Of the desired body proportions and topline , good hindquarters with a developing width of second thigh. Best mover in the class.
2nd		Piacente Incenso	Gilman	8 month old White and Orange Litter brother to1 and many of the same remarks apply. I preferred his head, but not yet as well developed bodily as his brother. Moved well when settled.

1st		Inostricani Time Will Tell	Rossiter	Best Puppy in Breed. Lovely 10 month old Brown Roan, very typical of this kennel with his lovely correct height to length ratio. Good head with correct head planes and pronounced occiput. Short strong neck into well laid shoulders. Excellent feet and bone. Loved his easy Spinone trot, moved well for one so young. Good texture to his coat and desired thick skin.
2nd		Affilato Jump With Style at Rydonmist	Beecham & Sharp	11 month old White and Orange boy with lots to like about him and much more mature than the other pups in the class. Good head. Well muscled strong neck into good shoulders and front and balanced hindquarters. Moved well. I just felt that my winner was more mature in body which gave him the more typical outline.

1st		Diggmere Winwood Ranger	Cayford & Hanscombe	A lovely robust Brown Roan dog, who played his handler up a bit but his placing and RCC could not be denied. Typical outline, strong bone with good head and expression, ears well set on. Very good front, well ribbed, plenty of heart and lung room. Well muscled loin. Hindquarters were muscular with good width of second thigh. Moved well, coat and skin good.
2nd		Talpalupo Lazzaro at Lajatico	Wain	Giving away a bit in age and maturity to 1 but a White and Orange boy with lovely head and expression, correct head planes and pronounced occiput. Powerful crested neck into well laid back shoulders, topline correct. Hind quarters well muscled and with good bend of stifle. Good large feet. Moved with a relaxed trot. Just needs a little more body to complete the picture, which I am sure will come with age.

1st		Sh Ch Rubino Spinone del Mucrone with Riccini	Whittingham, Bexon & Wright	WOW! White and Orange boy that just comes alive on the move with that typical trot, maintaining his topline, and just looks like he could work all day without tiring. Divergent head planes with pronounced occiput, lean skull. Eyes giving the desired expression. Crested strong neck merging into well laid shoulder, strong oval bone and correct feet. Good topline into powerful hindquarters with good width of second thigh. Coat and skin typical of the breed. Well handled particularly on the move where he was allowed to demonstrate his lovely movement at the correct speed. Delighted to give him the CC and BOB and can only get even better with maturity.
2nd		Inostricani On a Mission	Hinton	White and Orange boy, different type to 1 but I liked his square balanced outline and good bone and feet. Head a little broad in back skull for my taste but a well constructed dog that showed power and substance throughout. Moved well. Pushed hard for RCC.
