2. Humphries -Crackatari Shockwave - 13 month old brindle pied male, what a cheeky little expression he has and very observant he never took his eyes off me. While observing him on the table i was not disappointed full masked pied with a cracking square head, forehead domed with slight wrinkling he used his ears at all times, similar in type to first, nice deep chest and spring of rib correct topline and gentle roach, would of liked a little more weight on him and softer coat but that didn’t mark him down, one of the best tails covering his bum and low set, this boy powdered around the ring.
