(MR S ROFF)
I would like to thank the committee for the invitation to judge and the exhibitors for their entry, I was very pleased to see very few were absent from the classes and the entry was of a high quality. I thoroughly enjoyed my day and was very well looked after by the host club. There were some tough decisions which were accepted with good grace and sportsmanship. It was lovely to see some new stars coming into the show ring this year. Thank you for the opportunity to go over them!

1st BULLYSOUL TO HARD TO HANDLE (MR & MRS S & K KETTLEBOROUGH)
Well marked brindle and white 7 year old male, in great condition on the day, excellent expression with well-set ears and small eye. Mouth correct. Excellent depth of underjaw. Long head with a smooth profile and still retaining power. Super body lines, with good bone down to lovely feet. Well made all through. Short in back, tail set correctly, nicely rounded chest. Moved out well both days and knew his job from his days in the ring as a youngster. Well-handled and certainly belied his years. A pleasure to see him again, thank you.
2nd MARSHELSEA TROUBLE COMING AT ROMAGNA (MRS & MRS M & Y MORGANS)
9 year old white dog with black ears. Another well-known dog who frequently graced the rings in his youth. Different type to first, bigger framed, upstanding dog. Head is a tad browy now and showing the years, eye and ear set still giving a good expression. Mouth still good. Short in back and enough bone for type, good tight feet. Well rounded and developed fore-chest. Still nicely muscled in rear, good tail set. Moved a bit more sedately than the winner but I recall him being one of the good movers in his day.
Nicely handled and it was good to see him out again.
3rd MEGAVILLE MAGIC STAR (MR & MRS A & A TWYMAN)
9 year old black brindle and white bitch. Again a differing type to the males in the class, much more cobby and lower set, with good amount of bone. Lovely strong head, with piercing eye and ears set on top, again giving a good expression. Mouth difficult to assess as she was being a reluctant show girl. Good shoulder and straight front, a bit more length of leg would balance her up. Good rear angulation, well set tail. Moved reluctantly down the mat and her patient handler did an excellent job to make the best of her elderly charge!

1st BROOKBULLY BRIGADIER AT BOBUDDY (MR S ROFF)
9 month old white with brindle eye patch. Stonking substantial super typy puppy, bags of bone to spare, well made throughout and only loose due to being such a young age. Power packed head, smooth in profile with a storming roman finish, deep underjaw and filled right up. Ears bang on top, wickedly tiny eye giving a punishing expression. Mouth fault, but this did not detract. Good neck into a well developed chest and straight front down to beautiful feet. Short backed, well placed shoulder. Tail correctly set on. Held his top line on the move. Gave his handler a hard time and moved better as the day went on and he got the hang of what was required. I expect him to power down the mat when he has more experience in the coming months. Only a nit-pick but would like a fully pigmented nose, though he has time on his side for this to further develop. Loved him the moment he entered the ring. BP BD

1st KARMARA'S CRIMINAL DAMAGE (MRS & MR R & T KARTA-WILLIAMS & WILLIAMS)
very rangy all white dog, just a year old. I would expect him to take some time to mature on and fill in his very large frame. Excellent eye, ears set on and used well but a little large on him at the moment. Good length of head, smooth profile and a good mouth. Bone is enough for size and type, leads down through a straight front to tight feet. Super length of neck, body is a tad narrow all through leading to close movement but again I expect all to improve with time and maturity. Rear is well angulated. Short enough in back and held his topline. Time is on his side and will be a different dog in a year’s time. Expertly shown, beautifully trained and in pristine condition – a pleasure to go over.

1st UKUSA PORTHOS (MR & MISS D J & S A VON MEMERTY & ARMSTRONG)
18 months old white dog with brindle ear. Large substantial male, with good bone down to excellent feet. Well set on and used ears, good eye, head of pleasing length, with gentle, unbroken profile would prefer a tad more fill and power. Deep under jaw, mouth correct. Good, well matured body lines, good depth of brisket. Straight front, and excellent fore chest. Well angulated, powerful rear. Slightly long cast in body, but held top line on the move. Moved out nicely both ways, handler and dog did an excellent job of their very first show! Very well presented and trained, lost out in the challenge due to needing a little extra sparkle and knowledge to keep showing and pushing forward. All this will come with experience and practice at shows, I do hope the handler continues as she has a very good dog.

Mouth fault. Would prefer a tad more fill under the eye. Good reach of neck into excellent fore chest. Good bone for type and beautiful tight feet. Straight front, starting to spring in rib. A well-made dog all through. Excellent shoulder which shows in his front movement, very free and easy, a tad close behind. Short in back and good rear angulation.

