Firstly I would like to thank the Committee for inviting me to judge this prestigious event at this lovely venue. We were blessed with wonderful weather, so thatW the breed could be seen at their best outside in the glorious sunshine. I feel the breed has come on in leaps & bounds over the last couple of years & I am delighted to report I saw not one bad mouth or temperament. Secondly I apologize for the lateness of my report due to personal commitments. I had an excellent entry of quality d’s considering Richmond Ch Show was held on the same day & every d, even if it stood alone in its class, thoroughly deserved its prize

MPD (3). 1 Sutton’s Leiborcschy Elek. 8 months old p, hope he doesn’t grow on any more. Beautiful coat & colour, excellent head shape & ear set. Good mouth, moved v well, well angulated fore & aft; 2 Lincoln’s Moricroft Maguey. 7 months old p. v similar to 1st in class, lovely head & expression, eyes need to darken, which I am sure they will with age. Good foreface, excellent feet, moved well, good mouth, sired I see by my BIS winner; 3 Spencer’s Ragnolds Rufus. All the p’s were v exuberant, as you would expect at this age, so it took a while to get them to settle.

PD 1 Parry’s Leiborschy Wilfek. Alone in this class, 8 mnths old p. with great presence, excellent angulation fore & aft, good forechest. Good coat & colour in excellent condition, good head & expression, nice tight feet, correct mouth. Moved v well, v mature p for his age, had no hesitation in awarding him BPIS.

JD 1 Lowthers Travaillant Moses. Again alone in this class, lovely d, just 2 days over 1 yr old, correct mouth, good coat & colour, excellent head & expression, good ear set. Nicely angulated fore & aft, nice tight feet, lovely forechest, well dropped in brisket, moved round the ring really well. Had no hesitation in leaving him in for final four for BIS.

ND (3). 1 Bebbington’s Zoldmali Dukat At Gonegos. 21 mnths old gold coloured d with the true Vizsla expression, excellent earset, as Sheila Gray one wrote in one of her articles, ëthe ears when used correctly resemble an African elephant charging V. Correct mouth, nice tight feet, good eye colour, could do with slightly more forechest. Has a full tail, but this did not detract from his excellent outline. Moved around the ring as though he was floating on air. Had no hesitation in awarding him RBD & RBIS; 2 Herberts Ayita Independence Day. 19 mnth old d of completely different type to 1. Needs to drop in brisket, paler in colour, correct mouth, could do with more bend of stifle, nice head & expression & correct mouth; 3 Palmer & Avery’s Kenmilquin Nereus.

PGD (4). 1 Walker’s Bayside Brook. 2 yr old d, correct size, beautiful coat & colour, shown to perfection. Lovely eye colour, excellent head planes & parallels, correct mouth, moved beautifully both in profile & fore & aft. Correct angulations, to be hyper-critical, for my taste he was just a trifle feminine: 2 Skinner & Skinner’s Leiborschy Ido Of Vorosarkary. 20 mnth old d, excellent jacket, good forechest, well angulated fore & aft, a trifle on the tall side. Correct mouth, correct Vizsla head with good stop, plenty of furnishing without being overdone. Moved well, overall a pleasing d to look at; 3 Thompson’s Moricroft Mojito.

LD (2). 1 Brier’s Leiborschy Melek. 20 mnths old d, lovely harsh jacket, well angulated fore & aft, correct mouth, good forechest, lovely eye colour Moved round the ring with a real ground covering gait. However, fore & aft he was slightly close behind & toed in a bit coming towards me. Overall another good specimen; 2 Herberts I Day.

OD (4). 1, BIS, Caines Kenmillone Chimbot. 5 yr old d. He strode into the ring as if he owned it & just said “Look at me I’m the best”, & he was, a real stallion of a d, with everything in the right place, maybe a tad too tall for some, but has everything about him to like, excellent colour, condition & wiry coat, beautiful head & expression, well anqulated fore & aft. Moved round the ring as though he owned it, correct mouth. Should be an asset to the breed as a stud, as he also has plenty of working ability; 2 Bebbington’s Zachary Des Champs Des Dune At Goregos. 6 yr old d. One I have always like, although a trifle on the dark side for my taste. Correct mouth, lovely coat, excellent tight feet, moved really well. He has a correct length of croup, but just a slight kink in his tail, this is not due to a high tailset however. Well angulated fore & aft, with good forechest, unlucky to have come up against the winner today, 3 Guest’s Bardontop Rochester.

