PD

1. Burnvale Echoes and Shadows

7m old black blanket with a lovely head and sweetest of expressions. Lovely spring of rib, good legs and feet with enough ground clearance. In profile lovely length of neck, correct shoulder placement. He won this class on his movement.

2. Kumamatata Gon with The Wind

10m old tri. Good head with clean eye and correct expression. Developing a lovely fore-chest. He is not as mature as one and still needs to tighten in front. He will come together, and places will change.

14m old very smart youngster. Cracking head and expression, strong muscular neck, level topline. Stood on good legs and tight feet. Didn’t put a foot wrong. He stood alone but he had attitude to die for. Quality boy who I am sure will do well.
