Breed critique -
Howgate & Hull's, Palmik King Of Clubs JW, at 16 months, an incredibly handsome and elegant boy with a lovely gentle persona who gave me goose bumps when going around the ring. Correct long and lean head with a wonderful expression leading down to a strong and elegant arched neck with well-placed shoulders and nice strong fore-quarters, nice deep brisket. Steady flowing top line with a nice gentle slope at the backend with a good tail set and correct length of tail. Correct bend in stifle. This boy excelled on the move and just glided around the ring with ease and so elegantly with plenty of reach and drive, true coming and going. BD then BOB and then a pleasure to watch him go onto to get Best In Show.

BIS Whippet - Howgate & Hull's -Palmik King of Clubs JW
Aptly named, he is royalty! Super balanced youngster excels in head, eye and ear placement. Correct shoulder & upper arm, good depth of chest & ribs well sprung, he has strength of loin & well-set quarters. A lovely reach going forward and drives well, poetry in motion. I am sure he will have top honours very soon, a star in the making
