CROSSTICKLE’S LITTLE STINKER - 8mth tricolour lad who was a decent size. Head slightly narrow currently, much will depend on how he matures. He had dark, round eyes which could have been slightly bigger. A correct bite with strong teeth.Would have liked a little more tan on his face. Neat in body shape. Falls away slightly over the croup but he had a well carried tail. He moved parallel both ways. Nonetheless, he has promise.

1. CAVIOLIA’S THUNDERSTRUCK & BLOWN AWAY - 11mth black & tan with the most attractive head. Skull almost flat between his well set ears. Large, dark, round, expressive eyes and a well filled muzzle of the correct length. He could have slightly more neck for my ideal. He had good spring of rib

and was short coupled. Moderate bone. He had a quality coat, straight, jet black and rich tan points in all the right places. Well balanced in profile and carried a level topline. Once he settled he made a

lovely picture going round and moved straight coming and going. A very promising puppy that I liked a lot. BEST PUPPY IN SHOW & RES. WINNERS DOG

2. SYRENIA’S WINSMAN SANTINO - 10mth blenheim. Heavier in type and rather strong in head for me. Would have liked a larger, darker eye. He had a correct bite with large, strong, teeth. His shoulder and upper arm angles were correct and he had good bone. He moved a little wide going away and was erratic coming towards.

1. MIDSUMMER’S WALTER - 14mth tricolour lad full of quality. Attractive head, plenty fill under his round, dark eyes and lots of rich tan. Strong teeth. Liked his size, bone and balance. He had enough neck and correct angled upper arm. Very neat in body with a well sprung rib and short coupling. He

had neat, short rear pasterns and a level topline on the move. He still needs to gain more confidence in the showring but if he does, could trouble the best. Happy to award him WINNERS DOG

1. RULER’S CHARLIE BROWN AT DELLEROSE Very glamorous blenheim. He had a masculine head with large, round, dark, eyes and pigmented rims. I would’ve preferred that they were set lower in the head. Correct scissor bite and strong teeth. Enough neck and well sprung rib, longer in loin. Short rear pasterns and moved well behind. Profuse coat, rich in colour.

1. GCHB JEWELCROFT’S GOING CONCERN 12 1/2yr old ruby boy. A size bigger but so much to like. Beautiful head and expression from large, dark, round eyes and pigmented eye rims. Full dentition which was a correct scissor bite and strong teeth. Very good in front angulation with tight elbows. He was well ribbed and short in coupling. He had a well presented rich, ruby coat Moved parallel coming and going. A lovely veteran in sparkling condition. Thank you for bringing him, he’s a credit to you.

1. SIGMACHI AND LONDONCOR JANE AT FIELDS EDGE - 6mth blenheim. Sweet head, skull almost flat between well set ears, dark, round eyes with plenty cushioning under them. Black pigment. Richly marked with a quality straight coat. Good in neck with well placed shoulder. Slightly longer cast

and currently narrow all through, consequently moved close in front and behind. Hopefully time will see a change in this. Would’ve liked more bone.

1. HALFMOON BREAK THE BOUNDARIES - 15mth Ruby, stylish looking girl with pretty,

unexaggerated head, skull almost flat beween the ears. Dark eyes, correct scissor bite. Good neck achieved by correctly angled shoulder, would just like a little more upper arm. She had a well sprung rib, covered by a richly coloured ruby coat. Moved with great head carriage, a level topline and correctly carried tail. She was correctly balanced and once she’s in full coat should make a lovely

overall picture. Happy to award her WINNERS BITCH

2. WHIMSY SIGMA CHI FRANCESCA AT LONDONCOR - 14mth Blenheim with a pretty head, dark, round eyes and dark nose pigment. Correct scissor bite. She had a well marked, plentiful coat. Slightly longer cast. Falls away at the croup. I liked her size and her free movement. Very happy temperament.

3. MIDSUMMER’S JOURNEY OF LOVE - 13mth Blenheim. Immature in head and would like more cushioning in muzzle. Dark, round eyes. She had a rich, well marked coat. Although rather “flat” on the move she had a level topline and moved ok coming and going. Would like more bone.

1. MIDSUMMER’S MARGARET - Blenheim who, after going over her was not surprised that the more I watched her, the more I liked her. A very neat, short coupled, well balanced girl with moderate bone, covered in a richly covered coat. Ideal in size. Head is immature and hope it fills out under the eyes in time but she had dark eyes and nose with correct scissor bite. She moved with ease and

precision both fore and aft, had a level topline and well carried tail. “A very useful bitch”.

2. RULERS BROWN BETTY - Blenheim, larger in size and not quite as “together” in body. Large eyes. Showed a little tongue and I was unable to assess her bite properly because her mouth wouldn’t close fully. I suspect this has to do with rear teeth. Longer in body. Very well presented and in good condition. Not as good behind as 1.

1. CEMPA HOLD ON SHE’S COMING - Ruby with a lot to like. Strong headed for me but she had a well cushioned muzzle, large, round eyes with a very soft expression. Good neck and correctly angulated shoulder. Good spring of rib and a richly coloured plentiful coat in excellent condition. Slightly longer cast. Looked great in profile moving round. A nice bitch.

2. CARVER’S DIRTY GERTIE - Ruby. Another nice bitch who had a more feminine head than 1 with large dark eyes, soft expression and well cushioned muzzle. Another who had well angulated shoulders, good spring of rib and a plentiful coat, beautifully presented and in good condition although not as rich in colour and not quite as good behind as 1. However, it was a close decision.

3. MIDSUMMER’S VICTORIA - Tricolour. Very feminine girl with large, dark, round eyes and plenty of rich tan in all the right places. Needs more filling under the eyes. Correct bite. Her markings were very “clean cut” and she had the correct coat type - straight and silky and the black was jet black. Liked her

size but could do with a little more bone.

1. HALFMOON DELTA DART - Blenheim, up to size but attractive in type. Pretty head with dark, round eyes complete with dark rims. Dark nose pigment. Correct scissor bite. Could have slightly more neck. Well sprung rib and in excellent coat and condition. Moved straight in front coming towards. A

little close behind. In profile, she had good head carriage and a level topline. Slightly rounded off at the croup and tail carried higher than ideal. Overall, still a quality girl.

2. SIGMA CHI’S NANCY WHISKEY AT DAWNAQUINN - Smaller made blenheim. Head almost flat between ears. Dark eyes and good nose pigment. Needs to body up, short in coupling. Liked her size.

3. CACAMBRIDGE OVER THE RAINBOW - Tricolour - Attractive head shape with rich tan markings. Would like a darker eye. Correctly laid shoulders and upper arm. Longer cast. Heavier marked coat which was profuse and presented in good condition. Parallel movement coming and going.

4. SYRENIA’S FEMME FATALE - A heavier set girl all through. She had a correct scissor bite but would like a darker eye. Slightly over ribbed. Well marked coat and she had good bone. Movement was parallel and she was very together going round.

1. HALFMOON NON STOP CHATTER - 12yr old blenheim. Larger in size. Moderate in head with large, dark, round eyes and still with good pigment. Very sprightly and free moving. A credit to her owners.

2. GCH MIDSUMMER’S LIFE IS A HIGHWAY - 9yr old blenheim, liked her size. Her head needs more filling under the eyes. She had a richly coloured coat and had moderate bone. Slightly falls away at the croup. A decent bitch tho.
