What a cracking deep red dog of strength and balanced size. Good pigmentation. He's at the upper end of the standard but presents a picture of quality. His head and skull are of good size with definition and good proportion. Plenty of strength here but no excessive flesh, he's very clean with a lovely side on head profile. Distinct stop, deep through in muzzle, not too short, strong underjaw. Correct bite. He has a lovely expression, well set dark eyes and ears which he used well. Front assembly is powerful from good shoulder and straight front with strength of bone and good feet. Plenty of width to his chest and a good forechest. Strong neck into defined withers across to strong topline and shapely well covered loin and muscular hindquarters. correct depth to his brisket and well sprung rib. He had a good body covering which was muscular and firm. Nice clean tuck up to his loin. Pleasing bend to his stifle and powerful rear. when he moved it was evident he had power and drive and he didn't let his handler down, Striding out well. Shown and presented very well. Excellent physical condition and cracking coat. Competed strongly in the final line up.
