I would like to thank the Officers and Committee for their kind invitation to judge at their show, it was both an honour and a privilege. 

I was mindful of the height to length ratio and good ground clearance, all exhibits in my opinion would be able to do a day’s work if required. My day was made more memorable by a superb entry full of quality, and a very good representation of the breed all excelling in breed type, with good dentition, all were dark wild boar in colour with the exception of three, all had free flowing movement and good harsh coats. This made some of my decisions very close. I was so pleased with my principal winners, all of whom excel in quality and ooze breed type. My sincere thanks to all of the exhibitors who entered under me for a day I will remember. 

Finally, grateful thanks to my very adept steward Janice Cumberland for keeping everything running so smoothly on the day.
