J(5.1) Mr A.Mrs l & Miss A.M. Frith’s  1.CAIRNGOLD  CHIQUITITA/Crm/B (& months  old)  & Full of  

herself today leading her handler a pretty dance however when settled she showed what good  

qualities she has  along with a bright attentive expression she is maturing at just the right rate A  

good overall balance with strong bones & angulation. Head is shaping nicely Good ear carriage  

,with feathering coming through & has correct dentation. Neck is well set into a good lay of  

shoulder Brisket is yet to develop fully but she has a nice tuck up with short coupling Second thigh  

still developing but is nicely let down onto hocks Coat at the ‘in between stage’ of changing  

Movement erratic but when settled sound, Good Tail set Very promising youngster who am sure  

will make mark in the breed. (BP)  2 .Mr C &Mrs  L M Saich LINDCOLY HOWLING DEE DEE  /Brm/B  

Lacks in coat today which distracted one from thinking she was a cairn however one was also able  

to assess her more easily & although she has all the major points of 1 .The other bitch had the  

better head.3. Mrs P C Clarke CAIRNGOLD CHAKIRA/B TAF

all the relevant points lead is well shaped with adequate feathering ,good ear carriage & is bright  

dark eyed giving her a lovely alert expression  Correct dentition with nice reach of neck set onto a  

good lay of shoulder. Nice angulations with turn of stifle let down onto hocks. Good tail set & top  

line. Only criticism on the move ‘at time’appears to ‘nip her elbows’   (RBOB)2.  Mrs J Ballinger

today. Another bitch with all quality points Good ratio to size. Head clearly defined well framed by  

feathering & correct dentation. Nice front with strong bone .Clean angulations & lay of

J (2) 1. Ms J L & Mr G J Dowdy DENZILLY SWEET CARIAD /B (8 months old)  What a character still in

Good overall portion with ratio to size has strong bone ,substance &  in good coat .Head is well  

defined with good ear carriage dark piercing eye & a ‘great aloof’ expression Correct dentition ,  

nice reach of neck set onto shoulders. Brisket still dropping but has ‘tuck up’ & is short  

coupled. Clean angulation with turn of stifle let down onto hocks (BP) 2, Satherley & Witheyman  

SILKCROFT BORN THIS WAY/B Not quite the ring presence of 1 but has all major points with well  

defined head Correct bite Overall conformation to ratio Has good bone , substance  & tail set 

However was let down by movement (moves over at the back) this might be corrected by moving a  

little slower

framed for bones & substance Has all attributes well shaped head ,Good ear carriage ,dark eyed &  

correct dentition. Nicely angulated Fore & Rear. Erratic on   move but when settled OK would have

front top line ‘Lay ‘of shoulder & tail set Nice angulations ,turn of stifle let down onto hocks Moved  

soundly & with drive (BOB/3rd in Group)2. Mrs C A Tilley JANEY JIMJAMS JUBILEE STAR AT STARZAK
