1.  MacDonald's , Corimist All That Glitters.  Lovely, well balanced and honest outline on this 2 year old black and white Bearded Collie bitch who was well proportioned throughout.  Her head was in proportion to body and well shaped.  Front on it was feminine with good breadth of muzzle and lovely kind eye.  Neck was slightly arched, of good length, clean in throat and set cleanly into wither. Pleasing in topline, which was strong and held well.  Just enough depth of chest for her age and as such not too much daylight under her body.  Quarters were well proportioned and she had good length to body with appropriate balance of rib to loin.   Easily, sound workmanlike movement going around the ring, carrying herself well.
2. Carter's Zentaur The Fizz Factor ShCEx.  Rising 4 year old Newfoundland black male, slowly maturing as one would expect from a giant breed and I thought he was nicely coming into his own.  Scored in angulation both fore and aft which was fairly equal and with his quarters of good width and depth they lent themselves well to a good outline.  Lovely bone and feet.  Head was clean and he was generally free from exaggeration.  Wonderful dark eye which was well set.  Neck flowed well into a firm topline which he held both standing and on the move. A strong and steady mover with adequate length of leg to give a fair stride.
3.  Broadbank's  Nyandor Never Say Never ShCEx. 4 year old Rottweiler girl.
