1​ Gordon's Nujax Social Icon. Res Best Dog. Lovely outline with good topline; masculine head with muzzle of good shape and sufficiently strength. Excellent lay of shoulder and return of upperam. Good spring of rib and short, strong loin. Well let down hocks. Covered the ground well on the move. Should have a promising future.

2 ​Waterworth's Surechanz Quartzite For Maritzi. Very feminine with typical outline and correct topline. Head of sufficient length with good furnishings. Dark, oval eye; good spring of rib and good rear angulation. Just not quite the front angulation of my winner. Moved soundly and vigourously.

1​ Macmullen's Killaspughbrone Silver Spirit [ATC AU01706IKC] Best Dog. Very nice dog who caught my eye as soon as he entered the ring. I appreciated his qualities despite the fact that the handler did not always get the best out of him. Lovely well-proportioned head with good length of skull and muzzle. Correct dark, oval eye. Best front assembly in this class. Excellent spring of rib and depth of chest; short, well-developed loin. Good width of upper and lower thigh. Really strode out well on the move and shown in lovely harsh coat with dense undercoat.

2​ Evans' Fun Of The Fair Eldzh Hope. Nice compact dog with pleasing head, eye and expression. Good spring of rib, depth of chest and bend of stifle. Nice very slightly sloping topline. Moved well and shown in good harsh coat. Just not quite the front assembly and bone of my winner.

3​ White's Ir Ch/Int Ch Bagmed Will I Am. 

Open - Bitch

1​ Cawley's Ir Ch Killaspughbrone Magnolia Blossom [ATC AU01757IKC] Best Bitch & BOB. Pleased to see that she was shortlisted in the group. Lovely bitch who really caught my eye on the first run around the ring. Sufficient strength in both skull and muzzle yet very feminine. Lovely oval eye shape and pleasing expression. Neck of moderate length and well set into sloping shoulders. Excellent angulation infront and behind. Correct topline just sloping slightly from withers to croup; good depth of chest and spring of rib. Excellent harsh coat with dense undercoat. Really strode out well on the move.

2 ​Klavsone's Ch Dreamkiss Primary Right. Res BestBitch. Another lovely bitch shown in good coat and condition who was close up but I just preferred the front movement of my winner. Feminine head with lovely furnishings; a little narrower in muzzle than 1. Lovely almost square outline. Good topline, depth and width of chest and bend of stifle. Covered the ground well on the move.

3​ Hammerton's Slains Sparkling Snowdrop.
