Judges comments on class:

Overall very good class.

1. Hen – lovely bird who showed all though judging. Lovely outline – light suffusion, nice length
2. Hen – very nice same as first hen – good outline – good head feather – showed well – good solder
3. Nice overall cock – showed well at times but not the impact as the hens.

5th placed hen we liked but won’t stage.

Judges comments (recorded by Carol Gough):

It was a pleasure to judge this class as there are some very nice birds in the top row.
First two birds are lovely birds. The first placed bird showed all through the judging and didn’t put a foot wrong. It just sat there and said pick me. It has a beautiful outline with lovely length, it has a little bit of suffusion but it didn’t affect it enough to be beaten. Second is a strong hen with good outline and nice head features, showed well with good shoulder. The third placed cock although a very nice bird was unlucky to come up against two strong hens. Very nice overall bird who showed well at times. Probably a little flat on the top of the head and lacks impact when compared to the hens. Fifth placed bird would not perch. Overall first 7 to 8 birds are very strong and then they tailed off.
