Class 574 OD (6 Entries) Abs: 1

1st: 1596 LANGDON, Mr P Ch Huffish Rewrite The Stars With Atastar. CC& BOB. Having awarded him both a Group and a BIS win it is no secret that I have admired this stallion of a dog. Grand head of good length, defined chin; intelligent dark eyes. Good neck and shoulders. Adequate depth and breadth of chest and good spring of rib. Strong, well angulated hindquarters gave him some drive on the move. His dense, harsh coat is immaculately presented. I believe him to be a great ambassador for the breed.
