1st: REYNOLDS’ Vanitonia Swashbuckler Of Glenariff

At 14 months is well put together, mature in body and in good coat and shows a wonderful disposition. He has a well shaped head with strong neck of good length leading to nicely sloping shoulders. Well boned without being over done. Well ribbed through with plenty of length and depth. Firm couplings ensure a correct top line. Well angulated quarters which he used to good effect on the move. Presented to advantage. Showed well here and then in the challenge to win CC and Best of Breed.

2nd:NESBITT’s, Creeaark Austin Healy From Chabrouille

Not as forward as the winner but still plenty to like and time to develop. He has a good head which will only get better. Straight front and good length of body. He too was a happy youngster moving well around the ring.

1st: BROWN’s Maursett Meadie

Just out of junior and a bit over enthusiastic here. His handler had to work hard today. Well balanced head with strong neck and straight in front. Good depth to his ribs but needs to fill out. Moved well. Should mature nicely.

2nd: HARVEY’s Malbecmogs Pesky Partridge

Has a good reach of neck and length of ribcage. Well angulated stifles giving strength to his quarters. He did not move as well as the winner here.

Mature and well put together. Strong in head with developed stop and good expression. Strong neck of good length leads to sloping shoulders and straight well boned front. Well bodied with good rear angulation. He moved the best in this class.

2nd:PICKERING’s Wahnahnish Superman Of Hajacan (imp Nld)(ai)

Balanced in body with plenty of depth and width to his chest. Straight front. Good width to his quarters and well turned stifles. He did not move as well as the winner and could carry less weight to advantage.

1st: STEVENSON’s Knockhalon Put A Spell On You

Just 6 months and so sweet and honest. Good head for her age. Neck is a decent length and leads nicely into a straight front and well laid shoulders. Well bodied for her age. She has plenty of rear angulation and moved well for one so young. Best Puppy.

1st: FURNELL’s Bebecova Scarlet Witch

At almost 18 months is developing well along correct lines. Pleasing head without exaggeration, strong neck of correct length leads to straight front of good width and well angulated shoulders. Well ribbed back, just needs to fill out as you would expect at this age. She has strong well angulated quarters and moved well. Reserve CC, well deserved.

2nd: TAYLOR & HILTON’s Delsaux Fly Me To The Moon

Old fashioned type with feminine head and well set ears giving typical expression. Strong in neck and well laid shoulders, elbows nicely tucked in. Good length of body. Not as fluent on the move, giving her handler a hard time.

Another good one here. Balanced in head with kind expression and plenty of shape. Good length of neck. Balanced body with good length of rib, strong couplings and correct depth to her chest. Good rear angulation which produced correct movement.
