WIRE-HAIRED

V (1) 1 Mankin’s Birchman Bold Buccaneer. Enjoying his day out and really giving his handler a hard time, lovely temperament, good strong head into a reasonably well laid shoulder, well ribbed with good keel, topline good, would have liked more upper arm, excellent jacket, moved well. Best Veteran.

J (3, 1) 1 Mankin’s Birchman Black Bart. Lovely head and ear set and good mouth and eye, excellent reach of neck, well ribbed, well angulated front and hind, good rib, depth and length, strong rear quarters, gave good drive on the move. 2 Wright’s Warrsan Dazzle. B/t bitch with good coat, lost out on presentation, attractive head, super neck and well laid shoulder, good front, topline kept at all times, moved well, pushed hard to win.

PGD(3) 1 Hodgson’s Lieblings Matinee Idol. red, good strong head and plenty of length in neck, well laid shoulders and lovely sweep of keel, length and depth of rib, well angulated front and rear, good coat, moved well with drive. Res BD. 2 Edwards &Lavin’s Swincombes Darite. Preferred the slightly more elegant head of this exhibit but lost out on neck length and not quite so well angulated, well ribbed with good keel and topline, good coat, moved well. 3 Sanders’ Warrsan Cracker.

OD(2) 1 Hodgson’s Kenmillix Columbus. Super head and expression, well set ears, dark eyes and good mouth, good reach of neck and sweep of keel, shoulders were well laid and he had length of upper arm, well ribbed with length and depth, strong hindquarters, topline excellent, such a happy boy. I love this about the Wires. Excellent jacket, moved well with drive. BD. 2 Edwards &Lavin’s Nosinllor Fusilier. Just preferred the head of winner but still good, plenty of length in body and neck, well laid shoulder, good topline and well ribbed, super pin wire coat, moved well.

PGB(2, 1) 1 Mankin’s Birchman Marauding Miss. Lovely bitch with quality written over her, lovely head and neck and well set ears, shoulders well laid giving a good keel, well ribbed that kept topline level, well angulated fore and aft, moved well with drive. BB and BOB.

OB(3, 2) 1 Paterson &Paterson’s Ch Cloudside Isodora At Ambiesque ShCM. Res BB. Lovely bitch worthy of her crown but lost out today to winner of the last class on sparkle and she did not have as much keel, having said that she had a beautiful head and expression, dark eyes and well set on ears, good neck with arch, well placed shoulders and well ribbed, excellent jacket, moved well with drive.
