PD (1) 1. Winser’s Nixtev Notorious of Lysebourne. 11 mth black. Super boy for balance, outline and size. He has an excellent neck, firm level topline and high set curled tail. Head of correct proportions with dark, expressive eye, correct ears and excellent mouth. Well constructed hindquarters. Impressive side gait. Firm rear action. Needs to settle in front but has plenty of time on his side. Excellent temperament. Best Puppy.

JD (1) 1. Hewett’s Spellcast Secret and Lies. 16 mth cream. Really liked this youngster. So good to go over. Presents a super balanced outline. Excellent for size. Strong neck of correct length, level topline which he holds on the move, high set tail. Good bone. Balanced head of correct proportions with super eye and expression. Good forechest and rib, short well-developed loin. Excellent coat qualities. One destined for big things I feel! Unlucky to meet the two Open boys, but his time will come.

PGD (1) 1. Hewett’s Spellcast Secret and Lies.

OD (2) 1. Hewett’s Ch Spellcast Talk to Me JW. 3 yr old black. Super boy who was a sheer pleasure to judge. Excellent all round. Excels for outline and balance with great neck, topline and tail set. Shown in the best of condition, well muscled throughout. Profuse coat of excellent quality. First class headpiece, with dark, intense eyes, super ears for size and set, scissor bite.

PB (1) 1. Andrew’s Runfold Marsh Mallo. 8 mth cream sable. Rather unsure of herself at the moment and took a while to settle. Feminine headpiece of correct proportions with dark expressive eye, good ears for size and set and scissor bite. Nice moving girl when she got going. Good bone. Topline needs to settle.

PGB (1) 1. Day’s Desaria Lotte. 3 yr old cream. This girl presents a nice balanced outline with good neck, topline and tail set. Good for size. Dark eye of correct shape. Well proportioned head. Moves well when viewed from the side, but could be firmer in front. Good quality coat.

O (2) 1. Chambers’ Ch Nosregor Bewitched for Musique. 3 yr old brown. Beautiful girl who totally captivated me with her intense, intelligent expression. Classic headpiece of correct proportions, excellent eye for shape, colour and set, super ears. Presents a totally balanced outline with good clean neck, firm level topline and excellent high set curled tail. Profuse coat. Brisk, effortless movement. A real character. Shown to perfection. Best Bitch and just pipped at the post for BOB by the super black boy. 2. Powell’s Desaria Fanny Ann at Brookwell. 5 yr old blue. Another nice bitch who presents a balanced picture with good neck, level topline and high set tail. Head of good proportions with good eye for shape and colour. Excellent mouth. Quality coat. Not the bone of winner. Could be more positive in front action, but nice side gait and firm rear action. Reserve Best Bitch.
