Puppy - Dog Entries: 2 Absentees: 1 Geddes' INGLEDENE MERCURY RISIN, this puppy entered the ring as a puppy. Played about, had a poo, and then gradually came to realise what was required of him. As the day went on he just got better and better. He ended up with Best Puppy and the CC so I have to say exquisite. So true and typical in all departments, including colour, head, expression, eyes and ears. He presents a beautiful silhouette and he will of course get better and better. What a star !

1ST Geddes' INGLEDENE MERCURY RISIN 2ND Fuller's HANVALE ARTHUR SHELBY WITH DAMOS, another good youngster of correct size. Plenty in head and neck and good foreface, but a little bit round in skull. He needs more time. He will drop a bit behind and widen a little in front. He has promise and although his coat was not at its best today he has undoubted quality. 3RD Corben's ASTROMELIAS ULISES VIA CAPRIOARA (IMP ESP)

1ST Bartram's AMBARTR KING OF THE RING, very good proportions, good head, exceptionally good foreface, ears a touch heavy. He holds his topline well and his coat fits his body. 2ND Rust's JOTARS MOON SPRITZER, a touch longer and short on leg. Heavier type but a good dog. He went straight up and back well, good blue merle colour. Good temperament. 3RD Harvey's WICANI CLOAK AND DAGGER

1ST Corben's CAPRIOARA SILVER CLOUD, a strongly made dog. He eventually topped this difficult class on his good proportions, enough neck, strong bone and body. A little bit heavy in skull and ear but a good foreface. Good colour. He worked to win the class. 2ND Geddes' INGLEDENE WELL SORTED, good type and presented a very attractive silhouette. He has enough angulation and a good shoulder placement. He is a little bit narrow in foreface but he pushed hard for the first place. 3RD Cronk's CHELBORN STORY TELLER (MRS V CRONK)

1 Rae's ANTOC SOUL MATE, a sound honest dog. He has dignity and good station. I very much like his head, correct eyes and ears for expression. Held his topline, good bone, good coat and moved very well. He won the RCC. The charm of the young dog beat him today. 2 Pryor's AQUALITA DR NO, also a very good dog of correct proportions with a strong body and bone. He is a touch heavy in skull and his ears could be higher set. Training would help. 3 Thorne's TRIFORCE DRAGON HEART SHCM

1 Alexander's INGLEDENE ARAMIS, a promising youngster but immature. He has a good coat and the basics. Good ears. Maturity may help him. At the moment he is a touch narrow. 

Veteran - Dog Or Bitch Entries: 3 Absentees: 1

1 Bartram's AQUALITA ONE LOVE, a quality dog of 8 years. I consider him an excellent veteran. Still has a very good mouth, well put together, moved well up and down. He has quality and I liked his correct tail carriage. 2 Skinner's NIKAL IT'S GUD TO BE BLACK, medium size, not quite the reach of neck but he has a strong body and bone. A good veteran but showing his age in pasterns and teeth

Nice bone, moved well, good tail carriage, little bit out of coat. 2ND Lyall's SANTALOLY'S SKY AMIDALAS, certainly better coated today with a very nice head and expression. A good body, but not moving as well behind as the winner
