1st SKETRICK LATIN LOVER (MR B & MISS N ROBERTS & PHOENIX)

7 month old boy very much a baby, promising puppy. Pleasing head with good length of muzzle, gentle stop, well positioned dark eye, correct earset and the blackest pigment. Good length of neck into well constructed shoulder. Very good width to front. Firm topline, good spring of rib, nice short coupling. Very nicely angulated rear, lovely croup and tailset. Moved very well for such a youngster. Coat coming on nicely – ample amount, good length with slight wave. Altogether a very nice prospect. BP

2nd PENELLCY SPARTAN WARRIOR (MRS J & MR A S WILCOCK)

11 month old male puppy of larger type. Maturing very well, very good size. Head of good proportions. Attractive dark eye, very good earset, nicely rounded skull. Reasonable front, but a little narrower than 1, good croup and tailset. Pleasing rear angulation. Moved ok, but needs to tighten in rear action. Beautifully presented coat of good texture.

1st PYRDANTI GOLDENEYE (MR A & MRS J FRANCIES)

14 month old male with lovely head and expression. Almond shaped well placed dark eye, good pigment, tight lips, good ear placement. Very nicely domed skull. Lovely outline, good croup and very low set tail. A little upright in angulation front and rear and a bit short in upper thigh. Moved out well in this class, but a little loose in other classes. Beautifully prepared abundant coat to complete picture.

1st GILLANDANT KATHY'S CLOWN OF DEWYCHE JW (MRS K M E MAGGS)

19 month old male. Very good height and excellent presentation. Masculine head, very little stop, just appearing a little heavy in muzzle at this stage. Good dark eye, could be shade larger, very nice ear placement. Good neck into pleasing shoulders. Really good flowing topline and nicely set tail. Lovely forward movement, excellently handled. An imposing young man overall.

1st CHARIBERE SECRET OF OURS AT CHEZANNA SHCM (MRS C MR A J KENYON & WARD)

Very close between these two brothers. Excellent size and bone, but still retaining that balance between power and grace. Very good one piece masculine head. Good dark eye, nice ear placement and lovely dark pigment. Very well constructed boy, firm topline, nice tailset, strong straight rear. Moved with effortless flowing movement. Lovely well presented coat completes a very pleasing picture. BOB

2nd CH CHARIBERE SOLAR SPIRIT AT CHEZANNA JW SHCM (MRS C MR A J KENYON & WARD)

Again much the same to say as 1. Both 3 years old. Slightly different head with probably a better eye than 1, but this boy is a little longer overall and just preferred the movement of his brother today. RBOB
