MPD (3/1)

1st Johnson's Cremino Celebrity. Lovely young black male of nice size for age. Very attractive head and expression with good eye colour. Lovely reach of neck. Lovely front and rear angulations. Excellent topline, coat, tail and tail-knit. Good bone. Slight toeing in that doesn't distract from his good movement. BP and RBOB.

2nd Hinckley's Carpenny His Nibs. Black male, overweight on the day which did nothing for a poor shoulder construction and affected his movement and reach of neck. Nice harsh coat with excellent tail and tail-knit. Would have liked to see him moved with more drive and energy.

MPB (6/4)

1st Lloyd's Henthea Daisy. Yellow bitch with lovely clean outline, tail slightly bushy but otherwise correct harsh coat. Lovely reach of neck leading to a good topline. Good front and rear angulations. Feminine head with sweet expression good bone, correct feet, moved well.

2nd Boulden's Rumhill Gambit. Black bitch with an immature head that could do with more stop and width, exacerbated by being set on an overweight body. Kind expression with nice eye colour. Temperament on the shy. Would have preferred a better shoulder assembly and stronger topline. Excellent bone and nice feet. Loose on the move but should tighten up as she matures.

1st Metcalfe's Rumhill Bertie Wooster by Baileydale. Mature Chocolate dog of good size with lovely masculine head retaining kind expression. Nice reach of neck leading to good topline and tail. Good depth of chest, slightly longer in loin which does not distract from the quality dog he is. Good front and rear angulations. A dog that stood well, showing off good bone and nice feet.

OD (3/0)

1st Wagstaff & Venables' Kimbajak Precious Metal JW. Yellow dog too strong in the head and jowly for my liking. Good eye colour. Strong short coupled body with good front and rear angulations.
