IRISH JUDGE BIRMINGHAM NATIONAL 11

Irish Terriers

PD (2)

1 Seabridge’s Sujoncla Kowtolik, very smart youngster, great coat, lovely head, refined skull, well placed ears, excellent front, good topline. BP & RCC;

2 Grant’s Kerrykeel Cormac at Ticknock, 7 months & still needing some time. In great coat & condition. Never really settled. Not quite as good in head as 1. Well handled & presented.

JD (1)

1 Cook’s Montelle Ring Master at Terrahawk, upstanding dog, top size & doesn’t need to grow on. Excellent coat & colour, good bone & feet, straight front, good topline. Would like a bit more length of head & better placed ears.

PGD (2)

1 Bamsey’s Holbam Winslow King, very showy, good outline. Though a touch in body. Good neck & shoulder, excellent topline. Straight front standing but moving could be a little sounder. Moves well behind;

2 M Ring Master at T.

LD (2)

1 Atwell’s Montelle Mr Sandman at Xanwil, very refined in head, good expression. Ears could have a bit more lift. Excellent front & feet, good bone, good neck & shoulder, excellent topline, well presented;

2 Cooke’s Lionwood Rowanberry, slightly older dog but not as refined as 1, not the length of head as 1. Excellent colour & coat texture, moved soundly.

OD (3)

1 Barker & Malzoni’s Am Ch Fleet St Fenway Fan, lovely dog, full of presence, shows so well & totally sound, very good head & true Irish expression, super front, excellent topline & tailset, in sparkling order. CC, BOB & G2;

2 Rundle’s Ch Sidewater The Pretender, close to 1 & lots to like. In great coat & colour, good reach of neck. Not quite as good in shoulder. Good front & feet, well handled.

GCD (2)

1 M Mr Sandman at X; 2 L Rowanberry.

PB (4)

1 Bradbury’s Montelle Leading Light, very promising young bitch, very together which is where she beat 2. Good neck & shoulder, good front, excellent feet. Topline needs to firm up a little. Should have a good future;

2 Hemmings’ Kerrykeel Roisin of Courtington, close up to 1 & had she shown better could maybe have won. Better length of head to 1. Moves OK but a little lazy with her tail. On the table she is lovely to go over, maybe the noise affected her performance;

3 Bamsey’s Holbam Tierneys Girl.

JB (1)

1 Atwell’s Xanwil Mystical Girl, very feminine, very good outline, good reach of neck, excellent layback of shoulder, straight front, excellent topline, well presented & handled.

PGB (1)

1 Bradbury’s Montelle Ring Of Gold, very ‘Irish’. Very necky, super front, good bone & feet, long clean head, well placed ears when she decides to use them. Very good natural tailset, very sound behind, in super coat.

LB (2)

1 Grant’s Ticknock Tamarind Breeze, OK for size, good topline & tailset. Shoulders a bit high. More length of head to 1 & also better ear set. Good coat & well presented;

2 Ruffles’ Ruffmar Bronzed Ballerina, slightly smaller to 1 & just didn’t show as well as I am sure she usually does. Not the length of head of 1 & ears rather low set. Good reach of neck, OK in topline.

OB (2)

Only two but quite difficult to place. What I liked in one I didn’t on the other.

1 Rundle & Goddard’s Allatsea Gift Of Gold at Marshcourt, still fairly young. I liked her more length of head & more refined in skull. Good neck & shoulder. Topline a little slack at times. I liked her more racy outline in the end. CC;

2 Kenyon’s Sinead’s Siofra of Wyndam, more ‘ready’ than 1 but a bit too heavy in type I felt. Better topline than 1. Good bone & feet, excellent presentation. RCC.

GCB (1)

1 X Mystical Girl.
