1st: 5710 DAWS, Mrs Alicia Jayne & DAWS, Mr Lee Pelenrise Blow A Gasket. He is fit and soundly built. I wouldn’t want any more of him. he as typical features and good angles both end and he has muscular development. he goes with purpose and positive foot placement. BSB.

2nd: 5719 GRAY, Ms Charlotte Hafwenna How You Doin.6-month, only a baby, but he has potential. Liked his size and balance. he has good attitude and worked well with his handler.

2nd: 5733 PRIOR, Mrs Velda Simone Alger Desjiem Starman Of Whinchat (ai). 7-month and rather at that in-between stage at the moment. Head pleased in head, has good bone and feet. A touch longer in loin than the winner. He listened to his handler and used himself nicely on the move.

1st: 5705 BROWN & BURNS, Mr & Miss Robert & Anne Magregor Super Nude Around Pothouse. Very smart and has a good picture of the breed. lovely head, neck flows through lay of shoulder with return of upper arm. He has depth and spring of rib, to legs, which have balance of bone. Width to rump and short strong hocks. He goes with easy, action. This topped by a short weather proof coat. 

2nd: 5738 SAMRIA, Ms Genna Winterwell The Card Player (a.i). He is rangier and longer than I would want for this breed and he is still a puppy. He has a clean, typical head with good bone. Presented in super condition and coat. A touch steep in croup. Handled well and moved on with long stride.

Class 2735 JD (1 Entries) Abs: 0

1st: 5704 BROWN & BURNS, Mr & Miss Robert & Anne Magregor Four Letter Word For Pothouse. Flipping heck, I never expected to give a puppy such awards. However, he is just so correct in all departments. He is just about 12 -months so don’t think he will grow any more, nevertheless I am judging on the day and he couldn’t be got past. He is masculine, excellent proportions, depicting the breed throughout, from his beautiful head, strong muscular neck, skeletally, classic construction with nothing untoward. He is fit, muscular with close-fitting weather-proof coat. His temperament is way beyond his years and he has shape and accurate easy ground cover.  CC-BOB-BJ.

Class 2737 PGD (4 Entries) Abs: 0

1st: 5727 MAPES, Mrs Sally & MAPES, Mr Antony Agdenusher Mulberry. Big enough and I would prefer a shorter loin, but he did his job admirably and stand soundly on good legs and feet with smooth lines. He has a good personality and worked with his handler to produce a sound fluid gait, with firm shapely outline.  

2nd: 5743 SMITH, Mr James Robert Venatur Forest. Again, would not want him any bigger, in size or frame. He is very fit and has body and muscle. He stands on good legs, with bone and decent feet. His personality shines through to produce decent movement with carriage.

Width of rump and well-set tail. He has stylish sound action with commitment, which earned his the RCC

2nd: 5721 HAMMOND, Miss S M & COOKE, Mr L Seasham Jingle Jangle JW.At 2-years, not yet finished as the winner, but that’s not a bad thing. He is balanced for size. He has a pleasing head masculine and clean, with good eye and clean cheeks, down to muzzle with neat lip. He has angles both ends with short loin, to show type and outline. Handled well to give a sound firm form on the move.

1st: 5740 SIELSKI, Mrs Z Sh Ch Orchidstar Bolts Of Speed. Lovely size and clean outline, with masculinity that give a positive outline of the standard. He appeals in head, expressive eye smooth down to muzzle. Lovely shape of body with spring of rib, correct depth and neat elbow. He has a short strongly filled loin and correct croup to tail set. Has width of thigh, short hock, contributing to drive behind. in good order.

2nd: 5700 ADAMS, Mrs L D Sh Ch Tequesta Poldark JW. Fit, strong dog of pleasing proportions of length of body. Lovely head, clean strong neck. I found him a touch Heavey over his forequarters, which detracted from overall balance. He was expertly produced and worked with style with his talented handler; therefore, he cannot be overlooked.

Res: 5723 HAMMOND, Miss S M & COOKE, Mr L Seasham Show Me The Way JW

1st: 5743 SMITH, Mr James Robert Venatur Forest. Repeat.

2nd: 5735 RUSK, Mr J & Mrs V Valger Tuxedo At Booton. Standing this dog, fits the standard so well, but sadly did not perform today, to give a good estimation of himself, so could not go Highter, a shame. perhaps just an off day. 

Class 2741 SBB (1 Entries) Abs: 0

1st: 5726 KEY, Mrs Natasha Orchidstar Time To Chime.18-momth with pleasing head, showing typical features. She flows through neck from good shoulders and fore hand. She pleased for size and outline. Did not a lot wrong, the male just had more impulsion.

