Thank you so much to the exhibitors today and what a warm fabulous day it was in fact the heat did build as the day went on. I must say a huge thank you to my stewards Preston and Gavin who allowed me to keep to time. Thank you again to the committee of Welks the rings were fabulous and allowed the dogs to use the rings to display true movement.

I must say my notes last time I judged mention mouths which I must comment again on. Please check them. However the Tan on them was very good overall. Thanks once again.
