Chapman-King, Buist & Eriksson's Inzievar Gold Touch

Chapman-King, Buist & Eriksson's Inzievar Gold Touch

1st: Mannia's Finloren The Lion In Winter at Kirskill

Nicely presented mustard dog.  Good to see him again, well handled and looking really well.  Moved well behind, not so good in front.  Touch long in the foreface.  Good outline.

2nd: Hows's Kuddlemee Gershwin

More compact dog, beautifully headed with correct head proportions, good crisp coat.  Not as free moving as 1.

3rd: Milliner's Zanneus Zachary of Millerim

Not as good a coat as the first two and a bit sluggish, but certainly not disgraced.

1st: Hunter's Etsill Scapa Flow

Nicely grown youngster, super head with correct stop.  Was flattening a bit in topline and a bit reluctant to go but a nice type and promising.  Perked up a bit when he challenged the puppy bitch for BP.

1st: Jacka-Slater's Cassencarrie Robbie Burns

Nice mustard dog, lovely outline both standing and moving, well presented.  A touch long in foreface, front not his fortune but shows promise.

2nd: Gaffney's Norfolkhaven Tigers Eye

Nice type of youngster with a glorious head.  OK in front, a touch flat in topline.

1st: Riach's Puddockswell Gilded Imp

Liked the head, outline and coat on this one.  Was a touch sluggish but movement up and back was good.  Won the class as he was typy.

2nd: Cox-Purcell's Puddockswell Handsome Hector

Really stylish young man, a touch longer but presents a good outline.  Profile movement really fluid but not as good up and back as 1.

3rd: Bullock & Keevil's Yazga Love The One You're With

Young dog in good condition, lovely crisp coat.  Just a touch long in foreface and was flattening a little in profile.

1st: Hulme's Vistca Vian of Hendell

Beautiful type of male, stunning head with absolute melting expression and liquid eye.  Coat still coming through but crisp enough.  Is perhaps a touch exaggerated over the loin but that really is nit picking.  Nice, sound moving dog, he is quality all through and is of clear ch. grading.  We shall hear more from him.

2nd: Denham's Scottsbairn Duke Of Ross

Really liked this dog - masculine, and immediately takes your eye upon examination.  Nice outline, really good movement, presentation was excellent, condition of his coat was first class.  Just a touch long in foreface and a bit proud of his tail but is still a top quality dog capable of doing some top winning.

3rd: Corless 's Dengold Enterprise

Not disgraced to stand third behind the two above.  Nicely presented and handled.  Is a bigger sort but typy.

1st: Francis, Wolfskill & Greenway's Am/Aust Ch. Jollygaze Time Lord

Absolutely stunning mustard dog who had my attention as soon as he entered the ring as he has sheer ring presence, presents a perfect outline with absolutely beautiful neck and shoulders which give him the stamp of quality.  On the table stood up perfectly to examination as he is a lovely headed boy, the topline is absolutely spot on, beautifully fronted & his rear angulation and tailset are perfect.  Moves around the ring holding his correct outline at all times with style and purpose, and his profile movement is absolutely eyecatching.  He moves really true in front with some decent reach.  He is clearly a big ring dog, and I was delighted to see him take G2 where he had many admirers.  Is certainly one of the best Dandies I have ever judged.  CC & BOB.

2nd: Deacon's Ch./Am Ch. Pennywise Burning Ambition for Cassencarrie

To put a dog of this quality second shows how strong this class was.  Super outline, lovely headed boy, excellent show temperament, in lovely condition with correct crisp coat which was a lovely mustard colour.  Has an absolutely first class rear which is so difficult to get on a Dandie.  RCC.

3rd: Macbeth & Johnston's Am/Can Ch. Gateway Spark of Glahms

Completed a stunning trio.  In fact any of the first four in this class would have won a CC in most other competitions.  Loved his head, really good front, good rear, good tailset, nice coat, beautiful trim.  Held his outline well on the move.  Just tended to flatten in stance, but that really is nit picking when writing about a dog of this quality.

