My thanks go to my two brilliant stewards Pete Styles and Mary Ann Hodge who kept the ring flowing at all times which makes a big difference when there is another breed following on in the same ring. I would also like to thank the exhibitors for their sporting applause for each other which are not always heard around the ring these days. We eventually got started 30 minutes late in all rings because of the appalling rain and traffic queues but the rain did stop and the sun came out which turned it into a pleasant day. My principal winners were Mountstephens & Pullin’s Inuplats Quilt Henrik At Whitewalker (Imp Nor) Dog CC & BOB & G4. I am told this has made him a Champion and judging by the reaction of his handler, it defiantly has. Page & Sheehan’s. Cedarcreek Frozen River, RCC for their boy. Loades’s. Snowolf Blackpowder Chick. Bitch CC and the RBCC went to Rodger’s & Wheeler’s. Northspirit A Star Is Born. The BPIB went to Copley-Holland’s Katabatics Hollaback Girl. BVeteran was won by Cornah Wade & Cornah’s 11year old girl, Hawkam Last Chance, she also went on to win Veteran G4.

MPD. 2.
1st & BPD Cameron’s. Sutarka Fire Storm. 8mths. A nice looking boy who is correct in head, nice eyes and good ear carriage,I also liked his overall construction, he moved well most of the time but he did get a little distracted by dogs near the ring but his handler kept him in check so he could complete his task.
2nd. Raby’s.Yuayua at Icemoon (Imp). 8 mths. Another nice looking boy with the correct head and a decent body, a little shorter in leg than the first placed dog but there is plenty of time for development, he moved ok but not as cleanly as the winner.

JD. 1.
1st Ellis’s. Ice Gangsta’s Ball Of Fire For Chayo (Imp). 15 mths, A striking looking red boy who stood alone but well deserved his first prize. I liked him in profile and the way he flows out of his neck into a good top line, he moved out well and there was no problem with his gait, he looked good on the return and stood well for his handler.

GD. 3.
1st Brooks’s. Snobruk Secret Mission (al) JW. 23 mths. He has a nice head with good ear and eye placement, correct dentition and a good neck which runs well into his level top line. He moved well on his triangle but on the up and downs he was sliding so I ask the handler to do it again on the opposite side of the ring and this was much better with it being dryer and his movement was without faults and he also looked good on the stand in profile.
2nd. Ellis’s. Ice Gangsta’s Ball Of Fire For Chayo (Imp).(A repeat of JD)
3rd. Jelfs. Lapema Garota Rude JW.

PGD.6 (1abs).
1st.Winterburn’s. Cinnell Polar Force.18 mths. A boy with good leg length and correct shoulders, good neck flowing into correct top line. His head is clean and when I eventually got to see his dentition there are no problems there either. The conditions were very wet with the ring eventually drying out but I had to ask him to move again because I could not see his reach properly, on the second time of moving he was much better and deserved his win.
2nd.Woodall’s. Monikoona Ice Chief Brody. 2yrs. A well-constructed boy who looks good in the ring, I liked his overall construction and the way he moved, he just needs to polish up his act a bit and he will be taking first’s instead of seconds in my opinion.
3rd. Page & Jarvis’s. Cedarcreek Frozen Asset.

LD. 7.(1 abs).
1st & RCC. Page & Sheehan’s. Cedarcreek Frozen River. 2yrs. A very handsome boy shown in good coat and in top condition, correct throughout in head and a strong neck, excellent fore chest, good top line which he held on the move and was showing good reach. He couldn’t have done anymore to please and he well deserved his award. Another 12 to 18 mths or so and this boy will be pushing for the bigger honour.
2nd. Botterill’s. Cinnell Canadian Ace. 19 mths. He looks good for his age with a well-developed head and body. He is a strong boy who moved quite well and his gait was faultless, the more he moved the better he got and I feel he will do well in the future.
3rd. Butler’s. Kaytoo Antarctic Kuma.

1st & DCC and BOB & WG4. Mountstephens & Pullin’s. Inupiats Qulit Henrik At Whitewalker (Imp Nor). He looks the part in profile and he has a presence that drew me in to look at him longer than I normally do. He is very well put together with correct dentition and a pleasing expression, good ears, eyes, neck, topline, shoulders and he stood perfectly for me to check him over, his lines are so clean that they show his strong powerful body as he moves around the ring with ease on his well-muscled quarters, he was well handled and he deserved to be because he gave his handler his all. Well done on your Group 4 place.

She moved out well on her triangle and looking at her in gait I could see she has kept her level top line and she deserved her first place and I was pleased to hear she also won VG4.She is a credit to her owner who must have felt very proud of her.
