1st Griffin’s Griffial Make It Count – 7 month blue roan bitch, cleanly chiselled head with a square muzzle while remaining feminine. Cat-like, tight feet with good bone. Balanced angulation and well sprung ribs. Moved well in all angles. Best Puppy

1st Anderson & Foster’s Zakova Baloo Moonshine at Sabaloo – 13-month blue roan bitch who was just a little cracker. Loved her for her compact, sturdy structure. Pleasing expression with dark eye and low-set ears, with square muzzle and clean chiselling to her head. Strong neck leading to well-placed shoulders and good forechest. Well-developed chest and good depth of brisket. Moved well although her handler needs more practice to get even more from her, and I was pleased to see he had a crash course by the stakes class. Best of Breed
2nd Hutton-Baber’s Esqueen Following Star at Babtonkelpie (Imp Pol) NAF – 19 months blue roan bitch with a dark, round eye. Good bone and coby body. Didn’t have the development in chest of my winner, just feel she needs more time to mature.
