1st		Piacente Uomo Saggio	James	Raw young boy, Nice shape to him when stacked, good head shape with a kind eye, good spring to rib for his age and short loin, correct topline with a slight slope from his wither, gently rising over his loin, good angulation behind, but still very loose on the move as to be expected from such a youngster.

1st		Affilato Jump With Style at Rydonmist	Beecham & Sharp	2 lovely puppies of different types both with bags of potential, loved this white and orange boy, clean head with super shape, good eye and soft expression, strong neck and well laid shoulders, straight front legs and strong slightly sloping pasterns, good rib for age, nothing exaggerated in his topline with a slight rise over his rump, liked his square shape when stacked and his angles behind, flowing gait when on the move and handled to perfection, I was pleased to award him the RCC in the challenge and BP
2nd		Inostricani Time Will Tell	Rossiter	Slightly heavier set type than my winner, but this doesn’t distract from his merits, white and brown boy, super head shape, loved his body shape, good neck and shoulders set on well boned legs, good rib for age and correct topline, coat of good length and texture and good rear quarters with a good bend of stifle, moved well, but just not as together as 1 today, his time will come and I look forward to following his progress a he comes of age.

1st		Affilato Jump The Gun	Clark	Litter brother to the PD winner and out of the same mould, stood alone in his class, not as together as his brother, but when settled presented a classic shape, needs to body out more, but that should come with age and maturity, still raw on the move and would like a bit more drive to him.

1st		Fiducia Cho Oyu at Miavita	Giles	Liked this W/O boy when stood and settled, square shape to him with correct topline, pleasing head and good soft expression, well laid shoulders and well sprung ribs, short strong loin and good rear angulation, a bit flighty on the move and found him a bit narrow behind when moving away, time is on his side.

1st		Sh Ch Rubino Spinone del Mucrone with Riccini	Whittingham, Bexon & Wright	When I accepted this appointment, knowing it would be my first at this level in the breed, I had a template in mind of the dog I would be looking for. This male fitted it almost perfectly. Powerfully built, lovely square shape in profile and the most expressive of heads, nothing in exaggeration either in his super head shape, through his flowing lines and correct topline, to his well muscled rear and near perfect footfall, power yet gracefully in his gait I couldn’t resist not giving him the class, DCC and BOB
2nd		Sh Ch Affilato You Can Bank On It (JW)	Clark & Sharp	I liked this dog as he first entered the class, classic head and soft expression, good lay to shoulder and well off for rib, correct topline which he held on the move and well developed rear quarters, moved with drive, but just threw his elbows out on the return, If I’m nit picking I preferred the squarer shape of 1 when stacked. Shame his owner decided not to come back in for the RCC challenge.

Veteran Bitch	.	Dog (2 entries, 0 absent)	Owner	Critique
1st		Sh Ch Bardantop Spells Chaos (JW)	Guest	2 lovely examples of the breed, differing types, but both showing excellent qualities, this bitch is slightly heavier set than 2, showing super head shape and a kind gentle expression, good neck and shoulders and lovely her body shape, coat of correct text and strong rear, preferred her on the move over 2
2nd		Sh Ch Inostricani Mima am Charluben	Jones	W/O oldie who I liked a lot, super shape and size, pretty feminine head and soft expression, good front assembly and good rib, correct through topline and strong behind, found her in good coat. Just not the movement of 1 today.

Minor Puppy Bitch	.	Dog (3 entries, 0 absent)	Owner	Critique
1st		Piacente Mocia at Miavita	Giles	Pretty young girl with plenty of potential, still very immature in head, but should fill out, lovely kind eye to her, moderate in neck and good shoulder placement, lovely shape to her body, but still need to mature, correct angles behind, very raw and loose on the move, but showed enough to allow her to win the class.
2nd		Cartrefyspin Oren Sunburst	Davies	A real baby, good head and expression, and liked her body shape and size, good coat, found her a little straight in stifle behind, not the movement of 1.
3rd		Cartrefyspin Oren Scarlett	Watt	-

Puppy Bitch	.	Dog (2 entries, 0 absent)	Owner	Critique
1st		Inostricani Blossom	Rossiter	Liked this young girl once she’d settled, lovely head shape and soft expression, good neck and straight front legs with slightly sloping pasterns and good feet, good depth to chest for age and found her with a correct topline and strong short loin, liked the width to her rump and good rear angulation, clean on the move and showing good drive.
2nd		Gellini Special Edition	Pugh	Brown roan, another who took time to settle, liked her head and expression, good shoulders and correct through front assembly, found her top line a little too straight for me, correct in rear quarters, straight and true on the move once settled.

1st		Stowledge Scilla at Incantevole (JW)	Kruglow	W/O found her of good overall shape and size, pleasing in head, set on a moderate neck and good shoulders, correct in front and rib well sprung, good topline and short loin, well muscled behind with a good turn of stifle, moved ok, but just found her needing a bit more oomph.

Post Graduate Bitch	.	Dog (3 entries, 0 absent)	Owner	Critique
1st		Fiducia Chamlang	McGregor	An inbetween class, Both top 2 obviously out of puppy and junior, but neither not quite ready to challenge at the top yet, plenty of potential in both, preferred this W/O bitch liked her shape and overall balance, good head shape and soft feminine expression, good front and well sprung rib, correct topline with slight rise over her loin, moved ok, but slightly too close behind, just needs time to fill out and mature.
2nd		Scodinzolare Photoulla	Mortimer	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.

Limit Bitch	.	Dog (5 entries, 2 absent)	Owner	Critique
1st		Gellini Indian Moon	Pugh	Brown roan, heavier set type than 2, liked her soft kind expression, strong neck and correct shoulders, good topline and short coupled, good width across her loin and liked her well muscled thigh and good bend of stifle, moved well showing a steady gait with enough drive and good reach.
2nd		Limoncello Sunrise at Estover Z Niedzwiedziej Jamy	Lewsley	W/O bitch lovely head and expression, balanced in profile, and found her with a good coat, strong behind, moved well, but would like a bit more zip to her.

Open Bitch	.	Dog (7 entries, 1 absent)	Owner	Critique Wow A super class to get my teeth into, 5 fine examples of this wonderful breed all with their merits, A shame my 5th place got spooked and wouldn’t settle as I went over her, 3rd and 4th deserved more, but at this level one is nit picking.
1st		Sh Ch Annilann Temptress del Michiamo (JW)	Anderson & Mayne	When I looked at the final stack and looked down the line this bitch’s head stood out on the day, with her melting almost human like expression, loved her overall shape and balance, best of fronts and super body shape, nothing in exaggeration about her, strong behind and with width all the way through her body, perfect footfall and on the day just showing slightly more about her on the move than 2, BCC
2nd		Sh Ch Inostricani Fianna	James	Bitch I’ve done well for before, best of heads with soft expression, correct shape when stacked, well sprung ribs and short loin, correct topline and with good angles behind, best of coats, nothing exaggerated in her movement, with correct footfall but today I felt the winner had a bit more sparkle about her. Pleased to call her back in and give her the RCC.
