SBD/B (2,0)

1st: 3316 SOMERTON’S Jaxinorydax Gossip Gal Taf

Nicely balanced throughout with good forechest. Pleasing head and expression. Held a level topline on the move and showed good profile action, although I would prefer cleaner movement both coming and going. BSB

2nd: 3319 TURTON’S Madrebambino Slinky Gal At Scipsar

Pleasing front assembly. A little weaker through the hindquarters than 1, which made the difference today. Moved soundly enough.

MPD (1,0)

1st: 3309 JENNINGS’ Jenivons Time To Shine

Pleasing head and expression with good forechest. Well-knuckled feet, good croup and strong through the loin. A promising, well-balanced puppy with much to like. BPIB

PD (1,0)

1st: 3302 ASHBY’S Jaxinorydax Screenshot Dis

Conical head with a pleasing expression. Good front assembly and typical puppy action on the move. Feet still need to knuckle up, but time is very much on his side.

LD (2,0)

1st: 3301 ASHBY’S Rayol Dallas Cowboys At Jaxinorydax JW

Pleasing head and expression with a lovely dark eye and excellent chiselling. Good front assembly and well muscled throughout. Moved soundly and presented a pleasing overall picture.

2nd: 3307 HEELS’ Daxanory Menacing Awesome

A little stronger and more masculine in head than I would prefer and slightly longer through the loin than 1. Moved soundly enough but was somewhat wary of his surroundings on the day.

OD (2,0)

1st: 3312 RYCROFT & RYCROFT’S Ch Jacksondax Hornet Hurrah At Trisensara JW ShCEx

Balanced, well-proportioned head with a pleasing expression. Good forechest and a firm, level topline. Well balanced throughout and sound on the move, covering the ground with purpose and maintaining his shape. BD & BOB

2nd: 3304 GRAHAM’S Ch Marvale Chancellor At Ravold JW

Stands over a little more ground than 1 and was not quite as clean going away. However, he has a lovely front assembly and presented a pleasing overall picture. Excellent temperament and a wonderfully happy disposition.

VD (1,0)

1st: 3306 HEELS’ Ch Daxanory Menacing Dennis

7 years. A nicely balanced dog with a pleasing head and expression. Good feet, clean going away and easy, sound movement. Beginning to show his age a little, but retained sufficient quality and soundness to take RBD & BVIB.

MPB (1,0)

1st: 3310 JENNINGS’ Jenivon's Standing Ovation

Lovely puppy with a conical head and pleasing dark eye. Good feet and nicely balanced for her age. Still needs to tighten through the front and tidy behind, but moved easily and has much to like.

PB (1,0)

1st: 3315 SMALL’S Clentry Walking In Memphis

Still very much a baby. Muzzle currently a little long in proportion to skull, but she has good forechest, pleasing bone and nice feet. Good through the croup. Still immature through the hindquarters but moved easily and should continue to develop with maturity.

YB (1,0)

1st: 3305 GRAHAM’S Melriding Kaiserine At Ravold

Pleasing dark eye and good forechest. A little unhappy with the hall and surroundings today and needs to grow in confidence, but she settled once moving and showed herself more positively.

LB (2,0)

1st: 3314 RYCROFT & RYCROFT’S Raajput's Dancer Divaa With Trisensara JW

Pleasing head and nicely balanced overall. Good croup and maintained her shape well on the move, covering the ground freely in profile.

2nd: 3308 JENNINGS’ Melriding True Colours At Jenivon

Feminine head and expression with a good front assembly. Feet could be tighter and I would prefer cleaner hind movement going away. Nevertheless, a pleasing bitch overall.

OB (5,1)

1st: 3303 ASHBY’S Raajput's Canadian Winter With Wakywilks

Very pleasing overall make and shape with good forechest and well-developed musculature. Easy, ground-covering profile movement and clean both coming and going. Her balance, soundness and movement won her the class and BB.

2nd: 3313 RYCROFT & RYCROFT’S Chidax Sahara Sand By Trisensara JW

Another quality bitch with a pleasing head and expression. Easy and free in profile movement, although just a little untidy going away today. Two good bitches and they could easily change places on another day. RBB

3rd: 3311 PARKER’S Luckytails Skye At Zorionadax JW

VB (1,0)

1st: 3317 STARK’S Ch Adnerbs Won Vision Of Gobannium JW OSW VW

7½ years. Good forechest and pleasing feet. Beginning to show her age, particularly through the hindquarters where I would prefer a little more strength, but she remains a sound, willing mover and acquitted herself well.
