LABRADORS P (1) 1 and BP Coodes Warringhah Tomouron Gundagai 6mth black d very raw as you would expect but he has a pleasing overall shape with ample bone and compact feet, head is clean but still to develop in width and he has a lovely dark eye yielding a soft yet intelligent expression, shoulders are well placed and matched by good hind angulation, gave a good account of himself on the move just very loose all through (2,1) 1 and RBOB Pattisons Dylsonleigh Titan For Pattilands 12 mth quality yellow d who I have recently given a puppy group to. He has the most beautiful and balanced outline with good bone and substance all through without being overdone in any way. Head is developing well and he uses his ears to enhance his already appealing expression, ribs are well sprung, chest is deep, loin short and strong and thighs broad and muscular, he is well angulated fore and aft, today he took a little time to settle on the move but a dog ‘having a moment’ does not alter its construction or quality and in the challenge he settled down somewhat to win RBOB against the more fluid moving open winner but it was a close decision and I am sure this lad is destined to do some serious winning PG (4) 1 Robinsons Willow In the River 2.5 yr yellow with the best shape of the class and therefore the most balanced in the class, she has a lovely head and expression, strong neck and straight well boned forelegs, she has ample spring of rib and a firm topline with short strong loin on to a well set ever wagging tail, an adequate mover when settled 2 Heads Quinstone Sapphire Sunset this 2 year chocolate b has much to admire, she is strongly boned and stands true in front on good compact feet, a fraction longer in body than the winner but with a decent topline which she held on the move 3 Edwards Howcastle Josephine Of Chelmscote L (3) 1 Scutchers Winsleywood Wicked JW this 21mth yellow b was the best mover in this class, she is of medium size, feminine and stands and moves as one with her handler, good front with elbows well under body, barrelled ribcage and broad across the rear, went forward with purpose 2 Ganneys Darrabol Sand Dollar (ai) this yellow d presents a clean and balanced outline although his head whilst masculine, could have a little less wrinkle, however he has a very good neck and strong body and is a sound and adequate mover holding his topline as he goes round 3 Edwards Chelmscote One To Remember O (5,1) 1 and BOB Ganneys Darrabol Amphitrite With Allenie (ai) JW a well proportioned yellow b with a feminine head and kind expression, straight well boned forelegs and compact feet, good ribcage and a strong firm topline with muscular well developed hindquarters and strong hocks allowing her to move with purpose and good drive, pleased to award her BOB today and to hear she made the shortcut for BIS 2 Coodes Warringahs the Bluff JW SGWC at almost 7 years old this black d is in super condition, he has a handsome head with good width to skull and strong jaw with eyes giving a biddable expression, body is well ribbed with short strong loin, broad thighs with correct hind angulation and moving true all ways 3 Scutchers Winsleywood Witchcraft JW

I was told afterwards that I awarded this girl BP around 4 years ago from a large entry where she went on to win BPIS so I am mightily pleased to see she is now titled, congratulations ! 2 GSP Seasham Thrill Me at Manlicher this young girl makes a very pleasing outline and whilst I would have liked a little more bone on her there is much to like, she has a feminine head with dark eye and neat ears, a good reach of neck, ample forechest and a firm level topline, she is well muscled all through particularly in the rear and covers the ground with ease, I am sure she could work all day if she had to 3 G/Ret Berrymeade Dream On with Jasperleigh JW SGWC

OPEN STAKES (18,6) This was a really good class which produced quality right down the line 1 GSP Seasham Too Much Heaven, I have judged this 2 yr old b before but I don’t think I’ve ever seen her show like she did today where she never put a foot wrong , she is such a neat package with a clean and feminine well proportioned head and the best of fronts, well laid shoulders and tidy elbows, she is well angulated in the rear with visible muscling to her thighs and on the move she was smooth and accurate 2 IRWS Roanjora Cremant De Savoie Avec Eusanit JW, I love this elegant and masculine boy, he has a super head and eye, lovely neck and shoulders , excellent topline and rear angles, he covers the ground with good strides and power from the rear, today he just wasn’t as concentrated on what he was there for which put him down to 2nd but I still think he is a super specimen 3 SH CH Heniveruce King Of Brewers For Aprilflash SHCex
