Quality red d with a super head and expression. Good, well ribbed body with a good topline. Nicely angulated and with neat hocks he moved soundly with real drive. Presented in a good harsh jacket. 2 Crawley's Ragus Edge Of Forever. Another quality one that I see is the litter brother to first. They share many of the same attributes but I just preferred the head of first, who I also found a shade more compact. 3 Needham's Sativus Perpignan Of Titanium. JD(1) 1 Barrell's Barwest Blaze Of Glory. A typey, sound moving d with a masculine head and pleasing expression. OK for body and with a good topline, I found him nicely angulated. Presented in a good jacket, he was well handled and showed well. LD(3, 1) 1 Corkhill's Redash Going For Gold. A sound moving d of excellent type. Good head and expression, nice flow of neck into a good topline and a good well ribbed body. Nicely angulated rear with well developed quarters and in a good jacket. Two nice ones in this class, I just preferred the forehand and movement of first. RDCC. 2 Brown's Ragus The Devil Can Wait For Laserean. Another with a lovely head and expression, good for body and bone and well developed quarters. In good coat, he moved well behind but not quite so well in front.

CC, BOB & G2. 2 James' Bakewood Twent Four Carat. Good for type, presented in superb condition and with a lovely rich red jacket, this one immediately takes the eye. I liked him for his head and expression, body and bone and lovely quarters. Not quite the front movement or angulation of first. GCD(1) 1 Nutkins' Tebrun Favour. Showy d, good for size with a masculine head and pleasing topline, he looked his best on the move in profile. PB(7, 1) 1 Brown's Queslade Amber Angel. He is the one I would have liked to take home.

Nicely balanced in body and bone but I would have preferred a better set on. She moved soundly and had just enough coat to feel the texture. LB(5, 1) 1 Stevenson's Ragus Coming Up Next At Brickin. A sound moving b/t with a super harsh jacket. Feminine head with a pleasing expression, good for body, topline and angulation. Well developed quarters and good tight feet, she showed well. 2 Armstrong & Lawrance' Elantiz Rambling Rosie. Another sound moving b with the prettiest of heads. She pleased in body but has not quite the bone of first. pleasing angulation with neat hocks and good feet, she was presented in a good jacket. 3 Thompson-Morgan's Belleville's Coconut Effect.
