1st: 345 HOPE, Mrs J Testaverde Wizard Returns. A little frustrating as this honest youngster needed a calmer communication from handler to show his worth. He has type, good bone and was fit and I did catch a touch of decent foot action,. 

Class 141 PD (1 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: 358 WILLIAMS, Mr Edward Richard & WILLIAMS, Mrs Davini Stowledge Stephano. 11 months and has positives. I would prefer better head planes; he has a good ear placement and is ok for topline. Stands on good legs and feet. A decent moving dog turned out in grand coat. Will present a better picture when he loses a little puppy fat.  

Class 142 JD (3 Entries) Abs: 1
2 decent dogs, both with a useful future.

1st: 350 MAYNE, Miss L & ANDERSON, Mrs J & STEERE, Ms V Michiamo Vivvy Wizz. Lovely head, kind eye, clean skull, through cheeks to gentle stop and flowing foreface. He has bone, balance and shape depicting the breed with strength and soundness. Smooth activity. 
2nd: 354 WAGH, Mrs & Mr D & D Lucoru Fire And Ice For Dewdhala. He is a little heavier through, than the winner which spoils the overall outline. However, his is well constructed, therefore good foot placement on the move. 

Class 144 LD (2 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: 337 CULLING, Mr Phil & CULLING, Mrs Terril Lucoru Blown Over. Feel his day will come. He has shape with quality features require of the breed. he is masculine, clean with strength in bone and decent dog. Topped by supple skin and thick wire coat. He settled to put up a decent performance. 
2nd: 344 HOPE, Mrs J Testaverde Selwyn Flogit. Just not quite as strong as the winner behind and could have a stronger muzzle. however, he presented a balance of outline was produced in good condition with hard thick coat and worked well on the move.

Class 145 OD (1 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: 356 WHITTINGHAM, Mrs Suzanne & BEXON, Mr Christopher & Sh Ch Rubino Spinone Del Mucrone With Riccini.

1st: 342 HIBBS, Mrs M Testaverde's Gift To Re A Pia. 6 mth baby and what a young charmer. She has everything that is asked for and was handled to give her confidence. She couldn’t move badly as her construction stated. Should enjoy a lovely future.
2nd: 341 HASTINGS, Mr Alexander & HASTINGS, Mrs Kathryn Feriiia Neera. 8 mth and needs to develop on. Often at this age they are not the cute baby or the one maturing on. Not quite working with the handler and her coat needs to come on. 

Class 148 PB (4 Entries) Abs: 1
1st: 357 WHITTINGHAM, Mrs Suzanne & WRIGHT, Mr Philip Riccini Carmen. All 3 siblings at differing stages and all have appeal. What a useful litter. This youngster is bang on form and so very typical with flowing line depicting breed features. Clean, healthy, strength and femininity, today she had it all to take her place with the winners.  Res CC. BPIB.

However, her sisters cannot be overlooked and let’s see how they all turn out as each has good formation and type.
