PD(4,la)

1 Page's Winflash Harvey Wallbanger, classy male, lightly spotted, balanced head which is masculine yet still has quality & expression, clean neck, well ribbed, quality bone but feet need to tighten. Holds his outline well, moves happily & wrth purpose. BP;
2 Lindsay-Anelli's Appennine Captain Morgan, shorter in upper arm than 1 & not so together as yet in body.Well spotted, good head type but a little light in eye. Needs to collect his front;
3 McLeod's Shulune Designed In Ice.

JD (6)

1 Lewis' Man About Town at Hunterswood, very well balanced youngster with great overall appeal & so much quality, excellent head & expres- sion, strong but elegant neck. firm topline, well ribbed, moves sound & true, excellent bone & feet Close up for the CC but the final winners had a little more forehand reach. Could still carry his title with full maturity;
2 Dunnachie's Sophtspot Sugar Daddy at Dvojica, all male, on his toes, in lovely bloom. Makes a very pleasing picture in overall outline but needs to tighten in front & as yet does not have the development of second thigh of 1;
3 Casey's Camargue Calvin Klein.

YD (4)

1 Smith's Dalleaf Mulberry, liver, needing to spring in rib & develop in second thigh. Typy, well balanced head. good bone, clean lined, moved true;
2 Beaumont & Croft's Koroyza Grippi Il Miracolo, masculine head but lightish eye, has great ring presence but needs to fill out in front & tighten when coming on. Pleasing angles, happy showman;
3 Hosie's Heroic Hector.

DD (1)

1 Vockings & Smethurst's Pollypeck Perseverance, odd eyed dog of medium size, well conditioned & handled. muscular & hard but lacks reach & drive in profile as his movement is rather restricted.

PGD (3,1)

1 Stocks' DalmarkThe Shaded Moon at Nospar. balanced liver, good overall type. appeals in outline, good rib but a little short in upper arm. Tail could be a little better set & he needs to tighten in front;
2 Sheldon's Gemmont Rocco Bay, free, happy & a great mover in all directions, just lighter in bone & body than 1.

LD (8,2)

1 Coates' Cuba Libre Top Spot, free mover with good reach & drive, spotting could be more distinctive, clean head, balanced outline, a little light in eye. Has just enough bone & a look of class;
2 Tingey's Kymvale Oberon at Dallyador, lovely headed liver, somewhat straighter at both ends than 1 & a little more up in the air but well spotted & makes an attractive overall picture;
3 McVicar's Dundarave Ambassador.

OD (7,2)

1 Fabian's Ch Tumbril Texas Tribute, medium size dog who is a veritable powerhouse on the go-around. Balanced head, clean neck, firm back- line, well ribbed, very well let down behind. Nicely spotted, makes a very striking overall picture & when he moves he does so with power & deter- mination. Great in profile & going away, if a little generous coming on. Still won the CC deservedly on his many virtues. Apparently he won the RCC under me last time so it was good to discover I still liked him;
2 Evans' Tyrodal Kracker Jack, love this liver's head & expression, a size larger than 1. Great angles all through & he is a very obliging showman, just tends to break in topline a little which cost him the CC, still felt he deserved the RCC & should be a worthy champion;
3 Cleland's Deovolante Don Alfonso.

PB (8)

1 Fort's Shulune Fantazy On Ice, nicely balanced &,so coordinated on the go-around but needs to collect her front. Typical but feminine head, slightly light in eye, has a look of class & a clean outline;
2 Fabian's Tumbril Tiddly Twoshoes, beautifully conditioned baby whose conformation is superb. She is so typical, feminine, well spotted & radiates quality. Sound on the move, just rather overawed & reluctant to use her tail which cost her the class. One for the future;
3 Munro's Luiema Sea Lavender.

JB (12,2)

1 Lewis' Hunterswood Razzmatazz, really beautiful bitch, full of quality & so well balanced. Excellent head type, if a shade light in eye, elegant neck, firm backline, well let down behind with ample bone & substance. In lovely bloom, moved freely & easily & as the day progressed she grew on me more & more. On overall picture she pleased me more than anything so won her first CC& BOB;
2 Johnston's Pollypeck Private Dancer for Clonheath, odd eyed liver but I forgave this fault in favour of her other qualities. Compact, shapely, well ribbed but not the second thigh of 1. Very composed on the move & full of quality;
3 Cuthbertson's Kalsidoni Garnet

YB (3)

1 Smallwood's Mapplewell Dancing Queen, compact liver, not the tidiest up & down but well balanced & makes a high quality overall picture;
2 Locke- McFadzean's Tyrodal Ultra Violet by Sassafras, free showing & well schooled, longer coupled than 1 & not her finish of foreface, outgoing nature & sets up to catch the eye, very well angulated behind & goes well;
3 Christie's Sophtspot Super Duper.

DB (7,2)

1 Lewis' Hunterswood Lyric, compact & bal- anced, not over angulated, excellent size, in lovely condition. Coordinates so well on the move. A little light in eye but excellent head type;
2 Dodds & Pearson's Camargue Gucci Envy, high quality bitch, could have just a fraction more'substance but she has a look of great class & is a very impres- sive mover. Rather gay tail tends to spoil her outline moving;
3 Harrison-Stratford's Dalkereve Dark N Divine.

PGB (12,3)

I Dodds & Pearson's Pollypeck Premier Passion at Daffydal, animated & so well balanced, feminine but not wispy, great angles, well spotted & clean lined. Pleasing eye & expression, sound & steady mover but could have a little more open side gait;
2 Petersen's Phadante Devil In Disguise at Daedalus, longer coupled than 1 & a bit blousy in front, substantial & yet has quality. Spotting could be more even;
3 Lindsay- Anelli's Appennine Moonlight Magjk.

LB (13,4)

1 Kay's Kaytian Electra, won the RCC under me as a baby & the resulting applause caused her great anxiety & she is still not totally relaxed & keen to give of her best which is such a shame as this liver bitch oozes quality & is so beautifully put together. She still fills my eye totally & I would love to have taken her further, but her refusal to use her ears & project herself really didn't warrant it. I do hope she regains total confidence as she should be a worthy champion;
2 Clarice's Mapplewell Double Take by Klarkeson, very scopey bitch, so stylish but a little longer coupled than 1 & so not her impec- cable balance but a very good bitch nonetheless;
3 Neath-Duggan's Buffrey Sprig 0 Mint.

OB (6)

1 Neath-Duggan's Ch Buffrey Maybee, beautifully conditioned, in hard muscular nick & so well bal- anced. Could be more distinctly spotted but coor- dinates so beautifully on the move & her outline flows with no humps & bumps. RCC;
2 Lamb's Leaveslake Lily at Dalpetro, more rangey type of liver, longer in foreface & longer cast generally, but she covers the ground & moves so freely;
3 Sheldon's Gemmont Mystical Magic.
