Dogs

Minor Puppy

1: BYRNE, Mrs J Amazing Forest Of The Dutch Grey At Enryb (imp Nld), 6-month-old and very well grown for his age, he presents a balanced outline stacked and he won the class on forehand angulation. He just needs to put his brain in gear.

2: GATT, Ms Maria Sireva Maestro, decent colour just a little raw at present. Would just prefer a little more layback of shoulder and this would have given him more reach in front. Well ribbed and in super condition.

Puppy

1: WHITEHEAD, Mrs Karen A Gunalt Back Chat From Stridview, such an exciting 9-month-old, chock full of promise. His outline is extremely typical, and he has a delightful head and expression. Just needs to firm in front. In super condition and puts his feet in the right place. He got better and better as the day went on and, in the challenge, I was sorely tempted, but time is on his side and the future is very bright for him. However, couldn’t resist him for the RCC and BP.

Junior

1: ALCORN, Mr D R & INGRAM, Mr Gavin Gunalt Roger That (a.i.), 15-month-old and masculine in outlook. Superb head and expression giving that noble look. Super topline and tailset. Could possibly be ribbed back more. Moved out well but could have used his tail to advantage. Just going through the teenage stage at the moment. In the challenge he was unsettled and I’m sure he will have better days.

Yearling

1; CHARLISH, Miss Ellen Sh Ch Gunalt The Hangover JW, classy, typy and a very decent dog indeed. He is already all of a piece with a delightful head and noble expression. Super for angulation, particularly good in front and he uses himself so well on the move putting his feet in the right place with an easy stride. Maybe for perfection he could have a little more leg length, but this is being hyper picky. His colour is superb, and he was in super condition. The overall package scored for me today and so was my CC & BOB.

2: PHILLIPS, Mr L Rivertone Retrograde, liked the head and expression on this dog and he is all male. Would prefer less slope to topline to be picky. Decent front but just needs to fill in chest. On the move he holds himself but could have a tad more reach in front.

3: LONGBOTTOM, Miss C R & Mrs A Gunalt Beehave JW

Post Grad

1: JENNINGS, Dr Lisa Wallaroo Romeo JW, decent colour and coat. He has a pleasing expression and his head is balanced. Decent neck into firm topline and he is well ribbed back. Balanced outline.

2: OSBORNE-FARDON, Mr Richard James Silberliss Bombadier, all male but not quite the expression of the winner. He too has a decent front and a good topline. Could just have carried himself better on the go round.

3: MARTINEZ, Miss Rebecca Jayne Meinweg Autumnal Frost

Limit

1: PORTER-MANNING, Mrs Angela & PORTER, Mr G Wallaroo Kynki Bootz Jw, decent dog and of correct type. He pleases for head and expression. Soundly made and has depth and decent ribbing. Good for balance and sound on the move.

2: PHILLIPS, Mr L Moon Shadow By Atria Cordis Rivertone (pol Imp), masculine head and pleasing to go over. A tad proud of his tail but he puts his feet in the right place. In super condition and balanced in outline.

3: MULLINGER, Mrs Alisha Emma Aladdin's Genie

Open

1: ALCORN, Mr D R & INGRAM, Mr Gavin Sh Ch Gunalt Hendricks. Have done this boy very well in the past giving him a group and a champion stakes win and so it would be no surprise that I rate him. He is very worthy of all that he has achieved, and he has a most typical outline and beautiful head and expression. Today I felt that he just lacked the sparkle that I have previously seen and so had to bow down to the youngsters today. Saying that, he is still a dog to be proud of.

2: SIMPSON, Mrs G Ch Sireva Emeyefive JW. Different in type to the winner and a wonderful colour. To go over him there is very little to change, and he is very balanced. He too has an excellent head and expression. Sadly he lost positivity behind today.

Good citizen

1: MARTINEZ, Miss Rebecca Jayne Meinweg Autumnal Frost, 3rd in PG, good colour and pleasing outline. A tad proud of his tail. Good depth and well boned

Sp Beg

1: JENNINGS, Dr Lisa Wallaroo Romeo JW

2: OSBORNE-FARDON, Mr Richard James Silberliss Bombadier

3: MARTINEZ, Miss Rebecca Jayne Meinweg Autumnal Frost

Vet

1: MCMAHON, Mrs Patricia & MCMAHON, Mr Anthony Ir Sh Ch Silverkelvin Jupiter Over Magdala, 7-year-old and in fine fettle and a real credit to his owner. Presents a very typical outline and is very balanced. Pleasing head and expression. Good topline and correct croup. Moved with purpose. BV

Bitches

Minor puppy

1: SIMPSON, Mrs G Sireva Maze, 6-month-old and full of promise, she is a super colour and is very good to go over. On the move she uses herself well but will get better with experience, champion quality for sure.

