O(1)1. O’Connor’s Karlejay Gump Circle Of Life, pretty headed mature liver & white bitch of good type & sz, good depth throughout, ribs well back with adequate depth, coat of good texture & well muscled giving her strength throughout, this showed as she carried herself efficient around the ring, her more precise footfall & tidier front action earned her BOB.

Morton & Cameron’s Ewtor Fly Me To The Moon, 8mth dog who is very much a baby, just as he should be at this age, cheeky expression on well proportioned head with good breed type, body developing nicely but at that in-between stage, movement was as you’d expect from a loose raw baby buy he enjoyed himself in the ring, bonus.

IWS J(3)1.

Jh 6-11(1) 1. Delphine Storey 10yrs handling a WSS that at times wasn’t cooperative, she was sympathetic & didn’t lose her cool, she was mostly aware of where I was & adjusted herself & her dog accordingly, good shadowing & straight lines, she moved at a decent pace for her charge, well done. 12-16(3) These 3 young ladies were amazing & should be proud of themselves, it was a tough job to split them & in the end was nit picking. 1. Amelia Jayne Storey 13 yrs handling her pointer to perfection, standing & moving her dog to advantage she followed instructions well, her turns were sharp & lines straight, didn’t have to think when I asked for a reverse triangle & watched me as well as her dog, very professional. BJH. 2. Amy Mir a lot of the above remarks are the same for this young lady, moving at a good pace to show off her HWV to advantage, just occasionally slightly overstretched her dog. 3. Charlotte Robertshaw (13), completed a trio of future stars.
