Venue: The Market Hall, Maidstone
Three nice youngsters at different stages of development.
1st: Hartswelin Tip Top (Ms L J Godefroid) The oldest of the trio at 14mnths. Handy sized grizzle bitch with good head properties. Well angulated through the shoulder to well laid ribs. Easily spanned. Used herself well on the move, maintaining a level top line. In very good condition and presented in correct double jacket. She won this class on maturity and rib shape.
2nd: Otterwood Blueberry (Mr and Mrs Hollingsbee) BP PG2
3rd: Hoathwood Happy Hour (Mrs S Hales)
1st: Hartswelin Far Away (Ms L J Godefroid ) BOB, Rising 2 yr old grizzle and tan bitch who presented a balanced picture. Very good head properties. Nice reach of neck into well laid shoulders. Good length of rib to well angulated hind quarters. In fit condition with a very good double coat and pliable pelt. Best mover of the day, really covering the ground well. Coat and movement gave her the BOB over RBOB.
2nd: Otterwood Gill of Lyndham (Mrs J D Elliott)
1st: Dandyhow Queen Vic at Hoathwood (Mrs S Hales) RBOB, Dark grizzle bitch, rising 3 who has a really lovely head. Good strong jaw with big teeth. She presented a balanced picture with a good top line through to an excellent shaped tail. Very well presented and fit looking, she was a little short of top coat, and although moved well enough in profile she was a little lethargic in the challenge which is where she lost out to BOB.
