2ndHipkiss ERIKACHEN O'RUADH FOR DELTANDAMBA JW SHCM SHCEX
This NSDTR pushed the winner hard but was not quite as free on the move as my winner. Another dog in excellent condition with a gleaming coat and plenty of muscle, such a joy to find. Correct in head with a bright, alert eye and well set ear. Plenty of well sprung ribs under a strong topline. Moved true but I got the impression he was not as comfortable on the unusual surface today.
