BSB 172 - Glenmaurangi Aurora of Lochdora (Mrs H Bishop)

This is such a lovely breed and I thought quite a good entry. The opening paragraph of your standard calls for a build that can be compared to a weight-carrying hunter. I felt many did not really meet this and were more English in build than Gordon. Some mucky colours. Presentation was excellent.
