1. Magson’s Castlegolden Classy Girl – Well presented girl with enough bone and stood on compact feet. Good spring of rib and deep brisket.

2. McShane’s Meggiemac Tan Tangfastics – Black and tan bitch who overall was of a larger build than 1. Presented in super coat and condition, level topline.

Afghan Hound

SYG (3,1)

1. Kirk-Vickers & Hughes Istani Liza Minnelli With Finkime – Judged this bitch as a puppy and she has matured well and settled down. Pleasing head, long neck into her shoulders but I would prefer a little more lay to this and more return to the upper arm. Good turn of stifle, moved very soundly, just lacks the required ring to the tail. RBOB

2. Kidd’s Cloudside Prince Of Light – Another I have judged previously. Upstanding male, . Masculine in head with a slight stop, strong neck, front construction was good enough, but ribcage still needs to spring, presented in lovely coat and condition. A real handful for the owner

L (1,0)

1. Hughes Istani Bob Dylan At Finkime – Sound moving male, shown in good condition, needs to develop in topline but presented well. Could have a little more front angulation and turn of stifle and this reflects in his side profile movement. Good ring to his tail.

1. Noble & Wilcox’s Ch Aqua’s The Bitchisback At Bichoux – 8 yo bitch shown in the most super coat and condition. I judged her as a puppy and on that day she really stood out and was full of quality.

A quality example of the breed. BOB

He has a classic head with an alert expression and good chiselling, good length to his neck with a slight curve.
