Bitches
Special Junior Veteran Bitch 4(1)
1. Hipkiss' Ch. Dalkiss Isia of lona. Now 9 years old but every inch a
showgirl still. Lovely liver spotting both in colour and distribution. Good
shoulders and stifles, producing sound movement. BOSV
2. Rose's Washakie Idaho By Candidals. Lovely rich black spotting of deep,
rich pigment. More heavily marked than the winner but spots still well
distributed. Attractive head but has a tendency to fly her ears. Good stifles
but not as sound in movement as 1.
3. Page's Ch. Winter Magic
Special Veteran Bitch 3(0)
1. Scott-Alien and Davis's Olbero Olympic Rose. Ten year old black spotted
bitch, whose spotting is now starting to look a Sittle shadowy. Very attractive
head and expression though I would have preferred a little more white on the
ears. Sound movement and well off for bone.
2. Russell's Bryedal Mayerlyng at Dalynrics. Liver spotting of very good
colour but markings not as well distributed as those of the winner. Lovely
spotty ears, which framed a feminine but not "bitchy" head. Not as good as 1
in movement.
3. Ford's Kayjule Princess Jasmine
Minor Puppy Bitch 7(2)
1. Davis's Elaridge Yolande. Barely six months old B/W and still very much
a baby. That said, she is clearly one to look out for in future, especially as she
has such a strong relationship with her handler. Gorgeous spotting, except on
her face, which is a little white for my taste. Good shoulders and stifles,
producing very sound movement in one so young.
2. Clarke's Klarkeson Royal Lace. At nearly 8 months old, she is a real
showgirl, which looks as though she was born in a showring. Excellent deep
black spotting on a clear white background. Very appealing head and
expression. More compact than the winner and lacked her overall quality of
movement.
3. Ely's Wintermine Flamenco
Puppy Bitch 5(1)
1. Quayle's Cubalibre Spot On. What an excellent name for this puppy for
she matches it to a tee! Very balanced b/w compact bitch with all the overall
construction that I was looking for. Very good head and expression, dark eyes,
well curved stifles and very sound movement, both in front and behind.
Deservedly ended up BPIS.
2. Sheldon's Boutonneux Galathea At Gemmont. Another puppy with
rich, black spotting to match that of the winner. Longer cast than land not
quite the drive behind. Would prefer a darker eye.
3. Newton and Newton O'Brien's Cubalibre Polkadot
Junior Bitch 7(1)
1. Page's Winflash The Final Magic. Every inch a showgirl and totally at
one with her handler. Excellent overall construction with particularly good lay
of shoulder. By far the best mover in the class. Her spotting is slightly smaller
than the ideal but still well distributed. In the challenge, she lacked the
maturity of the ultimate winners.
2. Goff-Leggett's Mullabuoy Miss Chief Of Washakie. More compact than
the winner though with larger b/w spotting of a richer hue. Good bone and
tight feet. Lost out to the winner in shoulder placement and overall
movement.
3. Gibbs' Phandante Dixie Lily
Yearling Bitch 7(1)
1. Dunnachie's Ch. Dvojica Voulez Vous. Another pairing that really shows
the ringside how well suited they are to each other. Very balanced overall,
she moved with drive. Well off for bone. Very attractive head and expression,
good distribution of b/w spotting. I felt she lacked the same zest for showing
in the challenge that she had demonstrated in this class.
2. Gibbs' Phandante Dixie Lily. B/w spotting of excellent colour and
distribution. Slightly larger cast than the winner. In the previous class she
looked slightly bored but she certainly brightened up here and her movement
improved significantly.
3. Dodds and Pearson's Kelevra Mercury Rising
Maiden Bitch 6(3)
1. B.G. At Gemmont
2. K. Royal Lace
3. C. Polkadot
Novice Bitch 9(5)
1. B.G. At Gemmont
2. K. Royal Lace
3. Iddon's Tamilanda Pink Fizz
Graduate Bitch 6(2)
1. Kembrey's Dalmark the Sandwitch. Smaller type than the others in this
class but very well balanced overall. Lovely liver spotting on a clear white coat.
Good shoulders and stifles. Sound movement.
2. Adderley's Phandante Bohemian Rhapsody. B/w, taller than the
winner but still balanced. Excellent head and expression. Well off for bone.
Spotting not as well distributed as that of the winner and she did not move
with as much drive behind.
3. William's Phandante One Vision
Post-Graduate Bitch 15(1)
1. Whincup's Tamilanda Hot Pink. A really sparkling l/w with very good
spotting in colour and distribution. Good, overall balance with particularly
notable lay of shoulder and curve of stifle. Inevitably, therefore, she moved
with reach and drive. Best liver bitch.
2. Dinsdale's Koroyza Candy Floss At Dalesbred. Slightly more compact
than 1. Gorgeous head and expression. Good topline. Rich black spotting on a
clear white background. Could not quite match the winner in movement.
3. Dore's Dalidor Ace of Diamonds
Limit Bitch 24(4)
This was certainly my best class of the day, with bitches which I have liked
before going cardless.
1. Smith's Tamilanda Pretty in Pink. Litter sister to my PG winner but one
which was a stranger to me. Liked her as she entered the ring and, today, she
had everything I wanted in a mature bitch. Totally balanced, outstanding b/w
spotting in colour and distribution. Excellent construction, particularly in her
lay of shoulder. Level topline. Moved with real purpose both ways. CCand
BOS.
2. Neath-Duggan's Buffrey Gift Wrapped.I have admired this bitch since
she was a puppy and she did not disappoint me today. Lovely overall balance,
very good construction, sound movement and never stopped showing. Lost
out to the winner in spotting but I seriously considered her for the ResCC.
3. Wright's Angelica Aphrodite for Millbelle.
Open Bitch 17(4)
1. Christie's Ch. Sophtspot Snap Crackle N Pop. Positively "fizzes" in the
showring. She has matured into an excellent example of our breed. Balanced
throughout, this b/w was the best mover in this class, due to her very good
construction. Attractive spotting both in colour and distribution. Pushed the
CC winner all the way but had to settle for the Res.CC.
2. Alexander's Ch. Offordale White Lady. A lovely feminine bitch but one
with substance and sound construction throughout. Excellent head and
expression, very good b/w spotting, sound movement. Never stopped showing
but without quite the vivacity of the above.
3. Cuthbertson's Ch. Kalsidoni Garnet
Special Beginner's Bitch 5(1)
1. C. Polkadot. Third in Puppy and maiden. Very promising l/w litter sister
to the BPIS but of a different type, being taller and longer cast than her.
Attractively marked overall. Moved well and was very competently shown by
her young handler.
2. Whiting's Cibrith China Aster. Another balanced 1/w though not as well
spotted as the winner. Very attractive head and expression. Moved soundly
and showed with verve.
3. Vockings and Smethirst's Fortunes Enchantress
Brace 3(1)
1. My co-judge and I agreed that Dodds and Pearson's well-matched pair of
black spotted animals should be the winners. They were particularly well-
matched on the move.
2. Tingey's brace of well-matched livers.
