Richmond Championship Show 2016

Judge – Nigel Bryant

It was very pleasing to have no absentees from this small entry but sad that there were no young males.

1st Winhampton Over The Yardarm of Harrifield JW SH. CM - Thorogood
This dog has a pleasing head with deep stop, well defined occiput & low set ears. A strong neck leads onto a level topline which was held on the move. The front is straight with good layback of the shoulders. The rear is well angulated giving plenty of drive when moving. Good muscletone completes the picture.
2nd Creeark Artreyu - Hirst
Much the same can be said of this dog but I preferred the better topline & rear movement of the first.

1st Tweedsmuir Mikado - Monaghan
This dog is a picture standing with the topline & shoulders that I like. Well developed chest with excellent ribs giving support to that topline. Moved well but not consistently on the day.
2nd Tavirosh Old Yeller - Charlesworth-Ironside
Liked his head with clean eyes & good stop. He has good weight but smaller than first. A little reluctant to stand properly but clearly enjoyed moving round the ring

1st Sh Ch Tweedsmuir Beautiful Dream Among Suelynda JW - Boden
Nice feminine head with a strong neck. Topline is level & held on the move. Good angulation at front & rear. A little overweight but has the overall fitness to carry it. She is another who would rather move than stand still & when she moved the tail never stopped wagging.
2nd Micklemess Bella Rosa - Croft
Another beautifully feminine head with good stop. Lighter in bone than first. Good shoulders & rear angulation. At 10 years she moved round the ring with purpose

1st Suelynda Pride Of Our Alley - Boden
A typical youngster at 10 months, needing time to develop & build the muscle. She clearly has the frame to build on with good angulation at the rear. Shoulders are well laid back but the development of the ribs is needed to straighten the front. Movement was good.

1st Marshalver Miss Attitude - Boden & Monaghan
The young handler clearly knows what she is trying to achieve but this young Clumber was making it difficult. Good head, nice neck & shoulders. Ribs developing well. Good rear angulation. Moved well.

1st Creeaark Fantastica - Hirst
Well bodied with a strong rear end. Front assembly is straight with good shoulder layback. Head is well developed with a good stop. Overall she is a little long for me. Moved well
2nd Winhampton Oops A Daisy - Wilson
This bitch has a good clean outline with good angulation to front & rear. The rear movement was strong but could be straighter.

1st Mitanmat Shannon of Belcrum - Charlesworth-Ironside
A nice compact bitch with good bone. Good shoulders & rear angulation. The tail is short & in good proportion to the rest of the body. Another that wanted to fidget when being stood but she certainly knows how to move
2nd Tioga Magic Spell - Roberts
Longer in body than the first & generally bigger. She has good bone & looks very alert. Moved well

1st Sugar Loaf Maya Of Tikal Nord Jv-11 - Page
Her head has a good stop & flews, the ears are low & the occiput is clearly defined. A strong neck leads onto a level topline. The front is straight & well boned & the shoulders angulation is good. The rear is well muscled with correct angulation. She has a deep chest & is short coupled. On the move she looked effortless with a tail being well used. She was my standout dog of the day & I had no hesitation in giving her the CC & BOB.
