JD (1) 1 Irvine & Gillies’ Tapui Lets Blaze. A shapely 7 month old of pleasing conformation and shape and lots of promise. Pleasing bone and body with plenty of scope for development and maturity. Very attractive head in shape and expression having dark well shaped eyes and well shaped high set ears. Pleasing body length and proportions. Moved with a free easy action in side gait but was a little loose in pastern and hocks. Best Puppy in Breed and Reserve Best Dog.

OD (1) 1 Cobb & Kent’s Ch Koromandel Best Served Cold At Knytshall. A smart looking 4 year old who has quality both in conformation and is breed typical. A shapely male with a clean cut appearance and ‘mature body’ look. Attractive masculine, breed typical head with an alert expression. True in front, sturdy in body and he is firm in topline, moderate angulation front and rear. In profile he is well-balanced and of pleasing proportions. Could be more settled on the move. My Best Dog.

PGB (1) 1 Rumsey’s Kata Syndattir AV Fjeldvidda At Wheatshade (Imp NLD). A shapely 2 year old, very feminine bitch of pleasing make and shape. Looks to be up on the leg at the moment and longish in back but has plenty of scope for future development and maturity. Attractive head in shape and expression having dark well shaped eyes and correctly shaped high set ears. Pleasing body length but would like more depth which I am sure will come with maturity. Moved with a free easy action in side gait but was a little loose in pastern.

OB (2) 1 Butterworth’s Koromandel Gild The Lily JW. A very attractive 4 year old who has the well proportioned, balanced appearance of quality. She is totally together being of the size and proportions which I liked. She has the best of heads which I preferred to second. True in front, well ribbed, firm body, topline and moderate firm, stable hindquarters. Free purposeful movement with true forward action. Best Bitch and Best of Breed. 2 Irvine’s Kimuras Vera With Tapui (Imp Nor). A mature 6 year old who is shapely and of good size and proportions in side profile. Feminine in head, mature and full in body with a firm straight topline and sturdy broad loins. Unsettled on the move especially in rear hocks. Reserve Best Bitch.

VB (1) 1 Rumsey’s Ch Arnscroft Di Nah May. A 9 year old who has a mature look, smart outline and is of pleasing make and shape and having an attractive feminine head. Compact in appearance being in proportion and balance. Free moving with good side gait but needing to settle in front action.
