PD 2(0)

1. Ellrich’s Malrich Hendricks. Tri with good substance, nice feet and croup, pleasing head and good keel, won this class on movement as covered ground beautifully, really lovely mover.

2. Irvine’s Sasilasy Lucky Day for Emmorah. Still very much a baby, good substance and lovely clean head, still wiggly at the moment but will just need a little bit of time to come together.

JD 1(0)

1. Blevins’ Blevwil Kenny Dewitt. Slightly racy at the minute but lovely reach and drive, good bone and still developing, will watch with interest and has a good keel.

GD 1(0)

1. Miskelly’s Norchard Tiger Roll. Good outline with ok keel and shown in nicely muscled condition, good domed head and clean expression, would prefer a little cleaner going away and a bit more animation on the move.

PGD 1(0)

1. Miskelly’s Norchard Tiger Roll. 1st in GD.

LD 3(0)

1. Blevins’ Blevwil Stan Dup. Very immature and acted up for handler, good front and moves nicely in profile, lovely clean head and won the class on profile movement, RDCC & BP.

2. Meldrum’s Cintal King Arthur. A bit too much for me but overall a good balanced dog, clean head, just a little bit too much of him.

3. Miskelly’s Norchard Tiger Roll.

OD 1(0)

1. Cudlip’s Woferlow Voyager at Harvidene. Tri coloured, well muscled, moved like a train, good overall balance, just would prefer a bit more reach, pleasing head and expression, good bone, DCC.

PB 3(1)

1. Miskelly’s Papp’s Diamond Bellatrix Lestrange at Croobs (imp HUN) RAF NAF. Still to grow into her skin but lovely feminine head and moved nicely in profile, a little bum high at the moment but won this class on her profile movement.

2. Miskelly’s Sarkozi-Dacos Ireland at Croobs (imp HUN) RAF NAF. Very immature at 6 months along with novice handler, happy disposition, good feet and moved like a typical puppy.

GB 1(0)

1. Johnston’s Burnvale Queen of Diamonds. Still very immature, nice domed head, muscled behind and good pro sternum, good substance.

PGB 1(0)

1. Johnston’s Burnvale Black Diamond. Would prefer more substance, good pro sternum and in good weight, moved ok.

LB 2(0)

This class was a really close call and on any other given day could have swapped places.

1. Cudlip’s Harvidene Mamma Mia. Went like a train, good substance and muscle, covered ground but is far better when moved slower, even though I understand this is is a challenge for the handler, RBCC.

2. Meldrum’s Cintal Mable Dene. Really liked this bitch, beautiful head and expression just didn’t go as well as 1.

OB 2(0)

1. Blevins’ Blevwil Zenn. Really smart bitch, nicely muscled, pleasing head, moved really well, good substance whilst still retaining her femininity, BCC & BOB.

2. Meldrum’s Kimbleholme Dreamkeeper at Rumbleton. Really nice clean head, good bone and balance, just lacked the drive of 1.

VB 1(0)

1. Meldrum’s Malrich Sex In The City at Rumbleton. Lovely veteran bitch, still got lovely expression and shown in good muscled condition, moved nicely and in profile with enthusiasm, BV.
