1st  Webb &  Sheppard's  
KILLOUGHERY MISSION TWO FOR INKLEYBOYS
11 month fawn puppy.  Lovely head with dark eye and well carried ears.  A reachy neck leads to good depth to chest, elbows set well under and straight well boned forelegs.  Good feet and strong nails.  Held a good topline on the move with slight rise over loin and tail carried well.  Wiry coat coming along nicely.  Should do well.

Junior Bitch (2 entries, 1 absent)
1st  Sharratt's LYNELOUPER LYNEDENE LADDIE
13 month brindle which appeared  exceptionally tall for his age.  Lovely temperament.  Head held well on decent length of neck, chest deep leading to required tuck up.  Shapely over loin to tail. Hocks set well apart.  Moved easily.
1st MacLeod's BRACHAN NEVE DI NATALIE (AI)
18 month old fawn brindle.  Feminine head with lovely dark eye.  Tight, round feet.  Sturdy neck and good width and depth to chest.  Moved well.

Yearling Bitch (2 entries, 1 absent)
1st  Addington's WOLVEBRIGG ASH

Nearly 2 year old.  Dark eye and well carried small ears.  Would like to see more head furnishings. Shoulders well laid back, elbows set well under chest.  Seemed a little unsettled on the move today.
1st  Wilkinson's RAINSTER EILEX AMONG HUNACRES
A very attractive, well balanced and feminine fawn brindle bitch just out of Junior.  Super teeth.  Good front assembly with reachy neck, well set shoulders leading into a smooth top line with gentle fall away to stern.  Moved easily.

Novice Bitch (2 entries, 1 absent)
1st  Timmins's WOLFHOUSE GRIZZLY
3½ year old with attractive head, well carried on reachy neck.  Good width to fore chest and well laid shoulders. Straight fore limbs, tight feet, strong nails.  Would like to see more tuck up of belly. Top line falls away gently over loin leading to well carried tail of good length.

2nd  Webb & Sheppard's
KILLOUGHERY MISSION TWO FOR INKLEYBOYS
1st  Dawson's TRISTAR DU GRAND CHIEN DE CULANN
AT SHALICO (IMP FRA)
14 month old, finer boned than some.  Round, tight feet, straight fore limbs.  Good depth to chest, tidy elbows and clean underline. Hocks well let down. Not too steady on the move today.
Post Graduate Dog
Post Graduate Bitch (2 entries, 1 absent)
1st  Sharratt's WHITEORCHARD ARES
2½ year old well made dog.  Strong shoulder assembly. Good width across fore chest and hips.  Tight feet on well boned straight legs.  Good length to back and long muscular second thighs.  I felt he carried enough weight and seemed a little sluggish on the move but otherwise a nice dog.
1st Campbell-Woodford's
WHITEORCHARD ADHARA AT KILMACDUAGH
2½ year old fawn brindle with straight fore limbs, depth through chest and slight tuck-up. Top line falls gently away to show a tail of reasonable length.  A little apprehensive today.
Limit Dog (2 entries)
Limit Bitch (2 entries, 1 absent)
1st  Dawson's RED ROCK CANYON OF KING HOWARD LEGENDS OF SHALICO  (IMP FRA)
3¼ year old upstanding dog who stood out here for type.  Lovely head, dark eye and furnishings.  Strong forequarters and well laid shoulders.  Well ribbed. Lovely top line and fall away to tail of good length which was well carried.  Moved with an easy stride.

2nd  Reeves's WHITEORCHARD ARCTURUS
3½ year old with attractive head held well atop strong neck.   Neat ears. Good width at chest and hips. Tidy feet with strong nails and straight legs.  Harsh, wiry coat.  Just not the size of 1st.
1st  Campbell-Woodford's  KILMACDUAGH AEDNAT
6 year old brindle, dark eye and ears well carried.  Strong neck leading to sloping shoulders and good depth to chest and slight tuck up.  Good width across hips.  Moved steadily.

1st   Heather's WHITEORCHARD AURORA JW
2½ year old brindle with a lovely expression, dark eyes and ears held well back. Straight forelegs, good lay back of shoulder, tidy elbows tucked under chest of some depth, leading to a neat tuck up. Moderate stifle angulation enhanced her rear quarters.  Moved well.

2nd  MacLeod's BRACHAN WOLF MOON
3½ year old, dark eye and soft expression.  Big feet, strong nails.  Strong forequarters, elbows well tucked in under deep chest.  Stifles well bent, good width at hips.  Moved OK.

1st  Heather's WHITEORCHARD NIMBUS
7½ year old at his first show.  Attractive masculine head with dark eye.  Strong neck and firm shoulder assembly.  Muscular 2nd thighs.  Moved steadily as befits a gentleman of a certain age.
