CAIRN THREE COUNTIES 13 Judge: Mr A Firth BEST OF BREED : 1196 BRAYBROOK Mrs S Ch Cloverbrook Codebreaker CAIRN JUDGE THREE COUNTIES 13 Cairn Terriers MPD (7) Good class with some lovely puppies, perhaps things are looking up. Close decision between first two who could change places another day. 1 Inett & Engebretsen’s Carradine Dexter, very showy brindle in very tight coat, small ears used well, eye shape & colour good. Correct topline & tailset, moved steadily & showed well; 2 Currie’s Stirlingview Superhero, smart wheaten with dark points, nice type. All comments for 1 apply to this exhibit. Won over 3 on coat; 3 Mears’ Glenmear Magee. PD (1) 1 Thomas’ Tycadno I Spy, wheaten in very profuse coat which made him look a little short in neck. Movement a little erratic at first but moved soundly when settled. JD (2) 1 Coffell’s Ometto I Am The One And Only, very well presented wheaten in good coat of correct texture. Clean lines with decent length of neck, carried his head well. Head typical with a good dark eye for one so light, alert & steady showman. Liked him a lot; 2 Waugh’s Tribannon War Dance, similar type to 1 but not so steady in movement. Strong upstanding Cairn with an attractive male head. PGD (4) 1 Burgin’s Noncom Hugo First, dark brindle, a balanced Cairn, all male, good head, topline, front & tailset. In profuse coat, moved steadily & soundly; 2 Shannon & Storr’s Brenndarcy Borgen, smart wheaten who showed very well for his handler. A balanced Cairn but slightly smaller overall than 1. In good coat & condition, moved soundly with drive; 3 Bateman & Gompels’ Carradine Terries Tipple. LD (5) 1 Currie’s Stirlingview Stunning, lovely type of Cairn, good size, dark r/br, very showy with typical head & expression. Moved particularly well; 2 Lamb & Saltmarsh’s Renshaw There And Back Again, stood & showed very well for his handler, balanced dark gr/br, lovely strong male head but attractive with a good deep stop & broad skull. Moved steadily; 3 Goldfinch’s Kanawha Whatathriller. OD (5) 1 Braybrook’s Ch Cloverbrook Codebreaker, gr/br in hard condition & correct coat, all male with a beautiful Cairn head, correct eye & good mouth, well balanced, clean shoulders, level topline & correct tailset, strong hindquarters, moved with drive. CC & BOB; 2 Roberts’ Cannwood Cut Above, wheaten male with dark points, smart & well balanced, well muscled, medium throughout & sound. Very attentive to handler, showed well, moved with drive. Two lovely Cairns in first & second, a close decision. RCC; 3 Thompson’s Castleline Bang On Time. MPB (3) 1 Osborn’s Tweslam Mystery Of Magic, wheaten in tight coat, very smart pup who showed particularly well for one so young. Feminine throughout with a lovely flow of neck, moved very soundly indeed, both front & rear. BP; 2 Braybrook’s Cloverbrook Creating Waves, wheaten with dark points & a lovely head, in very profuse coat. Difficult to assess movement, needs some training on the move; 3 Tutchings’ Cloverbrook Touch Of Class at Crowneast. PB (2) 1 Smee’s Malmay Sunshine Sally, dark brindle pup, full of mischief, natural show stance, balanced with an attractive head, medium length of neck & level topline. Alert showgirl & moved steadily; 2 Smith’s Gethlee Star Appeal, nice headed pup with good expression, correct front, neck & shoulders. Not in as good coat as 1 & not so steady on the move. JB (1) 1 Keeves’ Seveek Living The Dream, ultra smart light red, very, very showy, so attentive to handler, feminine head & expression, nicely made throughout, well balanced. Good coat of correct texture. One to watch for the future. PGB (9) 1 Clarke’s Lentrica Sweet Sensation, wheaten/br, gorgeous head, lovely dark muzzle which adds so much to her expression. Good length of neck into a level topline kept on the move, correct tailset. Another excellent showgirl, moved steadily; 2 Kinchin’s Carradine Ruby Tuesday at Pennidazzle, brindle in profuse coat, level topline, good tailset. Preferred length of back of 1. Moved soundly in front & with drive in rear; 3 Osborn’s Tweslam Thistle Be Magic. LB (7) 1 Bateman & Inett’s Carradine In Love With Amy, r/br, most attractive head, dark eye, nice expression, nice size, sound throughout, level topline, correct texture coat. Moved OK; 2 Carter’s Brenndarcy Dizzie Lizzie at Carernwil, wheaten of nice type, lovely head & expression, nicely made throughout with level back & strong hindquarters. Lost out to 1 on coat, new jacket just coming through; 3 Dolan’s Castleline Peggy Sue. OB (6) 1 Clarke’s Conundrum Sweeter For Me for Lentrica, dark brindle with an absolutely lovely head, one of the best about. Good length of neck, level topline kept on the move, straight front, good bone, tail bang on top, moved around the ring as though she owned it with a lovely free flowing stride, going soundly both ways. Very attentive to handler. CC; 2 Braybrook’s Cloverbrook Xtra Factor, brindle, well balanced & bodied, attractive head with lovely Cairn expression, nice length of neck flowing into clean shoulders, strong in rear. Unlucky to meet 1 in such excellent coat. Moved with drive from rear, alert showgirl. RCC; 3 Harding’s Ch Cannwood Remember Holly. ALAN FIRTH |