2: ALLISON, Mrs Taya & WHEELER, Mr Trevor Sireva Match To Kuantan, 6-month-old and very typical in outline, she just needs confidence, and she will be away.

Puppy

1: ALLEN, Mr G T & BOTT, Mr P & MORGAN, Mrs A Gunalt Conversation With Allenie, 9-month-old with a breathtaking outline stacked and so beautifully put together. Her head and expression are a delight, and she presents a typical shape. To go over there is very little to change, and she was in super condition. On the move she is sound and has plenty of scope. She just needs to grow in confidence and then she is title bound for sure,

2: ANDERSON, Mrs C & Mr J Gunalt Gift Of The Gab, very pleasing for type and she is the correct shape. Decent topline and pleasing head could just have a little more angle in front. Moves well on the right track and she too could hold a title. B Sp Beginner and delighted to see her top the SB group.

3: INGRAM, Miss H Gunalt Chinwag

Junior

1: ANDERSON, Mrs C & Mr J Gunalt Gift Of The Gab

2: MASKELL RAYNER, Mrs & Miss & Mrs S & G & C Brownbank Willow With Raystans, pleasing for size and shape, she has good depth but just lost her topline on the move today. Good colour and coat and balanced all through.

3: WEST, Mrs Joanne & WEST, Mr Campbell Gunalt Frequency By Hantu (a.i.)

Yearling

1: PAVEY, Mr J Evans & Mr P Rivertone Inevitable At Joneva, what a really lovely bitch this is, full of type and quality. Her head is superb, and she has a great expression. She is top size yet retains a very feminine outlook. Her condition could not be faulted. She flows from head to tail and on the move has an extremely free and economical action putting her feet in the right place. Add to this handling of the highest order and you have the complete package. Certain title holder. BCC

2: DYER, Mrs S & ODDIE, Mrs Samantha Sharnphilly Annie Mac JW, another really lovely bitch but of slightly different type, and she too has a delightful head and expression. She is very well made and is wonderfully ribbed. On the move she is very sound and stylish but not the reach in front of the winner today. Can see them changing places on more than one occasion. RCC, which I understand gives her a well-deserved title on the new system.

3: ROWBURY, Ms Sandra & TRANQUADA, Ms Daniela Rivertone Confetti Over Stormdancer

Post Grad

1: ANDERSON, Mrs C & Mr J Gunalt Gift Of The Gab

2: BALMER, Mr & Mrs Paul & Tracy Trapaleba Dior, pleasing for type, just needs to settle into herself, but she moved a lot better in this class.

3: HOWARD, Mr Timothy Akwamar Legend Of Zelda Von Chalgroveian

Limit

1: LONGBOTTOM, Miss R & MILBY, Mr P Gunalt Curtain Call JW, very typical bitch of quality and very balanced in outline. She has a delightful head and expression and strong neck into firm topline. Good for angles and puts her feet in the right place. Will title

2: DENNIS, Mrs M Silverweis Sparkler, decent bitch of good colour. Good to go over and she looks great in profile, just felt she could have been cleaner coming towards me, but she is of excellent type.

3: ALCORN, Mr D R & INGRAM, Mr Gavin Gunalt Mixer

Open

1: TIERNEY, Ms G Sh Ch Gunalt Elderflower At Greyfurs JW, really lovely bitch of real type and quality. Super head and expression, delightful to go over and moved out with style. Can see why she carries a title, and she will win more for sure. Today in the challenge she lost her topline and so had to pay the price.

2: PHILLIPS, Mr L Sh Ch Rivertone Head Above Water, another really lovely bitch with a super head and expression, she is top size yet retains femininity and uses herself so well on the move. In super condition and well handled.

3: PILATOVA, Miss Sabina Sabsky Svratka JW

1: ANDERSON, Mrs C & Mr J Gunalt Gift Of The Gab

2: BALMER, Mr & Mrs Paul & Tracy Trapaleba Carrera, 4th in junior, decent for size and type, she has depth and good bone. Moved out ok.
