Whippet

P (2,2) 1.  Murton’s Cyangrange Carpe Diem – 7 month old brindle boy who is well balanced front and rear. Masculine head in correct proportion, with a strong underjaw and well set oval eye.  Very good front construction, with moderate bone and a slight spring of pastern. Really liked his overall balance and shape, and he has a good depth of brisket for his age with nice tuck up.  Stands over a lot of ground.  He kept his topline on the move, and moved out well fore and aft and in profile.  Pleased to award him BP. 2. Jones’ Silvergarth Selene – 8 month old shapely fawn and white bitch, who is finer and more compact than 1. Feminine head with a sweet expression and gentle disposition.  Fine, rose shaped ears and a correct scissor bite. Shoulder well laid back, with a good depth of brisket and tuck up. Moved well. Preferred the overall shape of 1.

J (4,3) 1. Hutchinson’s Zenobia Just An Illusion With Sweetaurora – 13 month old brindle dog of nice size, who I had judged as a puppy and I feel has matured well.  Excellent typey head, flat skull with slight stop and equal length of muzzle. Correct eye shape with fine, correctly placed rose shaped ears.  Elegant neck leading into a well laid back shoulder, with equal length of upper arm and excellent return of upper arm. Straight forearms sitting directly underneath the withers, moderate bladed bone and slight spring of pastern. Lovely shapely underline and topline, with a strong well-muscled back and broad rear quarters. Stands over a lot of ground and shown in firm muscular condition. On the move he excelled in profile movement, moving with a free and easy stride and grace and elegance. Very much liked his head carriage on the move.  Excellent reach and drive with a daisy cutting action - he floated around the ring holding his topline beautifully.  Pleased to award him BOB. 2. Salkeld and Graham’s Dalerafenn Follow A Dream – 16 month old fawn bitch who is very feminine, with a beautiful head and perfect fine, rose shaped ears correctly set. Strong underjaw with correct eye set and shape. Elegant neck, flowing into a well laid-back shoulder and good front construction. Moderate bladed bone and slight spring of pastern.  Lovely deep brisket and gentle rise over her strong loin. Correct rear angulation with good turn of stifle and well let down hocks. Excellent feet.  Just preferred the scope and reach and drive of 1. 3. Mcauley’s Sambeclo New Beginning.

Excellent depth of brisket flowing into a good tuck up and gentle rise over the loin.  Broad across the rear with good angulation and well-muscled behind. Holds her topline nicely on the stack and on the move. Moved out well in profile, just preferred the front construction of 1. 3.Salkeld and Graham’s  Dalerafenn Follow A Dream
