Should have a strong future. BP; 2 Simpkins’ Iandor Love Me Tender, close up, loved the alertness & quality in head, good earset, eye & jaw, nice width in front, good muscle through his frame & rearquarters. Just needs to develop in front & rear action. Easy side action with the drive from behind, coat coming through well. JD (0).
