But there’s more news from the show…. No Show Champions since December 2025, and then we have three in as many weeks…! And what a day for the Maycourts.
This week it was the turn of ‘Yogi’, who will now be know as Sh Ch Maycourt Heartbreaker ShCEx (subject to RKC approval), having won his 3rd CC. It was quite an emotional moment, with lots of tears, hugs and congratulations for Martin Edworthy, who later said he felt sure that Margaret was looking down on it all & joining in on the celebrations. Huge Congratulations!
‘Pepper’ – Sh Ch Maycourt Take Me To The Top JW (strkca) won her 4th CC for Di Courtier and Hannah, and went on to win Best Of Breed. Congratulations, always nice to get that 4th one…
