2nd Rorke’s Zakhan’s Diamond Jack- Dog who was not as balanced as my winner and needs time to fill is frame, masculine head, with dark eye, correct ear set, moderately long neck, straight forelegs leading to small feet, well bent stifle, needs to strengthen in the rear, moved ok. RBOB

Curly Coated Retriever

Puppy (2,0a)

1st Carrick’s Tessmene Tickety Boo – 10 months old black bitch who appealed for breed type, feminine wedge shaped head, dark eye, medium length neck into correct shoulder placement with corresponding return of upper arm, straight forelegs leading to tight feet, deep chested, well sprung ribs, slight tuck up, moderate bend of stifle, moved well but just lacked the drive, but it was hot and in the challenge she moved much better.

2nd Richards & Flaher’s Tessmene Icing On The Cake By Kakemusha – Litter sister to my winner, this liver bitch similar remarks apply, but I preferred the head on my winner, moved soundly.

Post Graduate (1,0abs)

1st Janks’ Tessmene Tempest Sky At Beauport – Liver dog with a masculine head, straight forelegs leading to round feet, deep chested, well sprung ribs, moderate bend of stifle, not in best of coats and just carrying a tadge too much weight at the moment, on the move he would not stop pacing.

Open (3, 1a)
