1st: 1814 WATKINS, Ms Tereza & BUGDEN, Miss Jess Ch Hawksflight Hot Pursuit JW 15 month old red who can not be ignored. He has amazing ring prescence and is completely at one with his handler. Together they demand attention. My notes say ‘he can not stand wrong - places himself correctly every time he stands he is so well made’. Lovely outline, gently sloping topline, ideal tailset. Moved with the desired hackney action. Alert and active at all times. Correctly shaped head, one from the top drawer. An honour to award him CC & BOB. Delighted to see him win the TOY GROUP and see him perform so well in the BIS ring.