MPB (2). 1 Caines Moricroft Mimosa. 7 mnths old b sired by my BIS, lovely temperament, good type, excellent angulation, fore & aft, moved v well, correct mouth, needs to tighten up everywhere but is still v immature. Good forechest for such a youngster, nice tight feet, overall a v pleasing specimen.

JB 1 Collin’s Throstlenest Kyla. Lovely b, just a few days out of p, superb on the move, excellent topline in profile & looked sound fore & aft. Correct mouth & angulations, lovely coat & colour, good head, would prefer more stop which I’m sure will develop with age. Altogether a v pleasing specimen.

NB 1 Mistykara Travaillant. 2 yr old b, of excellent type, in beautiful condition. Good head & expression, lovely tight feet, good bone, v feminine b, without being ëneedy, excellent angulations fore & aft. Lovely coat & colour, outstanding on the move. Correct mouth & fantastic outline, had no hesitation in awarding her RBB.

PGB (3). 1 Summerfields Ayita Wedding Day. 19 mnth old b, beautiful head & expression, excellent movement, correct mouth, good furnishings, excellent harsh jacket, tight feet, good forechest, correct colour, gold & not too dark; 2 Woolridges Moricroft Molise. 20 mnth old b, slightly heavier built than 1 & a bit more ëdoggy’ in head. However, a pleasing b to go over, correct mouth, lovely ear set, nice tight feet, good depth of brisket, excellent angulations, moved well with good drive; 3 Dempster’s Moricroft Moonshine,

LB (5). 1 Schofield & Morgan’s Silvanus Moll Flanders. 3 yr old b with excellent wire coat, v pretty correct feminine head, one of the best forechests I’ve seen. Shown to perfection, carrying slightly more weight than I normally like to see. Constructed completely correctly, good mouth. Excellent angulations, moved well in profile & fore & aft. Overall a v pleasing picture; 2 Parry’s Leiborschy Lajka. 3 yr old b with excellent coat. Correct mouth, excellent angulations, slightly plainer in head than 1, lovely dark eye, correct forechest, tight feet, moved beautifully, both in profile & fore & aft. Again a v pleasing specimen; 3 Thompson’s Moricroft Mata Hari. This was a trio of really beautiful b’s & I had some difficult decisions to make all in all it was v close.

OB 1 Thompson’s Bareve Sandpiper Over Moricroft. 6 yr old b, dark red & with excellent jacket, good bone, excellent hindquarters, & also well angulated on the front, correct bite, nice dark eye to match her coat, moved well, both in profile & fore & aft Overall a v pleasing specimen; 2 Parry’s Leiborschy Yendah. Almost 3 yrs old, a v beautiful b, think that these two could change places anytime. Again excellent topline, v well shown. Lovely tight wire jacket, good angulations, fore & aft, correct mouth, excellent temperament, lovely head & expression, good forechest, nice tight feet, looked stunning on the move; 3 Schofield & Morgan’s Silvanus Ezmi. Again these three completed a trio of really stunning b’s.

VD/B 1 Guest’s Silvanus Queen Victoria Ruling Bardantop, BBIS. A totally magnificent b that completely belies her age of nearly 8. In excellent condition, beautiful head & expression, correct mouth, lovely jacket, beautiful colour, moved really well in profile & fore & aft. Excellent angulations & forechest. Tight feet, correct mouth, lovely dark eye, a b that is v difficult to find fault with; 2 Dempster’s Moricroft Moffat. 10 and a half yr old d, another that doesn’t look nearly his age. Good forehand, correct dentition, nice harsh coat, slight tendency to hunch his topline in profile on the move, but overall still a v nice specimen.

BEGINNERS D/B (3). 1 Herberts A I Day; 2 Palmer & Avery’s K Nereus.

SPECIAL WORKING TEST D/B (5). 1 Guest’s Silvanus Queen Victoria Ruling Bardantop; 2 Bebbington’s Gonegos Sarika. 3 yr old b, one I have always liked, unlucky to meet the winner, again a stunning russet gold b with lovely forehand & bend of stifle, correct mouth, lovely head & expression, looked good on the move. Lovely tight feet, again v difficult to fault; 3 Guest’s Bandantop Rochester.

FIELD TRIAL D/B 1 Caines Kenmilone Chimbola.

BRACE (2). 1 Bebbington’s Zachary Des Champs Des Dune At Gonegos & Gonegos Sarika. Father & daughter, alike as two peas in a pod. Moved round the ring beautifully in unison, & looked as fit as fleas & fantastically workmanlike.

NOT BRED BY EXHIBITOR: D/B (6). 1 Caines’ K Chimbola; 2 Summerfield’s A W Day: 3 Caine’s M Mimosa.
