I would like to thank the Crufts Committee for entrusting me with this most prestigious of judging engagements. I would also like to thank the exhibitors for their good humour and sportsmanship.
I was extremely pleased with the overall quality of the exhibits and it was a pleasure to go over them. All were of good sound temperament. I note that mouths in general were good and movement has most definitely improved in recent years. Some very hard decisions had to be made, but ultimately I had no hesitation in awarding the CCs to my Best Dog and Best Bitch, both of whom had tremendous virtues.
