MANCHESTER CH SHOW 2010

Manchester Terriers

PD (1) 1 Dunford & Akrigg’s Quixol Alexander, just 9 months but in spanking form & quite full of himself, head of good length & flat cheeked, neat ears, excellent reach of neck & decent ribcage. A little flat in topline & although his hind action is true going away, he becomes a little too full of himself head on & lifts his front feet. Hopefully he will settle. JD (2) A. PGD (2,1a) 1 RBD, Symington’s Quixol Havoc, nice size, lovely rich colours & in gleaming condition, head fairly long, good dark well shaped eyes, correct mouth, enough neck & ribs to the elbow. Loin lacks definition which lessens the appeal of his outline & although his side action shows drive & balance, his pasterns are a bit loose when fore viewed. OD (2,1) 1 BOB, Leigh’s Sophyla Sorcerer of Mansiya, certainly compact fellow, really good head, scoring well in eyes & ears which are so neat, well bodied, excellent ribcage, in immaculate condition. Although would like a little more bend of stifle, his action was true & he kept his shape so well in profile. Would be deserving of a title.

PB (2,1) 1 BB & BP, Leigh’s Mansiya Cosmopolitan, nice for size & well coloured, carrying a little too much condition but she is a good size & fairly compact. Pleasing head. Ears are unsettled but her positive action won the day. JB (2,1) 1 RBB, Carter’s Mansiya Wiccan Moon over Afilador, another having ear troubles & hers were not quite sure what to do. Nice for size, super reach of neck, rib to the elbow, colours were well defined. Not quite so settled when moving as yet. JB, PGB & OB (0).
