Mr K Berry |
I would like to thank the Crufts Committee for giving me the opportunity of judging the breed that took over my life some 30+ years ago. It was a day I shall Treasure the rest of my life it was a double pleasure for me when watching the Group judging - and the commentator introduced Mrs. S.D. Burgess doyenne of the breed, to present the Group awards. I hope she enjoyed her day and that she liked what I and my co-judge put forward. To the many exhibitors whether placed or not, a big thank you for entering under me and to the packed ringside for their warm, sporting applause. |

A credit to the breed and his owner, not one ounce over or under weight. Perfect bite, Lilly white teeth, moved with drive and still had great style, lovely rich chestnut markings. Looked like he was enjoying his day out – it was great for me to see him again, I have always been a Harry fan. |

Aranel Ballistic
What an outstanding blenheim, for me he has all the qualities that attracted me to the breed. Starting with beautiful head, large dark, well set eyes, flat skull dense pigment nice reach of neck, perfect top line, good bone, well turned stifle, correct tail set and carriage, stood and showed his socks off! His breeders must be so proud to have bred such a wonderful cavalier whose virtues far out weighed any faults he may have and for me, that is what judging is all about - looking for the virtues in the breed. CC & BOB I felt so proud seeing him short listed in the Toy Group. |

Mr B Rix |
I was thrilled to have the opportunity to judge at this prestigious show. I would like to thank all the exhibitors for presenting clean well groomed exhibits. In many classes the same dog places could easily be reversed on another day. I was concerned about the number of dogs with poor pigment, albeit it is winter and I was judging bitches, therefore hormones could be an influence. Whilst I am not a mouth fanatic, it surprised me how many incorrect mouths I saw outside of the puppy classes. Overall the size, type and movement of the Cavaliers I judged were very good, particularly in the younger classes - which must bode well for the future. |
