred head and expression of first. PB (2) 1 & BP,  Mitchell's Bronia Atalanta. 11 mths, all quality puppy of good potential, most appealing in head and expression, lovely eyes, well balanced with no exaggerations, good topline and length of body, moved with drive and animation, happy showgirl. 2 McNaughton's Cedavoch Circe. 10 mths, another promising red, a little long in loin but moved and showed well, pretty face, expressive eyes, good bone, well handled and presented. JB (2, 1) 1 Garlick's Ranglewood Laurel. 17 mths red, stood alone here but could win better classes than this. Excellent free flowing movement, good outline, quality head, intelligent eyes, a little too much weight today but that's being hyper-critical. PGB (3, 1) 1 & RCC, Clarke's Tekelhaus Million To One ShCM. 20 mths red, excelled in topline, another who was carrying plenty of weight, but still moved with reach and drive, feminine head, bright expression, good bone and feet, rock steady showgirl. 2 Fossett's Africandawns Night Lover For Brysdax. 15 mths, coat not at its best, good bone and depth of body, attractive head, almond shaped eyes, moved ok, failed in topline compared to first.

Two and a half yrs, fit and healthy red with good head, expressive eyes, firm body, good bone, excellent coat, moved and showed steadily. 2 Geeson's Abydachs Giving Off Sparks. 2 yrs plus, not quite at ease or relaxed today, excellent coat and condition, good outline, moved ok, well handled, preferred head of first. 3 Roberts' Swansford Demidora.

Two and a half yr old red, really nice bitch with everything in proportion and not overdone in any way, good length of head, lovely eyes and expression, muscular arched neck, carried herself proudly on the move, perfect topline, sound and full of self esteem, good coat and condition, comfortable CC winner.