Class 2742 VB (2 Entries) Abs: 0

1st: 5703 BLAY, Mr M & Mrs B Sh Ch Barleyarch Skye At Longbarrow Sh.CM ShCEx VW. Feminine with totally classic lines perhaps some, should look at her to see type, as she shouts GSP. She fits the bill in construction and is in prime condition and muscle. Movement is lively, with correct stride and deportment. Well-deserved her wins in good company. ResCC-BV.

2nd: 5751 TAYLOR, Mrs P & TAYLOR - MORRIS, MRS H Drysika Cha Cha At Pelenrise. Touch longer cast, but honest and decent make and shape. She has breed features. in good order. Both are a credit to their owners.

Class 2743 MPB (1 Entries) Abs: 0

1st: 5717 FILBY, Ms A Brown & Mr C Desjiem Rebel Rebel (ai). What a lovely balanced GSP. A pleasure to lay hands on, as everything is in the right place and she has all the essentials. She has a silhouette depicting the standard and a super personality. Turned out in very good condition and coat. Worked with easy, free ground cover. Feel she must have a bright future. Still very young, but liked her a lot.

Class 2744 PB (2 Entries) Abs: 0

1st: 5753 WADDELL, Miss R A Magregor Walk Of No Shame. Well, this was obviously a fabulous litter, as I notice,1st. and 2nd. Are both siblings of my BOB., and have the same stamp of the breed. This bitch had a touch more finish and better underline at the moment over her sibling Loved her head, skeletally soundly made. Has bone strength and femininity and turned out in super body with the added plus of a weather proof coat with coarse topcoat. Economical mover with groundcover.    

2nd: 5747 STEWART, Mrs Veronique Magregor Take It All Off Levagrad. Didn’t know this one was sibling until I looked at the breeding as I do the critique, but now I know why I put ‘both well made, type, size and proportions, which is good for the breed’! I think this girl maybe having a false pregnancy, which is why her underline is a touch fuller.

Class 2745 JB (3 Entries) Abs: 1

1st: 5699 ADAMS, Mrs Claire Louise & ADAMS, Mr Karl Keigame Mystique Aurora JW.This is a lovely sort. She has a touch more maturity than the second placed. Very typical in shape and size, with lovely head piece, she has bone, body, present a good outline, not too long, or leggy. She settled to produce a quality picture on the move. Very lovely.

Class 2747 PGB (4 Entries) Abs: 1

1st: 5742 SMILLIE-GRAY, Mrs D & GRAY, Mr S Pelenrise Blow Me A Kiss From Oakberrow. I was very taken by this strong, feminine classy bitch. She has such a lovely head, quality bone, legs and feet. Each part fits through to the next to present such quality. Sometimes when a handler has a runner, the dog loses the continuity, but such is the character of this one, she just stepped up to the job and produced a lovely stride and lines. Her time will come.

2nd: 5729 MARTIN, Mrs & Mr E & D Sarscottah Enchanted At Lorabar. A touch rangier than the winner. She has a lovely eye and expression, her neck flows smoothly through to firm back, correct croup and tail set. She worked the ring well and held a firm shape.

3rd: 5737 RUSSELL, Mrs Lynda & RUSSELL, Miss Hayley Fraulynzway Hayley's Comet

Class 2748 LB (8 Entries) Abs: 0

1st: 5715 ELRINGTON, Ms D Tequesta Happy Valley. This lovely quality bitch was certainly up there in the challenge. She has super outline of the breed and is fit and muscular. She puts on such a lively true performance with commitment to the job. A real quality bitch, handled quietly in harmony with her charge. 

2nd: 5701 ANGUS, Mrs Laura Keigame Hearts Desire Of Sparkenhoe (ai) JW -. Again, she really pleased me throughout.  Overall, she appealed for balance, size and typical proportions. Very good in type with really good coat. Moved well, could at times just soften in topline. 

3rd: 5722 HAMMOND, Miss S M & COOKE, Mr L Seasham Kiss Me JW

Res: 5732 PEEBLES, Mrs Siobhan & PEEBLES, mr Kevin Seasham Too Much Heaven Jw

Class 2749 OB (8 Entries) Abs: 1

1st: 5702 BARNETT, Mrs Rhona Sh Ch Magregor Howl To The Moon Over Tibertich JW. Maybe not the most glamourous, but she has type and construction in abundance. Super head piece and right in outline, with quality bone, tight feet and excellent body properties. She moves with deportment and long, smooth, easy gait. I had never seen handler or bitch  before and the handler was so delighted, I thought it was her first ticket, until handler told me different. Very lovely.CC.

2nd: 5731 PEARSON, Mrs Wendy Ann Sh Ch Winterwell Lulu Moppet To Ladyhawke JW. Typical, sound, correct Sze and balanced and handled to display her quality. Easy to see why she has her title. She fits in all departments and moves accordingly with soundness and carriage.

Res: 5720 HAMMOND, Miss S M & COOKE, Mr L Sh Ch Seasham I Love To Boogie
