2. Edworthy’s Brightmeadow Man Of Steel, BPIB. 9 month old liver dog, Nice wedge shaped head with correct eye colour, well set ears, good length of neck and well laid shoulders, nice straight forelegs and round feet, good body but could use a tad more rib which I am sure will come, good rear quarters used well on the move.

1st Harris Brightmeadow Wish Come True At Dreamcurl 9 month black girl with correct coat and head, black nose, intelligent eye and correct earset. Strong moderate length neck set smoothly into good shoulder lay. Stood over straight forelegs and neat feet. Good body properties for a youngster being good in forechest, chest deep and ribbed well back, level topline with overall strength, moderate bend of stifle demonstrating effortless movement, tail held correctly. BP, PG3
2nd Courtier Maycourt Cover Shot This 18 month old liver bitch just wasn’t happy and I couldn’t fully get hands on. On the stack she appeared to have a nicely constructed head, good body properties with good bone throughout and good angulation and in good coat. Unfortunate that I couldn’t assess her properly.
Open (2,1)
1st Courtier Maycourt Take Me To The Top 18th month black bitch, feminine and presented in good coat. Correct wedge shape head, dark brown eye with kindly intelligent expression and correct ear set, moderate neck into correct front assembly, elbows tucked in. Strong through balanced level topline to good rear assembly with moderate angulation. Good chest, deep brisket to elbow and ribbed well back. Good bone, tight feet, making the most of the ring area she moved with purpose with correct tail carriage. BOB
