1. Ch/Ir Ch. Leech’s Gavelkind Conquistador by Jamchala. Masculine dog with lovely expression and good head proportions, correct neck, excellent top-line and tail but he could be a little more compact, good coat and colour, holds his outline very nicely and has good profile movement and a strong rear.

1. Mackay’s Ch. Shiroblam Rumba. Nice type but was a little bum high and could have used himself a little better on the move but he is steady and sound, good head, eye and ears, bone and overall substance, correct proportions, compact but just lacked a little enthusiasm for top awards.
