Breed Notes
24th February 2023

Yorkshire Collie held a quite well supported Open show last weekend with an entry of 48 for Judge Stefani Flower (Serenlas) taking centre stage starting at 11am. The venue was at Thorpe Willoughby Village Hall and the other judges included, Richard Kinsey (Kitarn) for Smooths and Gill Whitaker (Siluto) doing the SAC classes. Sue Randall (Ladnar) was listed for BIS.
The first class of the day was Spl Beginners Dog or Bitch and winning this was Uffspring Ultravox for Coloratura.  The male entry of 15 with 2 absent resulted in Veteran Dog which was won by Wicani Altitude at Imaginist for Di Collino. Corydon The Baron was alone in PD and also won Maiden for Miranda. Winning Puppy was Classic Scots Patrick Swayze (Imp Deu) for Angela & Keith Harvey. Graduate went to Brenda Welsh and Thistlewing Smoky Quarts. Although 3rd in Veteran, Barrenclough Diamond Skies won PG as the only entrant for Jackie Dix. Limit went to Wicani Invoking Spirit for Angela and Keith with Miranda Blake and Corydon Pol Roger taking Open.
 I understand that all awards were to be completed after all judging is over, so the ladies followed with Karafaye Black Beauty taking Veteran for Lorraine Quince, MP went to Lene Newman and her Ingledene Crystal Vision of Phreelancer. Puppy, Junior and Maiden went to Miranda and Corydon Agatha Cristal. Another Ingledene, Sno Dream of Thistlewing won Graduate for Brenda Welsh.  PG was Thistlewing Celtic Soul for Karafaye and Lorraine. Limit went to Mejola Physical Attraction and Jo White with Open going to Lene and Phreelancer Phormal Dress.
Best Dog went to Thistlewing Smokey Quarts and Brenda Welsh, RBD to Wicani Invoking Spirit and Angela. Corydon The Baron took BPD. Wicani Altitutude at Imaginist and Di Collino were BVD.  Best Bitch was Phreelancer Phormal Dress, RBB to Thistlewing Celtic Soul for Karafaye and Brenda. BPB to Miranda and Cristal with BVB to Karafaye Black Beauty.
In the final results, kindly sent by Jo White, BOB Rough went to Lene and her Phreelancer Phormal Dress, (Ch Corydon The Ringleader ex Phreelancer Phaith Hill) BOS Rough to Thistlewing Smokey Quarts (Karafaye Scotch Blend at Thistlewing ex Thistlewing Spell On You);  BPIB and BMPIB – Corydon The Baron (Ch Corydon Trump The Lot ex Mejola Famous Attraction for Corydon); BVIB Wicani Altitude at Imaginist (Wicani Poetry and Prose Wicani Petticoats A’Flyin)
At the end of the day, BIS was the Rough Bitch, RBIS to the smooth Koczkodan Serenity who was also BOSIS. BPIS and BMPIS was another smooth, Breckamore Believe It Or Not. BOSPIS was the rough and BVIS also went to the rough
Apologies, as at the time of writing I do not have the results of the SAC Classes judged by Gill Whittaker.
