Mrs C Deans (Clockpelters) |
| First and foremost, my heartfelt thanks must go to the Officers and Committee for giving me the great honour of judging the Club’s Open Show at what must be one of the most popular open shows of the cavalier year. I really enjoyed the day, and was grateful for the opportunity to go over some really top class exhibits. Hardly any exhibits today had gay tails, I but would just sound a note of caution on not going too far the other way with low tail sets. Eyes are generally really good now, practically no white of eye seen, and most were of good size and shape. Heavy rains just the day before had given way to a warm sunshine allowing the show its usual happy garden party atmosphere. There was an ample ring beside the marquee, set out in the in-out style, making it possible to judge the dogs on the table under cover. My thanks to the stewards looked after me admirably, and for the lunch which was excellent, and for my lovely gift of a picture from a favourite artist which will be much admired. |

Cranvarl Jimmy Mack Blenheim boy of 7 months, up to size for age. Has outstanding rich chestnut colour on his pearly coat. Needs time to mature, head still to break, but even head markings on pearly white make a beautiful picture. Strides out well, and although a tad close behind right now, he has ample time to improve. |

Castlewytch Rave On with Russmic Compact, short bodied blenheim with an attractive unexaggerated head of correct proportions. He is so nicely marked overall, pearly white with rich tan markings. He’s a sound positive mover with great style, good shoulders leading to straight back with tail flowing out behind. |

Castlewytch Perfection of Charnavale Such a smart tri dog, these two littermates can easily change places another day. Perfectly balanced, well angulated, sound on the move, drives out with aplomb. Loved the double pigmentation around the eye, the dark round eye and jet black nose. |

Charnell Jameson Blenheim of 11 months, cracking head, round dark eye, and so full and well cushioned, with a good reach of neck flowing past well laid back shoulders through to a level top line with well set tail. The angulations fore and aft were correct, the overall picture is of a lovely sound and well muscled dog with a bright future. |

Kellorian Head Over Heels JW Eight and a half year old blenheim shown in his usual immaculate condition. He is a real credit to his owner. Well broken colouration, a lovely size and overall make, arched neck level topline and well off for bone. Rich dark sparkling eyes. Still moving very soundly. He has what I call an old–fashioned head by which I mean a stronger fuller head than is the current fashion. |

Tonmil Flashback To Cream Very sturdy Blenheim of 10 years, keeping his colour well, and an overall pleasing make and shape. Would have liked a more upright hock. |

Cavaliegh Ice Man Fabulous dog with a wonderfully full silky coat. Very glamorous, with rich tan on pearly white background, pretty but masculine head with round dark eye, good pigmentation, exquisite little black nose, well cushioned foreface, well feathered ears well set on over flat skull, He is well angulated in front and behind, is strong in back with plenty of bone, and drives round the ring gracefully with well balanced movement, his tail is well set on and flows out from the spine at the correct angle. If I must criticise him at all, he could be shorter in loin – just a wee bit. |

Sancana Daddy Cool Wow, the eyes had it here. What a beautiful face on this black and tan, he’s quite stunning. Straight shiny coat too. Quite a substantial boy, short backed with a level top line and very good on the move. I would have preferred slightly less angulation in the rear, but overall a lovely dog. |

Narayden The Bruse in Poppywood I love this b/t boy, with his silky coat, overall great make and shape, together with his sound movement. Shame tail carriage lets him down. |

Lochbuie Keswick Richly coloured Blenheim, very smart boy, lovely size. Good tail set. Moderate angulation, well let down hocks, moves out soundly and with adequate drive. |

Newell’s |
Corbianne Charlottes Boy A boy of substance – maybe a little too much. His head is well cushioned, level with ears well set, a round eye showing a little white which detracted from an otherwise pleasant face. I would prefer a longer neck, but he was neat in the shoulder, which was well laid back and carries a level topline and well set on tail. |

Garlouchi Just Magic of Charnavale JW Handsome 5 year old, still looking good, the term "real Toy Spaniel" suits him well. Lovely compact dog, classic markings, wealth of coat. Round dark eye, well cushioned foreface, level head with ears well set, arched neck, well laid shoulders, level topline, and a happy temperament. Moves out with drive, well balanced and sound on the move. |

Estrid Thomas Blenheim, rather proud of his tail, but enjoying his day. Unfortunately his owner didn’t present him for me to make further evaluation. |

Castlewytch Touch Of Class This little lady is aptly named. My congratulations to this breeder as litter mates Perfection and Rave On also won well today. Eyes large round and dark with well pigmented rims, black nose with well cushioned foreface, correct ear placement. Sturdy, with moderate bone, crested neck, shoulders well laid back, well ribbed, level topline. On the move she is elegant, sound and true, with a good driving action. |

Embeth Bonny Boat Tri bitch, short backed and glamorous. Many of the above notes apply to this girl too, most particularly in head, but would prefer a tighter tail set, which just falls a bit at the croup. |

Ellemich Infamous Another lovey girl with littermates doing well. This perky young lady is well put together, with a pretty head. She matches the breed standard well in very many ways. Would maybe like her a tad shorter in back, and her coat was a little wayward today. |

Svena Love Song Very sound ruby, with much to be admired. A lovely unexaggerated head, medium length of nose, pigment good, level head and ears well set on. Well ribbed up, good length of neck, well laid shoulder and correct angulations. True on the move, well muscled. |

Cavaliegh Honesty This class was headed by two girls quite similar in type. The markings here were quite heavy, but the face very pretty with black lips, jet black nose, black eye rims with large round dark eye, level head, well set ears, moderate stop. The body was well ribbed, with moderate bone, crested neck leading to neat well laid back shoulders, level topline and well set tail. She was balanced and strong on the move. She could be a tad shorter in loin for perfection. |

Beaudale Bo Peep Compact, petite ruby with good length of coat and feathering. She is ultra feminine in head, has a moderate stop and lovely large round dark eye, is nicely angulated fore and aft, has a crested neck, is well balanced with a good turn of stifle, well muscled thigh and is sound on the move. At 2 years of age she is still quite small but rubies are notoriously slow to fully mature. |

Russmic Isadora at Bowfort Very pleasing, well ribbed up, good bone, excellent tail set. Has a good dark eye, good pigment, no exaggerations and is sound on the move. Not quite the coat of the winner, but overall a very decent type. |

Crested neck, well laid back shoulders, excellent topline, and correct tail set. Maybe a tad short on leg v length of back, but sound nonetheless and moved with drive. |
