GLEN OF IMAAL JUDGE WELKS 23

Appreciated both the full turn out and the quality.

JD (1)

1 George’s Romainville Rock On Ronnie; wheaten; turning 16m during the show; scored both in breed type & structure; positive attitude once into his stride & accepting the noise & shadows of the indoor conditions; gd head proportions with defined stop & ex eyes, set well apart; has taper w/o losing strength of foreface; gd bite; moulded front with gd bone & feet; decent neck & forehand; has depth with correct bodylength with slightly rising topline & well angulated rear; his gd backend provided drive; was clearly not in coat, so lacked the required texture, but that is surely transient; he is a teenager of obvious potential & character, enabling me to “get my eye in”; BD

JB (1)

1 George’s Romainville Classy N Sassy; wheaten litter sister to Rock On Ronnie, albeit it was the same nature, and state, of her coat that rather gave the game away; gd in eye & ear; taper to muzzle from a well-defined stop down to her blk nose; well ribbed body correctly slightly longer than high; oval chest with front moulded around it; gamely spirited & so carried herself both well & true, benefitting from a well angulated rear; she & her brother make quite the brace & ready to progress together RBB

PGB (1)

1 Griffiths’ Amhard Ruby Icon; 20m described as “blue brindle” & coat had the desired texture & length; appealed in head with well spaced, round, eye & small, well set, ear; rather weak in front, notably at pastern; well ribbed with desired slight body length, as against her height, with just enough rise; scored in accurate, driving, rear action with strongly rooted, well set & carried tail.

OB (3)

1 O’grady’s Amhard Quick Sand; wheaten; just turned 4yrs; loved everything about her; feminine of medium size but with strength of form & an immediate impression of breed functionality, hence gd bite & teeth; ticked all the breed specific boxes; desired 3:5 head proportions with well defined stop & taper; gd in eye & ear; strong neck; desired width through chest; moulded front; rising topline; muscled, angulated, sound rear with compact feet; engaging character that showed in her carriage; learned later she has been lightly shown, that she does work & that she took a CC from Stuart Plane, no less; the other two should follow in this form. BB & BOB

2 Campen’s Ch Romainville Rock’n Rolla at Coedrhosyn; 5yr 3m wheaten at the red end of the shade & with harsh top coat; half- sister of the above; so much to admire & fully commensurate with her being a title holder; lovely head with enviable foreface; scores in eye & ear; ex conformation; has depth; rising topline to strong loin; coat well tidied to advantage; free moving with plenty of drive & activity; in addressing the “maximum substance” for size, I found her heavy in build today that consequently shortened up her neck.

3 George’s Romainville China Blue
