GLEN OF IMAAL BIRMINGHAM NATIONAL 23 Judge: Mr Tim Harrison GLEN OF IMAAL JUDGE BIRMINGHAM NATIONAL 23 LD (3,1) 1 Garner’s Jeonty Murphy Shading Dark. First impressions of this smart young blue male are of a very typical Glen male, however, he gave his handler the hardest of times and tried his best to throw away his chances! He has a most pleasing head and expression, lovely bone and masculinity, you could never question his gender! He is of good size and substance, well bodied and superior muscle tone. When settled a true and positive mover with a most lovely outline with correct rise over the loin, co -ordinated reach and drive, I could not deny him the CC. I hope his title follows soon 2 Goerge’s Marfidal Jerez Dulce at Romainville, a pleasing male of good type, coat coming in nicely. I would like to see him with a little more condition. Today, he couldn’t match the movement or sheer presence of 1. 1 Rogerrts’ Ch Jeonty Dameron Anakin. 3 year old wheaten with the best of heads and expression. He presents a very typical picture stood and moved ok. Coat presented to an advantage, pleasing in typical breed outline. In my thoughts for top honours but I felt that a little more body would complete the picture. 2 Harley Abberann Running Down A Dream At Donvaleset, mature wheaten dog who I found to be pleasing in breed type. He is a nicely headed dog, but not quite the movement I was looking for 3 Hardy, Amhard Manhattan 1 Hannington’s Eng & Bel Dutch Int Ch Esp Ch Boudivella Osca 8 year old wheaten male who is very, very breed typical. He possesses a good head with teeth of a good size. Typical too in front with enough bow. Solid, well made body, matching angulation both ends. Well developed in rib and loin. A good co-ordinated mover .Res CC, just outshone on ring presence by the younger male. 1 Hannington’s Boudivella Rosie. this 9 month old brindle is a very promising puppy. She is a nice make and shape, presented in good coat and moved well. Although standing alone, I feel she is quite capable of winning in good company: 1 George’s Romainville Classy n Sassy Young wheaten of excellent breed type. Femininity with substance. Her outline stacked and on the move is exactly as I would want it to be. She has a lovely head and expression, excellent jaw, good ear set. She already has strength in her neck and body, one part seamlessly leading to the next. Her movement is sound and true, beautifully co ordinated . She is between coats, but there was enough to show me what will come. On her initial examination I thought she would be hard to beat, in the challenge for the BCC her superior balance and outline stacked and moving topped the entry of females today. In the challenge against the dog CC winner she continued to impress with her absolute ease of movement, my pleasure to declare her BOB 2 Kirkwood’s Cazcade Betty Boop. Pleasing blue brindle girl of pleasing type, make and shape, just outmoved today.: 1 Hannington’s Mo Stor Ailin Of Tatler Jack’s Clann at Boudivella, pleasing wheaten girl presented in good coat. Overall type is good, well ribbed and strong loin. Typical in front, today, moved a little close away 1 Hardy’s Amhard Rapid Beat. Young blue girl of pleasing type and proportions. She was thoroughly enjoying her time in the limelight! It will be interesting to see her in a year or so to see the difference maturity of body brings. 1 George’s Romainville China Blue, presented in excellent coat this blue girl is a little too much for me all round. However, she is of good type with the correct proportions and has a good head and lovely expression. Her movement was OK, just lacking sparkle today 2 Hardy’s Amhard Raspberry Fizz, a much showier girl, a wheaten of a better size for me, feminine yet retaining substance. Presented in excellent coat, nice enough head, just not quite as true in rear movement 1 Rogers’ Ch Jeonty Jyn A New Hope. A very mixed class of mature females all with different aspects to commend them. The bitch I found to be the most typical in breed type and proportions . She has substance yet retains femininity, best of outlines, ribs and strength to her loin. In the challenge for the BCC she was out moved by the younger bitch today, but nevertheless a worthy ResCC winner 2 Forbes’ Ch Jeonty Dreams a Dream with Karensbrae JW ShCEx, a quality animal through and through, handled to an advantage. She was presented in lovely coat. For me, not quite the balance of my principal winners but still a quality animal 3 George’s Romainville Rocks The Ritz
