1st
Hall & Danks-Kemish’s Kilnrae Hallmark Over Kenlinhall
Really like this young man for his type and shape. Correct head
with good proportions and a dark eye. Good length and arch of
neck into well laid shoulders, straight front and upright
pasterns. Well ribbed back to a short deep loin. Correct rear
angles. Level topline, good tailset and coat developing. On the
move he is a joy to watch for one so young. True coming and
going and free in profile with lovely drive. Considered for RBD
but just needs time. One to watch. BP |

2nd
Hamilton-Smith’s Kilnrae Signature
Litter brother to my winner
but not at all alike. This boy is much shorter through the body giving a
different outline but as he matures this may change. Similar in head
with a little more flew but the same dark eye. Good reach of neck and
well made forequarters. Good depth through chest and loin and a well
angled rear. Not as clean on the move

2nd
Wrigley’s Kattandale Canterbury (AI).
Broader in head than
1. Very well made forehand with well laid shoulders and good
return to upper arm. Well sprung ribs and I liked his depth
through chest and loin. Good muscle definition to the rear. Move
well with drive |

1st
Alcorn, Baddeley & Crowther’s Sh Ch Lourdace Fulcrum JW
What can I say that has not been said about this boy. So pleased
to be able to get my hands on him. Stands out and has a presence
about him. Good depth to the head with correct breadth. Strong
slightly arched neck to super forequarters, well muscled and
well laid shoulders, excellent forechest, deep chest and a
straight front with plenty of bone. Short coupled with a deep
firm loin, level topline and correct tail carriage. Carrying a
good coat, not over done. Well muscled rear used on the move to
give plenty of drive. True fore and aft with a lovely tail
action level with his back. Easy to see why he has won so much.

2nd
Mcavoy’s Laurelhach Bemm
Another D that commands attention but in a less assuming manner.
Standing quietly in the shadow of the winner this boy also has a
lot to like. Correct proportions to his head, dark eye. Nice
arch to neck and another that is well made. Super shoulders and
good forechest, nice bone with good pasterns and feet. Deep
chest and good spring to ribs. Short loin that could be a tad
deeper. Lovely rear angles. Steady mover with enough drive. A
pleasure to award RBD |

1st
Evans’ Lainnireach Divine Von Langstrumpf
Such a baby at her first show. Pretty feminine head, well made
front with good bone, nice pasterns and feet. Lovely level
topline, chest still developing but nice depth to loin. Correct
rear angles and for one so young, settled well on the move
showing a nice easy gait with good drive |

Not much to
choose between these 2

1st
Roberts’s Birchgarth Be Bop For Mirkwood
This B presents a nice outline, feminine yet with strength.
Pleasant head, perhaps a tad long in the muzzle, good neck and
well made front. Nice bone with correct pasterns. Lovely depth
and spring of rib back to a short deep loin. Well muscled and
well angulated rear. Level topline. Better of the 2 on the move
today. |

2nd
Wrigley’s Kattandale Black Fern (AI).
Longer cast than 1,
pleasing head and neck. Nice bone, pasterns slightly sloping.
Good spring and depth of rib, slight tuck up to well muscled and
angulated rear. Moving a little close going away but nice in
profile. |
Post Graduate Bitch
(9,2a)
What a lovely class to judge and very close between 1 & 2.
 |
1st
Phillips & Watkins’ Flaxheath Top Model At Glenmaurangi
This young lady set
the benchmark in the class. Love her head, feminine of good
proportions. Super fore quarters, well laid shoulders, good
forechest. Correct depth to chest and loin. Lovely rear angles,
well muscled and what a mover. True coming and going then free
with plenty of drive in profile. Will soon be taking top
honours. RBB |

2nd
Thomas’ Chartan Treacle Tart JW
Really pushed the winner hard. Very similar to 1st with many of
the same attributes. Just preferred the forehand of my winner.

1st
Nagaty’s Forester’s Xclusive Edition at Marlbeck (Imp Deu).
I liked this lady last time I judged her and I still do.
Feminine head with correct shape & proportions. Correct length
of neck sweeping into a level topline. Well laid shoulder over
deep, well spring ribs through to a short deep loin. Strength
throughout the body but with a feminine quality. Lovely rear
angles and well muscled. Nice mover, correct reach and drive and
true coming & going. BB |

2nd
Thomas’ Chartan Hermione Grainger
Slightly longer cast than 1, pleasing head, greying a little,
good shape. Nice spring of rib and depth of chest. Lovely rear
angles. Could be tidier coming and going but free in profile.
