SETTER IRISH – BITCHES
MP (6,2) 1 Heron’s Caskeys Happy Hour, absolutely delightful, showing great
promise at only 6 and a half months old. Beautifully shaped head, lovely dark
eyes and raised brows giving that desired quizzical expression. Elegant neck,
super outline, excellent bone and feet, croup and quarters. At the moment
everything in its right place, and so perfectly handled. Best Puppy in full
agreement with my co-judge. 2 Howlett & Condron’s Siochanna Tiaquin Tirney,
another quality one, sweet head, arched neck, well bodied, good depth of
brisket, firm topline, moved well. 3 Penford’s Millcroft Moon Molly.
P (12,4) Super class – I loved the first four. So much quality in one class. 1
Chorley’s Outfoxed by Kerryfair, beautiful quality girl, won by virtue of her
gorgeous head and dark appealing eyes. Long neck going smoothly into good
shoulders, balanced outline, lovely coat and colour, well-sprung ribs, very
promising indeed. 2 Gisbey’s Balbriggan Ace of Hearts by Suteresett, close up to
1st. Spectacular in outline, sweet head, arched neck, good shoulders, in
beautiful bloom, closely followed by 3rd and 4th. 2 King’s Kirkavagh Primera.
J (20,2) Another good class. 1 Brown’s Shandwick Irresistable at Tifosi, 4th in
the super puppy class, just loved her overall balance and outline, Lovely head,
neck and shoulders, excelled in bone and feet and showed well throughout her 3
classes, despite the heat. 2 Ellis’s Brayville Love Affair, very classy and
superbly presented, so well balanced and elegant, feminine head, lovely arched
neck, good depth of brisket, excellent second thigh. 3 Watt’s Shenanagin
Shooting Star.
Y (13) 1 Brayville Love Affair. 2 Mugford’s Lynwood Theme Song, unplaced in
Junior but looking lovely in this class. Sweet head, good front and feet,
correct sloping topline, good stifles. 3 Hopewell’s Davset Little Eva.
N (17) 1 Townsend’s Follidown Water Lily, gorgeous headed girl, very happy and
cheeky, beautiful outline, lovely neck and shoulder, excellent quarters, plenty
of coat. So like her lovely mother who won the CC today. 2 Wiggen’s Brinara
Guilletta, elegant, upstanding girl, well-shaped head, good neck, topline and
quarters. Good bone and feet, smooth dark coat. 3 Shandwick Irresistable at
Tifosi.
G (13,3) 1 Douthwaite & Wharfe’s Gracewood True Magic JW, beautifully
proportioned bitch, feminine head, raised brows, lovely flowing topline from
head to tip of tail. Good bone and feet, excellent quarters. Won easily here. 2
Tulley’s Highclare Catchfly, flashy dark girl, good neck, well-sprung ribs, deep
brisket, good topline and movement. 3 Condron’s Covarney Miss ‘B’ Havin’.
PG (17,3) 1 King’s Kirkavagh Jumilla JW, gorgeous bitch in full bloom, nice
size, excellent in all departments, so well balanced and moved well, lovely
outline. 2 Gurney’s Danaway Demure, well named, this girl is not overdone in any
way, just so well put together. Good neck, firm topline, good bone and feet,
well-bent stifles. 3 Meadows & Ritchie’s Clonageera Rhapsody.
L (14,5) 1 Drinkwater’s Brabrook Red Rose JW. Stood out for her excellent
conformation, balance and outline. Lovely bone and feet, in beautiful bloom, so
well handled – had to win this super class and the res cc. 2 Williamson’s
Caskeys Vermilion at Bluesprings, different type to 1 but close up, lovely head,
good outline, well-off for bone, good quarters and moved well. I see her dam is
behind quite a few of today’s winners. 3 Milligan-Bott & Bott’s Thendara Miss
Dior.
O (11,3) 1 Townsend’s Sh.Ch. Follidown Red Hot Poker JW, this delightful bitch
had everything I was looking for – she is beautifully made all through, and the
icing on the cake – an exquisite head with the sweetest expression and delicious
raised brows. Lovely coat and colour and moved well. I was delighted to award
her the CC. In the challenge the very handsome dog had a bit more verve on the
move, but my co-judge and I agreed they made a lovely couple! 2 Gardner’s Int.Ch.
Carnbargus Contentment, this elegant bitch looks much younger than her 7 years
and shows her royal breeding. Beautifully made, so well balanced, lovely neck
and shoulders and topline, good front, well sprung ribs, sweet head. 3 Mugford’s
Lynwood Promises Promises to Gimaroch.
