Long strong neck flowed into a well constructed front with forechest. Well off for bone and tidy feet. Slightly heavy on the underline but a gently sloping croup. She wasn't being terribly co-operative with her handler but her place was won as she was the soundest mover in the class, which was generally disappointing for movement on the up and back." |

"This bitch was the best all round in terms of conformation and movement in this class. There is nothing particularly flashy about her, she's a good honest hound. A very sweet head, pleasing eye and excellent tight ears. Has a very well set front with good forechest. Well boned, straight limbed and has tidy feet. Nicely crested neck flowing smoothly into her topline which rose gently over the loin. Rear angulation not overdone in any way and she was sound and true in all directions on the move.
