Not the biggest of bitches but she was all in proportion. She has a feminine head with a bright eye and width to her skull. Her firm neck led to well set shoulders but not quite the length of upperarm and forechest I was looking for, deep ribs with enough back rib, the handler needs to watch as she does tend to level her topline. She was steady on the move which earned her the class and RBOB. |

brown roan with balanced lean head and divergent head planes . Thick skin and super, harsh coat, oval bone and compact feet.. Quite upright in front and straight in rear, so equal angulation allowing decent movement. |

Lovely feminine head, good reach of neck, correct shoulder, nice turn of stifle, a touch long in the loin for me and not quite the condition of 1 on the day. |

B/R, sweet very correct head, angulation okay, coat nice, close wire feet, slightly long for me just needed more substance in body. |

A quality bitch with substance and strength, well-boned and deep in chest. Typical head and expression, balanced outline with good proportions. Moved soundly, though not with quite the ease and freedom of the class winner. I was pleased to award her Reserve Best of Breed. |

Brown roan heavier in head than 1, but still correct in shape and size, well boned, but found her topline too level for me, strong behind, but not overall balanced on the move as 1 another with time on her side. |

brown bitch well made in front, very nice prosternum and good in upper arm. Good depth and spring of rib. Good width across first and second thigh and across the pelvis. Just a wee bit long in rear pastern. Could be more animated on the move. |

A bitch of good type with an appealing shape and a lovely head, featuring a well-proportioned skull and muzzle, low-set ears, and a soft, expressive look. Displays good neck length, a pleasing outline, and a strong topline. Wasn’t as coordinated or forward on the move as I would’ve liked today. RBOB. |
