MP (3,0) 1. Jackson's Lilorchard Williams Pear: 8 months well marked Blenheim dog. Larger type than the others in the class, but still a balanced picture overall. Good dark, well spaced eyes, almost flat skull and well set ears, framing a reasonable head with a sweet but masculine expression, lacking padding under the eye at the moment but this should come. Correct scissor bite. OK reach of neck, and a well laid shoulder, leading to a level topline, though lost occasionally on the move. Good turn of stifle. Tail set OK. Movement ok. Won on maturity today. BP 2. Whitman & Tarabad's Khatibi The Queen's Peach: 7 months Blenheim bitch at her first show. Nice dark, well spaced eyes, and well set ears. Scissor bite. Good reach of neck, leading to a well laid shoulder and a level topline with an excellent tailset. Good turn of stifle. Not quite the overall balance of 1 at the moment, but feel it will come as she matures. Movement was good, if a little erratic. Happy little showgirl - though she gave her handler some work to do . 3. Hutchin's Frondil Office Rocker

P (2,0) 1. Whitman & Tarabad's Khatibi Royal Male: 7 months heavily marked Tricolour dog. What a lovely head & expression this boy has already! Dark, well spaced eyes, almost flat skull and well set ears which framed such a sweet expression. Reasonable reach of neck and a well laid shoulder, followed by a well ribbed body, short loin and well set tail. Good turn of stifle. He maintained his topline at all times, even though on the move he was a bit exuberant at times.   2. Jackson's Fortunamajor Stormy Sky: 11 months heavily marked tricolour bitch. Very unsettled today and did not show herself to her advantage. Good dark eyes, almost flat skull and well set ears. Lacking padding under the eye at the moment but this may improve with maturity. Correct scissor bite. Ok reach of neck, well laid shoulder. Level topline standing, but lost occasaionally on the move. Good turn of stifle.
