SAC Junior Dog or Bitch (4 entries)

1. Miss J Tong and Mrs L Crane's CRANVARL MAUDE  11.5 months old  red and white bitch puppy, in flowery terms represents a pretty spring blossom with all the promises for a gorgeous full summer's bloom. Refined and elegant frame stood on the table with dignity and confidence,  most  typical expression with perfectly shaped and sized eyes giving the demanded look of astonishment , noticeable hare-feet reminding me of    slender paintbrushes.  On the move she could not put a foot wrong , showing off her lovely outlines and proportions, already very good coat of correct silky straight texture.

2. Ms L Crane's CARNVARL MACEY GREY Red/white litter sister to 1st and  represents the same type and qualities described above   in a slightly bigger frame, Coat is coming nicely and showed to full advantage.

3. .Mrs C Partington-Palmer's SHARLARNA STARMAN

SAC Postgraduate Dog or Bitch (5 entries, 1 absent)

1. T M Jackson's AMANTRA EIJI Just over a year old this male, but already manages to pack full qualities in a desired small frame, which are usually seen in slightly bigger specimens. Equally handsome and refined facial features,   pretty and at the same time undoubtedly masculine,  lovely cushioning, perfectly rounded rib cage and dainty bone gives cobbyness without losing daintiness.  elegant neck and ultra-short back , pleasing feathering,  moved with confidence. 

.2.  S Rooney and J and A Green's JASCHIN PAWS FOR APPLAUSE 

      19.5 months old bitch who has so much to fall in love with at first sight.  Exquisite head         with the cutest astonished expression.  Shiny dark eyes of correct size,  dainty  frame,           attractive lightly marked with coat of correct texture and       presented in pristine                   condition. Moved with purpose but after a full day's showing not quite in full showing           mood. A very close decision.

1. Mr T A and A M Quinn's HARLOUVILLE UPTOWN GIRL

    3 years fully mature bitch shown in full bloom, ticking most boxes on my wish list.  Very        uplifting to see that it is indeed possible to have all the widths and girths in the right              places, but still remaining aristocratic and elegant. Carrying that prettiest of heads with t.      the cheekiest face. A proud and dynamic mover in perfect harmony with her handler. 

2. S Rooney and J and A Green's LITTLETIGERS INNUENDO WITH JASCHIN 

    3 years male just on the dawn of full maturity and truly eye-catching. Very pleasing head      with correct expression, lightly marked with clear glossy black markings , groomed to            perfection. The tiny bit of extra length in the loin used to full advantage with his excellent      stride and drive.

3. Mrs J Paradise's SHARDLOW KNICKERBOKA GLORY SHCM
