PD/B 2(0)

1. McGreade’s Vandreem Imperial Ocean for Frostia. Preferred the overall balance and in particular rear angulation on the day, correct head and expression, absolutely sound on the move and parallel on the out and back, BB & BOB.

2. Giannattasio’s Vandreem Imperial Olympia. Very much a baby at this stage and found it hard to settle but keen alert expression, good shoulder, correct on the move in profile, a little untidy on the out and back.

JD/B 1(0)

1. McGreade’s Vandreem Imperial Ocean for Frostia. Repeat.

1. Woodhead’s Novaskaya Yelana Lefay at Pashka. Smart young bitch, keen alert expression, correct eye, compact in type, balanced angulation but tended to toe in on the out and back.

OD/B 3(1)

1. Woodhead’s Nikara It’s Kamochi with Pashka. Compact in type than 2, correct head, correct eye, keen expression, good shoulder, balanced throughout and covered good ground in profile, BD & BP.

2. Collinson’s Vandeem Imperial Mario at Norjack JW. Very well handled and presented male but for me top of the range, in the context of size and a little untidy when moved in profile but it was a relatively small ring.
