FOX SMOOTH MANCHESTER 18 Judge: Mr Espen Engh BEST OF BREED : 1530 THORNTON, BOOTH, WILBERG, MALZONI & BEBBINGTON Am Gr Ch Ch J'cobe Broxden Shark Dressed Man FOX SMOOTH JUDGE MANCHESTER 18 PD (2, 1) 1 Turley's Llyunamill Black Tie Affair. Masculine puppy, decidedly not small, well developed for his age and with very pleasing proportions and with a smart and defined outline. Well proportioned, masculine head. Acceptable ears. Pleasing neck into shoulders. Excellent topline. Well set tail, if somewhat proudly carried. Correct coat quality. Kept his outline well on the move, but at this age rather limited in his extension. 1 Moore's Wild Thing At Eskwyre. Powerful, masculine dog, not large. Short and quite cobby, I would not mind a bit more elegance and especially some more length of neck. Masculine head, rather divergent in his planes. Ears at this age rather flighty. Excellent bone and pasterns. Firm topline. Well set tail. He came into his own in movement as he is balanced in front and behind and quite parallel coming and going. 1 Turley's Zetamaz Marcel Marceau Avec Llyunamill JW ShCM. Quality, well proportioned male. Well chiseled head with flat skull, moderately narrow, but with hardly any stop at all. Pleasing ears. Normal neck. Moderately angulated in front. Firm topline. Well set tail. Excellent coat quality. Moved parallel coming and going and quite sound from the side as well. 2 Baker's Roxway Extra Time At Tuskenraider. Compact male with quality. Attractive head proportions. He used his neck to his advantage, but could have a more attractive neck into shoulder, some of which was caused by rather excessive coat. Very moderately angulated both ends, but it balanced out and kept his balance on the move, even if it limited his strides. 3 Vickers' Eskwyre Funtime Frankie. 1 Thornton, Booth, Wilberg, Malzoni & Bebbington's Am Gr Ch Ch J'cobe Broxden Shark Dressed Man. Stunning dog of intense quality, outstanding for type, outline and proportions. His head is well chiseled and shaped, of correct length, size and proportions. Excellent ears and eyes giving him a bright and intense expression. Lovely neck into shoulder, short and firm back. Well set tail with plenty of dog behind the tail, covering good ground while still being short coupled. He moved with balance and style, typically perpendicular to body without exaggeration. I could not take my eyes off him and thought him a comfortable winner. CC & BOB. 2 Brookes' Zetamaz Gerard Depardieu JW ShCM. Another very attractive and typey dog with a lovely balance, style and elegance. Even if his head is both masculine and well chiselled, he does not have the head planes nor quite the ears of the winner. Lovely outline, including neck into shoulder, short, firm topline and well set tail. Well angulated behind. Moved with style, balance and animation from the side, reasonable coming and going. Res CC. 3 Broom's Ch Oaxaca Del Boy With Roxway. 2 Dolman & Dolman's Yoxella Wind Flower. Elegant bitch with very pleasing proportions. Rather refined in head, could do with a stronger underjaw. Rather light ears at this stage. Quite pleasing neck. Came into her own in movement from the side, balanced, stylish and collected, but not as good as seen from behind. 3 Davison's Lizoni Hot To Trot. 1 Hannar's Borovale Georgia. Instantly attractive, top quality, feminine bitch, well up on her legs and very short in her body, making for a stunning outline. Lovely, well shaped and balanced head with excellent expression, full of fire. Pleasing ears. Very long and well set neck. Moderate, balanced angulation both ends, making sense. Well set tail. Front feet not her fortune, but acceptable. Moved with style and well synchronised. Definitely a star in the making, today she won her first CC. 2 Jones & Moakes' Darlaur Deja Vu. In several ways, an attractive bitch, being a well constructed dog, but in my assessment rather on the heavy side. Strong head, still very expressive. Strong neck. I would like less width in her front. She is particularly well angulated, if somewhat on the short-legged side. Lovely tail. Moved with power and strength, sound from all angles as her construction suggested. 1 Goodley's Glendraterra Glad Rags. Small, feminine and elegant bitch with attractive head proportions and chiseling. Somewhat heavy ears. Normal neck. Short, well collected loin. Well set tail. Very moderately angulated in both ends, reflected in her side movement. Could be more stable coming and going. Pleasing coat. Well handled. 2 Chadwick's Chantalle Penelope Pitstop At Aggello. A longer cast bitch, but feminine and with quality. Acceptable head and ears. Medium neck. Firm topline despite being rather generous. Well set tail. Beautiful coat. Moved medium well from all angles, could have carried herself with more pride. 1 Thornton & Bebbington's Dior Du Manoir Saint Adrien By Glendraterra. Typey, feminine bitch, full of fire and life. She is short and well collected. Rather large eyes tend to disturb the expression somewhat. Acceptable ears. Strong neck. She has a well developed body with plenty of spring of rib. Firm topline, well set tail which she really used to her advantage. Lovely coat and colour. She moved with plenty of animation, balanced if with very moderate strides. 1 Mohrke's Eur Ch Vanilia Vd Bismarckquelle. A particularly sound bitch who impressed in movement from all angles, very sympathetically shown on a loose lead. Just enough length of leg, but she has a long and well shaped head and well set ears. Excellent neck, well set into shoulders. Firm topline, short loin. Well set and carried tail. Dead sound in movement, at all time in sync. with her handler, even if not quite as elegant as some, she still won this class with something in hand. 2 Thornton & Bebbington's Glendraterra Dezina Label. Eyecatching bitch with a very attractive head and expression. Very pleasing neck into shoulder. Firm topline, short enough. Excellent tail with plenty of dog behind it. Toed-in both standing and moving and somewhat untidy in movement as viewed from behind. 3 Saunders' Venice V D Bismarckquelle (Imp) ShCM.
