A grizzle of super type and size, racy with a balanced head, neat ear, correct mouth, well placed shouders, spans easily, short coupled and with good quarters.

1st - CH Emblehope Dance and Dance JW (Miss D Bladen)
I must admit not to have recognised her, but apparently she was my Best Puppy last time I awarded CCs. She so appeals for type and soundness. Her blue and tan coat had been well prepared which enhanced her outline, lovely over the neck and shoulder with spannable ribs and a loose pelt, very sound front and back with well angulated quarters, In the challenge she impressed to win the CC.
2nd - Mansergh Plusfours (Miss A Roslin-Williams)
A very typical bitch, racy and narrow throughout in hard muscular condition, Very good to go over and much to like her for. Easy and free on the move. She responded well to her handler. Pleased to award her the RCC but pressed very hard by the limit winner.
