1 Horsman and Horsman-Phoenix Snow Legend Zenith of Fame Nordicwinds (Imp Rus) JW. A young dog of good type, plenty of size and substance excellent head with well placed ears of good shape Clean almond eyes correctly set giving a good expression. Well arched feet. Strong body for a young lad and I am sure he will mature into an excellent dog. Thick coat in good condition. Sloping topline leading to a well set and carried tail. Well balanced dog with good angulation front and rear. Moved well.
2 Ellis-Payne Chayo Spellbinder. Another lovely young dog, just out of puppy, but think he had left his brain in the puppy classes. He really made his handler earn her keep today. At the moment he is a raw youngster but has all the attributes of becoming a dog of excellent type. Strong head with well placed ears and well set eyes, giving a lovely expression. Coat in good condition. Nice arch of neck leading to correct sloping topline and a well carried tail. Not as settled on the move as he was being a handul.