1st: Bromley's Ch. Mishahda Cinnamon Crumble

Nice to see this one, an old favourite of mine who has previously had a RCC from me.  Still looks well, well presented, pretty head, good outline and proportions.  Moved OK.

2nd: Bailey's Stinchcombe Love In The Mist

Not in her best bib and tucker, but owner told me she had recently had a false pregnancy, so unfair to criticise

1st: Chapman-King, Buist & Eriksson's Inzievar Gold Touch

Absolutely lovely type of bitch, really pretty head, lovely neck and shoulders.  Perfect outline which she held in stance an on the move.  Liked her attitude.  A little short of coat, but she had absolutely nothing to hide and is already knocking on the door for CCs.  Certainly one to watch.  RCC & BP.

2nd: Harrington's Venord Windcharm

Good temperament.  With a little more judicious trimming could be made to look even better.  Nice to go over, moved OK, good attitude.

3rd: Hunter's Etsill Inganess Bay

Another with good attitude,  Head a touch plainer than the two above her.  Good proportions, moved OK.

1st: Morris's Pennywave Amaryllis

Really pretty young girl, has had an exciting puppy career and I suspect will go on to do very well.  Was just a bit in between at the moment.  She stood up well to examination and moved well.  Good rear.  With a little more maturity will certainly be one to watch.

2nd: Bird's Etsill Shapinsay Sound with Birbrinda

Looks the part, nice outline, pretty head.  Was a bit sluggish against 1.

1st: Fry's Dentgate Confetti

Won this class with a bit to spare.  Absolutely lovely type, just kept taking my eye whenever I looked at her.  Moved a touch sluggishly but apart from that really liked her.

2nd: Osbourne's Pitfirrane Silver Lady of Braego

Good outline, good length of body.  Nowhere neat as good up and back as 1.

3rd: Hunter's Puddockswell Hootin Annie at Etsill

Nice up and back, nice coat.  A bit flat in topline.

1st: France's Torbrae Daisy Dreamin

Type and outline lovely.  Couldn't help but notice her on first examination.  Really good head, excellent proportions.  Is a bit head strong and possibly carrying a couple of pounds too much weight which pegged her in the challenge, but a quality bitch who is quite capable of gaining her title.

2nd: Danks's Dawsholm Cantily Kate

Absolutely sound with lovely attitude and kept taking my eye every time I went back to her.  More workmanlike than 1 but really useful sort.  Clearly capable of doing some winning.

3rd: Tinsley's Cloverwood Razzberry Ice

When I first looked at the class I thought this one would be my winner.  Absolutely bang on for type with the most beautiful melting expression, lovely outline and proportions.  Unfortunately was not cooperating which pegged her.  Another quite capable of gaining her title.

1st: De Bakker's Dutch Ch. Waltzing Mathilda Of Coquet Water

Really pretty and very much the finished article.  Top quality bitch who came in to the ring meaning business.  Stunning head, lovely neck, shoulders and front with beautifully presented and correct pepper coat.  Is a touch exaggerated over the loin but again that is nit picking.  Lovely fluid profile movement.  In fabulous condition and handled to get the very best out of her.  She and the BOB made a quality pair when it came to the challenge.  CC.

2nd: Hastrup Holm's Dk/Lu Ch. Fairmac Janina De Fleur

Really liked the outline and proportions of this young lady, both standing and moving.  Not quite as glamorous as I pushed her hard.  When she came back to challenge for the RCC, decided to play the owner up.  She is real quality and certainly capable of adding titles to the one she already has.

3rd: Cameron's Ch. Inzievar Silver Bonnet

A bitch to whom I have previously awarded a CC.  Looked a touch masculine against the others.  Absolutely sound as a bell up back and round.  Does have this tendency to be a bit uncooperative and unfortunately decided that it was one of those days.

1st: Jarvis's Mosterlada Shooting Star

Placed fifth in the hotly contested open class.  Nice mustard bitch in good coat.  Was just a bit sluggish but is quality.
