Critiques
The Hungarian W/h Vizsla Association held an open show where BIS was Sh Ch Ragnolds Fantastic Mr Fox to Tragus; RBIS, Herlinga Herleva; BP, Herlinga Zaffron to Zilvarson.
PD Two promising youngsters.
1 Howard’s Lanokk Szivos, pleasing youngster, typy head, eye yet to darken. Muzzle to skull proportions correct with enough furnishings. Strong straight legs, shorter cast, coat correct throughout. Needs to grow into back legs. Moved steady;
2 Mitchell’s Herlinga Auden, good balanced picture when settled. Bit bum high at the moment. Head pleasing, liked length of rib. Unsettled on the move.
JD
1 Spillane& Salisbury’s Bellatar Hercules, bigger made but balanced construction. Correct head & expression, correct coat, strong neck flowing into good topline held well on the move. Good depth of brisket, well tucked in elbow, moved steady & true;
2 Godfrey’s Tragus Fire King, flashy type, liked conformation, head correct with no coarseness. Tail set high which spoilt picture on the move. Good front extension, free mover.
GD
1 T Fire King;
2 Howard’s Zoldmali U R Special, smaller made, good feel to coat, darker in colour. Front make up OK, topline lacking with high tailset, decent sweep of stifle. Unsettled on the move.
PGD
1 Stephenson’s Leiborschy Lincoln of Fryerfold,
2 years young, pleasing young man in all areas. Enjoying his day out. Loved his head in proportion, eye, expression & furnishings. Well boned, balanced outline. Feet could be better.
LD Diverse type here.
1 B Hercules, won here for overall quality& balance. Found expression a tad harsh. Correct coat, balanced fore & aft, moved with extension & drive;
2 McLeish’s Cwsscwn Cadiz, completely different in many ways to 1. Best of heads on this chap, heavier in frame with longer pale coat, well muscled which showed in his free movement, shown in good condition.
OD
1 Upton’s Sh Ch Ragnolds Fantastic Mr Fox to Tragus, judged this chap as a puppy & was delighted to see he lived up to his promise. Head in profile superb, correct in length of muzzle to skull with intelligent expression, strong arched neck into well laid shoulders, sufficient bone, well ribbed body, gentle sweep of stifle led into strong hocks, presented in good condition. Ate up the ring with his free flowing movement. BD, BIS;
2 Harper’s Pitswarren Sirocco, close up to 1. Masculine dog, laid down in muscled condition, pleasing head, correct coat, good depth to brisket with well tucked in elbow, moved with purpose. RBD.
PB Two pretty ladies.
1 Pike’s Herlinga Zaffron to Zilvarson, lovely young lady, very feminine, liked body proportions & length, head sweet with good expression, good feel to coat. Ticked all the boxes. BP;
2 Wand’s Herlinga Hulda With Aswann, sister to 1, many of the same comments apply. Again correct head, although muzzle a tad longer. Not just as together as 1 at the moment. I am sure will change places often.
JB
1 Newman’s Morganna Cosmopolitan, liked this one, no frills, honest bitch who fits the Standard. Liked her size, build, strong slightly arched neck, level back, darker in colour but good feel to coat, sufficient furnishings, balanced picture on the move;
2 Richardson’s Tragus Apricot Beauty of Carlequin, another of correct size, sufficient bone, different coat to 1. Head pleasing with lively expression. Handler couldn’t quite get the best out of her. Moved alright.
GB
1 M Cosmopolitan;
2 T Apricot Beauty of C.
PGB
1 Bendikas’ Morganna Hotspice, full of nonsense, pity, couldn’t really assess as refused to play the game today. Shame as profile on the stand good, head, neck, feet correct, coat acceptable. Moved well in profile with good drive.
LB
1 Holman’s Silvanus Modesty Blaze, fitted the Standard well. Liked length to height ratio, gentle sweet expression on good head with slightly rounded skull, correct bone & feet, well ribbed back, good feel & look to coat. On the move true coming & going, in profile had extension & drive.
OB Super class to judge.
1 Wand & Rickman’s Herlinga Herleva, not the flashiest of ladies but exactly what I was looking for. Point for point this bitch is what the Standard asks for with no exaggerations. Shown in hard condition, pleasing head, balanced body fore & aft, very true on the move, free striding gait. BB, RBIS;
2 Reed’s Sh Ch Cuffnells Sweet Violet, best head of the day. Liked her size & substance, darker coat with correct texture, flashy outline on the move. She had an untypical gait which I found disappointing. Quality bitch nonetheless. RBB.
