Both in lovely coats. Separating them was purely on movement, the dog was just a little looser and more erratic.  Sure they will both have good futures. PG (1,0) 1st Calvert’s Beresford Night Spell 12mth b/w bitch – just one week out of puppy.  Lovely head with slightly domed skull and correct proportions. Balanced body although still has plenty of maturing to come, on the move very erratic and paced occasionally needed to settle.

Ribs well back, strong in the loin.  Fabulous feet and in lovely coat. Everything came together on the move  BOB Golden Retriever P 1st Mackenzie’s Leynosk Top N Take That 7mth d – super balanced puppy for one so young.  Nice bone and substance, good shoulder and rear angulation.  Broad in the head but not coarse, well chiselled, correct bite.  Nice tight feet and in very good coat condition.  His chest needs to fully drop but has plenty of time, I would also prefer him to be slightly shorter coupled but very much a lovely puppy.  BP and PG3 2nd Foster’s Mockingjay vd Corner Brook to Auristela (Imp NLD) 8 mth b J (3,0) 1st Trotter’s Baricia Let it Shine 12mth d Just out of puppy but already maturing very well.  Beautifully balanced stood and on the move.  Lovely bone and in fantastic coat.  Broad head, no doubting a male but no coarseness, dark eye with lovely gentle expression.  Good front and rear angulation, shoulders well laid back.  Good ribs, well back and short coupled.  Very balanced on the move, should have a very bright future. 2nd Mackenzie’s Leynosk Top N Take PG 1st Robinson’s Lamancha Keep the Faith 20mth d Caught my eye as he came in and he did not disappoint.  He was in a very strong class.  Lovely bone and substance, dark eye complimenting his head, broad but not coarse with nice chiselling. Good length of upper arm leading to well laid back shoulder blades.  Chest well down, elbows tight and close.  Tight feet.  Ribs well back, short coupled and strong over the loin.  Good turn of stifle, well muscled thighs.  On the move was light on his feet, had front reach and good rear driving action.  Coat in beautiful condition and just completed the picture.  Could not deny him BOB and in a strong group very pleased to award G1, well done.  2nd Trotter’s Barcia Let it Shine L (4,0) 1st Robinson’s Lamancha Keep the Faith 2nd Gerhold’s Jaymardy Indigo Pacific JW d another nice dog, unlucky to come against 1st.  Similar qualities but preferred the balanced movement on 1st.

The most feminine of the class, well balanced stood and on the move, driving well from the rear.

All male, broad in the head, dark eye, well defined stop.  Chest well down, lovely bone and substance.  Short coupled and strong in the loin.  Well laid shoulders.  I would prefer a little more rear angulation.  Moved well but had a tendency to be a little wide at the rear but earned his BOB. 2nd Bradley and Cook’s Millroseglen Bona Fide Cocker Spaniel P (1,0) 1st Rainey’s Coleela Red Admiral 9mth golden d – super puppy, everything right for his age.