Ultra-short in back however shoulder would benefit from a better lay back. Rear is powerful, tail is correctly set on. Would like a shade more on the rear angulation.

1st CH UKUSA VEGAS AT DITON (MR & MRS A J & D B MCCANN)
Substantial, fully mature feminine white girl with red ear. Beautiful long head with gentle unbroken profile. Mouth now just off. Excellent ear and eye giving typical expression, head is good for fill and power without any exaggeration. Excellent bone and beautiful front. Round tight feet. Short in back and only losing some shape and bodylines due to her very recent litter. Moved out well both ways and gave her handler an easy time as the consummate show girl she is.
2nd KARMARA'S RUMOUR HAS IT (MRS & MR R & T KARTA-WILLIAMS & WILLIAMS)
taller and rangier white bitch, punishing expression and ears are well set on regardless of her haematomas. Stunning long head with sweeping profile and a correct mouth. Enough power and fill for type. Her bone matches her type, more of an elegant upstanding bitch than 1st. Lovely length of neck into excellent straight front down to beautiful feet. Would benefit from a shade more length of upper arm and rear angulation, both would improve her top line. Short enough in back and a correctly set tail. Looking well for having been in the whelping box. A bit reluctant on the move but a real picture standing. Well presented and handled.

1st NOTORIOUS SHOCKADELICA (IMP USA) (MR & MR & MRS P & P & H JASPER & GOODING)
10 months old, balanced and typy solid tri bitch – very mature for age with wonderful power and substance running throughout. A stunning strong head, with both profile, depth and width from top to tip. Completely filled up with the best of eye and ear to give a fabulous expression. Perfect mouth. Elegant neck into well-developed forechest. Lovely amount of bone. Feet could be a shade tighter. Powerful forechest, short in back and good depth of rib. Good tail set, well-muscled up rear but would benefit from a tad more rear angulation. Very powerful girl on the move, rear action was excellent. A smart bitch all round and pushed for the top awards.
2nd UKUSA DALLIANCE FOR LARONBELLE (MR & MRS A & A TWYMAN)
8 months old black brindle and white bitch, different type to 1st. Strong long head, with good profile, not the muzzle strength of class winner. Good mouth. Eye is small and ears are well used, would prefer position a little more on top. Head has fill but I feel there is more to come. Elegant neck into a good forechest and shoulder. Enough bone but not as substantial at this stage as 1st. Appearing little long cast though maturity will make a difference when the depth in brisket develops. Moved out well both ways, handled and presented beautifully. A lovely typy bitch who given time and maturity could change class position.

must mention this girl who sadly was spooked by the venue and the noises. A very typy white with tricolour eye patch girl, beautiful strong powerful head and plenty of virtues, well off for bone, short in back, I am sure she would do well when she settles and decides to show herself off. Hopefully her ring nerves and can be overcome in the future, very much worth the perseverance to resolve the issues.

nicely marked red and white, mature bitch. Good length of head, gentle profile without breaks or exaggeration. Mouth is just level.

Shoulder is a shade forward and a little loaded, giving the impression of a shorter neck than she actually has. Shapely body lines with a well sprung rib and super tuck up. Shortest of backs, into well-muscled rear quarters. Tail correctly set. Had a rock solid topline, which she kept easily on the move. Moved well coming and going with drive.

1st BILBOEN ANGELS KISS (MR & MISS J & S KOCABA & WHITE)
Fully matured, well marked brindle and white bitch – very balanced. Lovely head, sweeping profile with fill and power, long and strong throughout. Eye could be a tad more triangular, ears set correctly on top. Deep under jaw and well off for muzzle strength. Mouth fault. Elegant neck into beautifully mature gun barrel chest, good shoulder. Would like a shade more bone for size. Neat feet. Short in back and powerfully made, I have seen her carrying less weight which didn’t suit her, she looks in excellent condition with that bit more on her. Well-muscled in the rear, correct tail set, she moved with drive but lost her top line. The consummate show girl who knows her way around the ring.

1st MIINROC ENVY ME (MISS F MILLS)
nicely marked red and white, mature bitch. Good length of head, gentle profile without breaks or exaggeration. Mouth is just level. Pleasing eye giving a typical expression, ears carried well but could be placed a tad more on top. Would prefer a bit more strength and power to the head all through. Neck is a good length and leads onto a well-developed forechest, and the straightest of fronts. Excellent cat-like feet, enough bone for size. Shoulder is a shade forward and a little loaded, giving the impression of a shorter neck than she actually has. Shapely body lines with a well sprung rib and super tuck up. Shortest of backs, into well-muscled rear quarters. Tail correctly set. Had a rock solid topline, which she kept easily on the move. Moved well coming and going with drive. Shown in beautiful condition and to perfection by her handler.
