Judge: Mr J Luscott
A great entry of quality dogs with close decisions in most classes. PD (2) 1 Kerrush’s Inzievar Royal Gold, loved the head & balance, good skull, muzzle & topknot, excellent development at this stage, chest, body & muscle, good balance, reach & drive, strong rearquarters & lovely action in profile, shows great promise. BP; 2 Hulme & Hunter’s Hendell Alphonse with Etsill, 8 months & exciting in head, eye, muzzle & skull development at this stage of his growth, good muscle, moved OK. Not the overall balance yet of 1. JD (3,1a) Difficult decision with 1 better on the move. 1 Osbourne’s Pussockswell Amber Melody for Braego, good outline & eye, nice muscled & shape, good balance. Not the front or topline at this stage, head with more development to come. A quality dog; 2 Cooper’s Margham Feather Duster, beautiful head & balance, good shape but not moving typically for the breed with the drive required. The handler needs to work on this action & it would give a potentially great dog a much better chance in the future, it may have been the ring surface on the day. PGD (0). OD (3) 1 Buist & Jamieson’s Ch Inzievar Silver Gilt, impressive top quality dog with good overall balanced & strength, great head of typical broad skull, width of jaw & muzzle, loved the outline, topline, front & rearquarters, crisp coat, has a great action on the move with the reach, drive & side gait, on top form to win BOB; 2 Halliwall & Corless’ Dengold Enterprise, good honest type, correct eye, jaw, muzzle & head strength, lovely outline & shape, good body & muscle, strong quarters. Not quite the movement or tailset of 1. RBD; 3 Weatherstone’s Hendell Beau Brummel at Borderstone. PB (3,2) 1 Osbourne’s Pitfirrance Silver Lady of Braego, attractive youngster, pleases in head & eye, good over the skull & topknot, a happy girl, alert & balanced, good front & muscle, nice topline, good action. JB (2) 1 Kinsey-Morgan’s Inzievar Gold Edition, exciting young mustard bitch with a lovely outlook, style & balance, good though head & skull, has the right proportions coming in body, chest & strong rearquarters, her typical action won her the class; 2 Smith’s Somercloud Starprize at Glendandy, pleasing youngster, good balance in head. A little longer in body proportions at present. Strong muscle, good coat coming through, moving easily around the ring. PGB (4,2) 1 Denham’s Dentage Serendipity, loved the great outline, balance & action on this pepper, good head & body, nice through topline, good size & stamp, moves really well & has the finish in coat; 2 Denham’s Dentgate Sencerity, not quite the development of her sister at this stage but OK through front, good eye, muzzle & shape, good muscle in quarters & body. Not the front, coat & balance of 1. OB (8,2) 1 Shore’s Swanwillow Savannah, excellent class won by a beautiful, well balanced & strong mustard bitch, well proportioned head of the correct type, good eye, jaw, skull & strength in muzzle, good front & bone, strongly muscled through her body & topline, excellent balance on the move, good size & substance, good coat. BB, pushing the male all the way in the challenge; 2 Cameron’s Ch Inzievar Silver Bonnet, loved the balance & shape of this quality pepper lady, good outline, head, eye & balanced of type, good on the move with reach & drive, shown & handled well, pushed 1 all the way in the class. RBB.
