I would like to thank the Committee for offering me this appointment, I was honoured to be given this opportunity. Thank you also to my stewards for all their hard work keeping the show running as smoothly as possible, for which I was very grateful. There were some lovely dogs present but front movement and lack of correct length and angulation of the upper arm continues to be a problem in some exhibits as well as size and correct coat . We should not forget the first line in the breed standard “essentially a working terrier”.

Two lovely balanced exhibits topped this class, both look capable of doing what they were bred for – a difficult decision to make!
1st - Earthtaw Making Magic with Clipstone (Mrs E & Mrs J Jackson)
racy, elegant, light grizzle with a lovely otter head, dark eyes with a keen expression. Narrow, straight front with good legs and neat feet; lovely neck into well laid shoulders, nice length of ribs giving a good underline and easily spanned; correct angulation front and rear. In short double coat (just enough to feel the texture of the topcoat) and a thick loose pelt. Excellent movement with a free, easy stride with good reach in front and super drive from the hindquarters, keeping a beautiful level topline. Pleased to award her the BCC (her 3rd I understand – congratulations).
2nd - Smalesmouth Cadence (Mrs J Roberts)
another racy, elegant grizzle with a good otter head, dark eyes with keen expression. Very similar in make and shape to the winner and similar remarks apply. Narrow throughout, easily spanned, double coat and thick, loose pelt. Moved very well with a good stride. Thought she would be the RBCC winner but, unfortunately, I think the extreme heat affected her in the challenge.
