Thank you to the committee for inviting me to judge at their 75th anniversary championship show and the exhibitors for a super entry – I thoroughly enjoyed my day. Thank you to my stewards for keeping everything running smoothly. Some of the decisions were very close with some excellent class winners.
Veteran Dog (1,0)
1 Denton – Ch Brackenhaye Fields Of Gold – a quality dog I have often admired form the ringside. Nice head of correct length, good length of body, well angulated front & rear with good bone. Moved with easy reach of stride.
Puppy Dog (2,0)
1 Acford – Coneypark Mattie Brown – s&w dog, nice head, but a little wide for me. Good length of back, moved quite well when settled. Happy character.
2 Howard & Fort – Shulune Imperial Inkheart with Casatentola – b/m dog, not quite as strong in head as 1st. Good length of body, lost out on movement. Colour needs to clear.
Junior Dog (1,0)
1 Martin – Sturtmoor Arceus’s Legacy JW – s&w with a classic clean wedge head of good length, well set ears used to advantage enhancing correct expression. Good length of neck & body, well angulated front & rear. Moved really well with good reach & drive. Pushed the overall winners in the challenge – look forward to seeing him as a mature dog.
Post Graduate Dog (2,0)
1 Denton – Rylance Moonshine over Brackenhaye – b/m who did not make the most of himself. Has a clean wedge head of good length, good reach of neck, well made body with good bone. Moved well when concentrating.
2 Rodgers – Blamorder Mischief Maker with Jerdoni – s&w of finer type than 1st. Good length of head, just needs to develop in body, not the angulation of winner. Moved OK.
Limit Dog (2,0)
2 dogs of very different types
1 Seager – Blamorder Magic Maker with Freejack JW – s&w with good length of head. Well made body with good length of back. Good bone, moved well with easy reach & drive.
2 Warren & Lusty – Coldelee Jupiter Rises with Blamorder JW – tricolour with a lot to like, just a little wider in skull & deeper in stop than 1st. Very good construction & movement.
Open Dog (4,0)
1 Wensley – Ch Constella Hazy Cosmic Jive JW – quality tri dog who has a clean wedge head of correct length, flat skull, well set eye & ears giving alert expression. Very well angulated front & rear with good length of back. Moved with reach & drive to win the CC.
2 Robertson – Wynele Strike One – another quality tri dog with good clean wedge head. Very good conformation & movement. Close decision between these two, just lacked showmanship of winner – RCC.
3 Seager – Blamorder Scale Force with Freejack
Veteran Bitch (2,1)
1 Cowling – Koczkodan Serenity – tri bitch full of quality. Clean wedge head with flat skull, correct eye & ears giving intelligent expression. Arched neck leading into well angulated front.
