Pretty head, fine muzzle, well set ears and excellent nose pigment. Good length of neck leading into well placed shoulders. Level topline and well angulated rear.

Very pretty head and expression, dark eyes and well placed ears of good size and well fringed which she used to advantage. Good reach of neck fitting smoothly into well her laid shoulders.

2. Walklett’s Farthinghall Dainty Doris at Angullyon. Slightly longer cast than winner so not quite so balanced. Good topline, adequate reach of neck, slender fine boned legs, good spring of rib and well constructed rear. Her nicely presented coat was of good texture.

3. Turner’s Nimpfa Elite Pillango at Feyeta

LB (7,3abs)

1. Orchard’s Panspayon Pennyroyale JW. Stood out for me in this class, for her classical balanced outline and quality well presented coat.

Feminine well proportioned head with finely pointed muzzle, large, well fringed ears that she uses to advantage and expressive dark eyes.

3. Neachell’s Gleniren I'adora at Suttonpark

OB (4) A competitive class any of these quality ladies are more than capable of winning a CC, splitting hairs and pleasing to have so much choice.

1. Robb’s Ch Gleniren Miracle Starmaker. In profile this ultra feminine well balanced girl is very striking and has she great ring presence too. Very pretty and feminine head, dark eyes framed by well set ears with plenty of fringing. Under her immaculately presented silky coat, she is well constructed throughout, from her well laid shoulders, into good forehand, level topline, well plumed tail and nicely angulated rear. She is the ultimate showgirl, showing herself off to best advantage naturally standing foursquare and on the move she has a light and free flowing gait. In sparkling form today, she put in a faultless performance and I kept being drawn to her both in her class and the challenge. Delighted to award her the BCC, BOB and happy to see she was later placed Toy Group 3.

2. Ryan, Roosens & Goessens Ch/multi Ch Uppercut Daydream Believers with Feorlig (Imp Bel) JW Ww'24. Another top quality elegant girl, who has the most beautiful head and expression, dark eyes all framed by her well set and shaped ears with an abundance of fringing. She is well made throughout with a very good forehand with good length of neck leading to well laid shoulders, firm level topline and high set well plumed tail, with everything fitting together very smoothly to give her a pleasing flow to her outline all topped of with an immaculately presented silky coat. She moved with style and elegance around the ring and was true in both front and rear. RBCC. It was really hard to separate these two girls, but I only have one CC so a decision had to be made, today just felt that Starmaker had that tiny bit more sparkle and ‘look at me’ attitude.

3. Morrell’s Ch Athene vom Schwabenhof for Temelora (Imp Deu)

VB (2,1abs)

1. Nash’s Ookiimimi Just Imagine. Hard to believe this girl is a veteran of 11 years, shown in great condition for her age, very bright and alert. Pleasing head proportion and good ear shape, excellent pigment and clear dark eyes. She still has a good outline and is well constructed with good spring of rib and fine bone. Moved out enthusiastically and soundly retaining her topline. Best Veteran.
