1. Justice & Ford's LIRIC SPECIAL FANFARE WITH SHILLEY. What a cracking baby, still only 9 months old, he has the most beautiful head, with a hint of mischief in his lovely dark eye, balanced throughout, nice length of neck and lay back of shoulder, good angulation throughout, his footfall once settled was free-moving with plenty of drive, presented in excellent condition, one to watch for the future, I absolutely loved him. BOB.

1. McNeil's BARRABRAE MISTY THYME. Mature dog, with a strong masculine head, with a kind dark eye, low set ears, good deep of chest with well sprung ribs, strong quarters throughout, with a good tail set, good bone, felt he didn't move his best today, would have preferred more drive from behind, but still a lot to like.

1. Rance's MAYFRED MR MAGNIFICO. This boy has a good outline, would just prefer a little more length of leg to complete the length to height balance, but still can not be denied attention, has a very pleasing head, correct amount of stop with a lovely raised brow, kind eye with a little hint of Irish mischief, good length of neck into well placed shoulders, good angulation front and rear, with a good firm topline, once settled moved with drive, disappointed he was unsettled again in the challenge. 2. Sturrock's FORFARIAN CAUGHT YOU LOOKIN. 3. Paterson's HEATHCLARE MUIRS MAGIC.

1. Ross's KETTLEHILLS STAR TROUPER. This boy has a pleasing head and expression, correct almond shaped eye, found him a little upright in shoulder, but has an adequate front, good spring of rib and depth of chest, strong loin, good angulation and muscle condition to hindquarters, good bend of stifle, felt his footfall was not at it's best today, he lacked drive and accuracy, his coat was presented in excellent condition. 2. Wilson's DANAWAY TONYA.
