1. 28, MILLER, MR L, RAVENSETT CALVARO (D)

Lovely expression with equally proportioned head on a lean neck. Good shoulder angulation with a deep chest in brisket. Muscular, rounded bone and tight feet. Good spring of ribs, coat has slight wave, but free from curl and well feathered. Had a little tendency to shift rear slightly to the right on the move today.

PGD/B: 3 entries (1 abs)

1. 25, HOWARTH, Mr D & Mrs J, MOORBROOK OWDID THATAPPEN JW (B)

This young lady stood out as she entered the ring with her elegance and expression. Lovely head with a well angulated shoulder leading to well-rounded bone in front legs and neat feet. Chest deep in brisket. Level topline leading to a feely and happy moving tail. She moved with grace but has a powerful drive. Went BOB. Also lovely to see she went RBIS.

2. 29, SMITH, Mr D T & Mr E, GOLD MERCURY BEAUTY STYLE OF MEADOWRUSH (IMP RUS) (B)

Strong head leading to straight topline. Shoulders lead to well boned forelegs with tight feet that are protected by hair. Nice chest depth. Stood squarely but would prefer freer movement in rear to show more power.

OD/B: 2 entries

1. 27, KELLY, Mrs, CORNSETT THE WISE ONE (D)

Kind expression on a well-proportioned head set on a long, muscular neck leading into a well angulated shoulder. Nice, deep brisket with well boned forelegs. Well sprung ribs, leading to good thigh and hock. Moved more freely when going forward with purpose. Went RBOB.

2. 30, SMITH, Mr D T & Mr E, BOURNEHOUSE SECRET SUNSET OF MEADOWRUSH (D)

Another lovely, kind head leading to strong shoulders and well-boned forelegs with neat feet. Well sprung of rib and level back. Would prefer straighter, freer movement from hock.
