1. Gallett Cyres The Master 22 months male who’s colour is showing, nice long lean head with good expression and ears, nice shape and type but needs a little more time to go further which is quite possible. Moved Ok but will benefit from a little more show training. brother to my bitch RCC winner
2. Crowley Gaelachgorm Coolsallagh 7 years old which surprised me when the owner told me as it might account for a lot of what I thought about the dog first he was much to big for my not just in height but in head as well, he has a good coat colour and coat type is OK
LD
1. Munro Arkama Big Time, 23 months old, shown and handled by his well known breeder and as usual put down in excellent condition and presentation, good for size with excellent coat type and colour, long lean head with well used ears good dark eye and the required wicked expression, good long neck excellent bone and substance firm level topline, excellent for depth and width of chest and good tailset, good front and rear and moved very well. Well deserved RCC and should become a Ch
2. Pinfold Cyres Master Craftsman, 20 months old, slightly smaller but good size and height just needs time to finish, presented and handled very well, long lean head good neck colour just showing nice body and substance, good topline and tailset . could make up if he continues to develop well, brother to my bitch RCC winner
OD
1. Baine Stormblu Aristocrat, 2.5 years old who entered the ring with that real Kerry blue style and dominance, showing outstanding and good terrier spirit, it was a joy to watch him nose to nose with the others in the class not showing aggression but quietly confidence and strong. My type of male and good for size, walked and owned the ring, trimmed and presented to perfection with a correct coat and very good colour, long lean head with wicked expression with well used ears and dark eye, long strong and well arched neck flowing into a firm topline and well set and well used tailset, excellent for bone and substance, good depth and width of chest, very good angulations front and rear and moved and well shown and handled expertly, I would thank this owner travelling all the way from Ireland which I am sure he thought worth it when he won CC and BOB I understand this makes him into a Ch today and well deserved.
2. Carvey and Davani Arkama Pinball Wizard at Philwyre 4 years old male very classic male of a type and style I would expect from this top kennels moved and shown well from his sporting owner, the dogs was maybe a little jaded from showing or maybe tired today, present in top condition and well trimmed to advantage, excellent head with good ears, I later found out he is waiting for his 3 cc and has a string on RCC I hope he gets his third he deserves to be a Ch
3. Nagle Colinca’s Bold Pioneer, with these three males and the other males I hope it shows good time and big wins for kerries as the numbers may have been small in male but the quality was excellent
MPB
1. Bradley Rimbert Queen Padme 7 months old female who was new to me and I thought the same of the handler till I was told later. I have to say a top quality and high potential young female and my type of bitch correct size with strength and elegance, really used her ears to show of her strong lean but elegant head with wicked expression and dark eyes. Long firm neck with good front angulations leading into a short but firm for age topline into a correct and well set tailset with good rear angulations, trimmed and presented excellently she showed for current age a very good type of coat, moved and handled very expertly. I must say I looked long and hard and thought about giving one of the top 2 awards but thought on reflection she was immature but had to argue with myself as I liked her so much, will make up easily if she continues this way. She won Best Puppy I know there was no male pups but if there was he would need to be special to beat this smashing prospect
2. Baxter Arkama It Girl 6 months female who needs more training with his owner, but a good prospect for the future well presented nice shape and size.
3. Crowley Arkama Ice Maiden
PB
1. Baxter Arkama It Girl, as above

1. Peacock Cranmoss Millie 3 years old bitch who have to say was well trimmed and present in good and firm condition, top size for me but still elegant, coat could be better type but colour was good nice shape and shown and handled well.
LB
1.Pinfold Cyres Glamourous 20 months old and my size and shape, top quality female present very well and trimmed to perfection, long head but a little heavy in head not a lot but some, excellent ears and dark eye, long firm neck moving into a short firm body, hard level topline and good tailset well handled and shown, movement could have been better in the challenge and on the day a well deserved RCC I see later her mum won a RCC under me last time and she became a Ch and I expect this lady to as well.
2. Earle and Kelly Dollagh Razzel Dazzel Em 2.5 years old needs more coat as it spoils the balance of the female pleasant head and body moved and handled well
OB
1. Munro IT INT EURO Ch Balboa Saturnia for Arkama 4 years old, this girl is on the top size for me and I do prefer smaller bitches but I can only judge the dogs presented before me, it is well know ( I think) my preference for size, but I will not knock a superior taller animal of a less quality but correct sized kerry, shown and presented as you would expect from this kennel and well know handler, coat of good type and correct colour, super head and well used ears to show the required terrier spirit, long well used and firm neck, good level topline which was firm standing and moving, well used and correct tailset, good angulations moved very well, won the CC which I was told later also made her into a CH today.
