"A good entry numerically with excellent standards. I was rather surprised by a general lack of quality in the youngster classes, notably over-long hocks, soft toplines, narrow skulls, long muzzles and incorrect bites, though pleased with those placed. Pedigree studying is essential in breeding programmes, however although future generations may be a cause for concern, I found soundness and breed type easy to access in the Limit and Open classes where several real quality exhibits has to settle for minor placings."
