1ST Redeswell Albus Allure (Mrs L R Prew). Very raw puppy but has all the essentials. Lovely head shape with clean cheeks and good chiselling beneath the eyes. Clean neck leading to well laid shoulder. Correct depth of chest for age. Well ribbed. Little bum high at the moment but this will come right. Nicely made hindquarters with moderate bend of stifle. Moved with confidence on a good stride.

1ST Kingsmist Remember Me (Mr M J & Mrs A E Harding). Very impressive puppy. Although still raw he has everything within his frame to suggest that as he matures he will be well worth the wait. Very noble in head with well defined occiput, clean cheeks and good chiselling. Neck of good length leading to well laid shoulder and corresponding length and return of upper arm. Chest correct depth of age with well developing ribcage. Topline held well stacked and moving. Well made hindquarters with good width of second thigh. Well let down hocks with parallel rear cannons. Excellent bone and feet. Needs to tighten in his movement but this will come - he has a long, steady stride with good rear drive. BPD

Difficult class as all varied in size and type

1ST Clandrift Diplomat (Mrs M & Mr I Trotter). Won this class on his very efficient. ground covering movement. Up to size but still with good overall balance. Pleasing head with well defined occiput and clean cheeks and muzzle of good length. Long neck leading to well laid shoulder and return of upper arm. Still needs to drop in chest to fill his frame. Level topline and well held tail. Strong, well muscled hindquarters with good width of second thigh. Excellent bone and feet. Just needs time to come to his best

2ND Flyenpyg First Sight (Mr & Mrs Houseman). I preferred his head as he has more defined chiselling beneath the eyes but he didn’t have quite the overall balance of the winner. Clean neck leading to well laid shoulder. Good depth of chest and spring of rib. Well made hindquarters. Excellent bone and feet. Moved on a good stride - just a little close going away.

1ST Gadhelic Rum Tum Tugger to Benbreac (Mr J & Mrs P Davies). Good overall balance displaying correct height to length ratio. Noble head with smooth cheeks and well chiselled beneath the eyes. Clean neck leading to well laid shoulder. Deep in chest and well ribbed back. Scores in hindquarters with good width of second thigh and strong, well let down hocks. Excellent bone and feet. Moved on a long, unhurried stride.

2ND Elgert Future Past (Ms G Osborn). Really liked this dog. Excellent overall balance. Lean head of good length and well defined occiput. Clean cheeks and well placed ears. Long neck leading to excellent lay of shoulder and corresponding return of upper arm. Deep in chest with well sprung ribcage. Strong, powerful hindquarters with good width of second thigh. Excellent bone and feet. Presented to perfection. Sadly something spooked him just before moving resulting in him not giving his best and ultimately he paid the price. Otherwise he would have been in contention for top honours.

1ST Sh Ch Jesham Baronet (Mr D A & Mrs J Bennett). Like a good wine this dog has taken time to come to his best. Excellent overall balance. Head of good length with clean cheeks and well chiselled beneath the eyes. Long neck leading to well laid shoulder and corresponding length and return of upper arm. Chest of good depth with well sprung ribcage. Hindquarters of good shape and well muscled. Good bone and feet. In excellent coat and condition. His movement is copybook - accurate fore and aft then in profile he really covers the ground well but not rushed in anyway - smooth, purposeful and unhurried. CC and BOB.

2ND Prince Arthur vom Belauer See at Nadavin (Imp Deu) JW (Mrs J, Mr C & Mr U F Holgate, Holgate & Baumann). Another quality dog who is well balanced all through. Head of good length with well defined occiput and clean cheeks. Neck long leading to well laid shoulder and corresponding length of upper arm. Deep chest with good spring of rib and firm topline held well throughout. Strong hindquarters with well let down hocks. Good bone and feet. Moved well - not quite the length of stride as the winner but worthy RCC.

Well made hindquarters with moderately bent stifles and well let down hocks. Moved well on a good stride.
