2nd – Coates’ – JASPALIE GHOST – I really like this 5 yr white boy but he was out moved by the winner today. He is so typical, balanced, with a beautiful head.

Strong neck, correct angulation front and rear, deep chest, well sprung ribs, short loin and good tailset. He moved soundly but just not driving from the rear today.
