SPECIAL CLASSES

Judge: Anne Worth

I was delighted to be asked to judge the specials class at this friendly society’s open show. Despite a low entry overall today I had some lovely WSS to go over and I thank the exhibitors for their entry.

CLASS A: Special Junior Dog or Bitch

1st - Tew’s Pamicks Field of Dreams. B. Very feminine bitch who I have admired since I saw her as a puppy. Lovely head. Good length to neck. Well placed shoulders, straight front. Very balanced, mature body with good spring of rib. Well angled rear. good bone and feet. Shown in lovely coat. moved well but gives her handler a hard time as she tries to go too fast.

2nd -  Davis’ Julita Rutland. D. Young dog with lovely bone and feet. Good neck, shoulders. Nicely angled rear. Lovely body, balanced outline. Moved well, just needs to mature into his frame.

3rd -  Jones’ Julita Rumours at Trosby

CLASS B: Special Post Graduate Dog or Bitch

1st -  Courtney’s Sycarth Land of My Fathers. Stood alone. Very pretty bitch. Good front and rear, needs to fill out in body for a more balanced look. In excellent coat. Moved okay.

CLASS C: Special Len Morgan Memorial Open Stakes Dog or Bitch

Three lovely bitches headed up this class and I'm sure all three could win on a different day.

1st - Lancett’s Coedybrain Nia at Cwmbeili. B. A very honest bitch. Lovely to go over and it is difficult to find anything you may want to change with her. Has matured nicely since her litter and is now the finished picture. Not a “flashy” bitch on the move but is very sound back and front which today won her this class. Surely top honours cannot be far away.

2nd - Sutherland’s Sh Ch Jacranella Symphony. B. Another really lovely bitch, similar comments as winner apply. Very balanced, feminine head, well made throughout. In lovely coat and condition. Today was not moving steadily behind which cost her first place.

3rd - Madeley’s Bahri Flaming Star at Maytag
