1st JS Dean Pearlbarn Pasha at Rugglestone.

A pale cream coated boy 13 months of age, he stood alone in his class today, he gave a fabulous performance, powering round the ring with confidence. He has a lovely masculine broad head and a deep muzzle with jet black pigment, a nice straight front and shoulders well laid back placing his legs well under his body, standing on compact neat feet. He is well off for bone with straight strong legs, which reflected in his movement it was effortless with excellent rear drive. I thought he had given his all but there was better to come when I moved him again in the challenge his movement was sound and powerful. I was happy to award him Best of Breed today.
