Stunning Class of puppies!

1^st Ciechonska’s ; Coppers Champagne On Ice at Aoibheanne.

Really fell for this lad, he simply flowed from his refined gentle head to his perfect Tail set. Great front with well laid shoulders, good upper arm and plenty of forechest already; excellent bone, deep chest with ribs well back. Lovely turn and width of stifle and short from hock to heel.  Was very sound on the move for his age, especially in profile. Shown in great coat and condition. Surely he must have a very bright future. I wish he were mine! RBOB & BP.

2^nd Gisby & Pike’s; Suteresett Milky Way with Scarletti.

3^rd Hall’s; Shenanegin Stardrift at Glennara.

Junior: 6-2a.

1^st Gisby & Pike’s; Suteresett Milky Way with Scarletti.

2^nd in puppy, pushed 1^st very hard but just being that little bit bigger and rangier at the moment. His head for me a stunning, long and lean with lovely chiselling and a wonderful expression. Strong, reachy neck with great angulations all through, quality bone and neat feet. Moved really well, maintaining his lovely outline at all times. Another I would like to take home!

2^nd Rorke’s; Cataluna Pole Position.

3^rd Brady’s; Reddins Frolic among Amberlight.

Post Grad: 6-3a

1^st Waterton’s; Lynwood Kissed By An Angel at Sandstream.

 Quality bitch of lovely type, pretty head with a definite mischievous look in those eyes! Excellent neck and shoulders, good front and feet, tight elbows with good length and depth of rib. Stifles muscular and well bent which she used to advantage on the move. Presented in excellent order. Considered her for more but she was determined she wasn’t going to stand today!

2^nd Rorke’s; Cataluna Pole Position.

3^rd Pullen’s; Seowns Argyle

Limit: 1

1^st Bartholomew’s; Kirkavagh Istabraq with Bartholeys

Nice shape to this young dog, well made and balanced all through. Strongly built body with good angulations both front and rear, nice bone and feet, good depth to chest and firm through loin. Felt he was a little out of condition today and wasn’t totally happy with his surroundings. Moved ok.

Open: 3

1^st Evans’; Brabrook Marbela

In the past I haven’t been this girls biggest fan, but today she looked a picture! Her head isn’t for me, but standing she is balanced and racy with a beautiful, eyecatching outline. Really well made all through which showed  in her excellent movement, both up and down and in profile with great reach and drive never altering her topline. Put down in lovely hard condition with excellent presentation. Well handled.  Was very happy to award her BOB. Heard she later went on to take Group 2, well done.

2^nd Rorke’s;  Cataluna Captivation to Zakhan

3^rd Kirkavagh Polonia with Bartholeys
