Class 488 PGD (3 Entries) Abs: 0 

Difficult class with three very different types. 
1st: 1265 HARRISON, Ms Christine & DAVIES, Mrs Hilary Khamsin's Phoenix at Charrioak

Smooth dog in great condition well constructed but would have preferred a bit more length overall in body . He has a super head and eye, good neck and lay of shoulder if a bit steep in upper arm, excellent ribbing and good quarters. When he settled in movement showed a good profile.

2nd: 1251 CLANFORD, Ms Julia Canapus Fortuna

Good cream boy of excellent proportions, not at one with his handler today and paid the price . When he moved properly he covered the ground well.

This beautiful dog pressed the winner hard today. Super head , long neck, correct shoulder construction, deep ribbing, correctly angulated quarters . Also a super outline on the move. I was really torn between these first two and wish I could have judged this boy as a younger dog . Res CC .
