Thanks to the committee of Southern Counties & to exhibitors for making this a very enjoyable day. Some of the exhibits were obviously feeling the effects of the heat & on another day some of the placings would have been different. However, I was very pleased with my winners who kept showing to the end.
PD (2) 1 Bugg’s Komargo Dandy Warhol, 10 months cream, lovely head, good eye shape & excellent pigment, short in body, good tailset & carriage. Would like a little more leg to complete picture. Unsettled on move, but when moving was OK. BP; 2 Allington’s Rexford Coyote Kid, 10 months, but black. Smaller made than 1. Nice body shape, typical expression. Unhappy on table. Sharp brisk movement. JD (2) 1 Powell’s Bahram Hiawatha at Brookwell, black, top size, good coat, good tailset, excellent showman, made best of himself, steady mover, good head & expression, well set ears of correct shape & size; 2 Allington’s Rexford Voodoo Warrior, 10 months black whose size I liked. Throwing coat right now. Intensely lively & alert, moved well, lovely picture standing. Not confident being handled on table. PGD (0). LD (4) 1 Bayliss’ Karmajen Star Trooper, cream, took my eye immediately, excellent, masculine head, correct eye & ear shape, good pigment, short in body with correct leg length for balance, super outline, moved out steadily & didn’t stop showing. CC, his first; 2 Fellows’ Avidore History Maker at Blackshuck, tailed black, so much to like, as with 1 lovely body shape & moved out well, good head with nice eye shape. Ears could be little neater.

OD (3) 1 Reed’s Byquy Polar Prince, cream with tail, beautiful head, correct eye & ear shape, excellent pigment. Would just like tad more leg length to finish picture.
