Class 11 - Judges Critique:

1st: Bulwaren Knls‘ - Bultusker the Phantom (Award of Excellence)

A really handsome mature male, beautiful head and expression, really nice proportion of short muzzle to back skull. Beautiful pigment and clear fawn coloring. Really nicely balanced body, correctly angulated front and rear, beautiful moving. Only thing I would like to like in this dog is a darker eye.

2nd: Gooding’s - Aust. CH Treebrook Raywood (Award of Excellence)

A really handsome fawn, with a beautiful head and expression. He was not quite as mature as the first place dog, like him, he had orange eyes. But overall he had really nice balance, ring presence, and is a very handsome animal.

For third, I was torn between the dog I ended up placing third and the fourth place dog.

3rd: Magurren’s - Bultusker Guardiano (Award of Excellence)

A clear red with a handsome head. His front movement is loose and he almost has too much bone and substance for a Bullmastiff. I would bet that he is over the standard weightwise. The red dog that ended up with the fourth placement I think had more correct bone and substance and a very nice head, he just had surgery and a lot of hair was shaved from his rib cage.

Class 11a - Judges critique:

1st: Kingsestate Knls’ - Lilacglen Red Velvet (Award of Excellence)

A very pretty red fawn, really nice blocky head, nice dark eyes. She has a nice top line; if anything she needs a little more size and substance which might come with age.

2nd: Sellars’ - Aust. CH Oldworld Shady Lady (Award of Excellence)

Two toned fawn, more substance and bone than the first place bitch but not quite as nicely balanced and fit as the first place girl. This bitch also had a lovely head and expression but needs a darker eye.

3rd: Bullmaster Knls’ - Aust. CH Bullmaster Sweet Success (Award of Excellence)

Nice square fawn girl with a beautiful head and expression and lovely bone, not quite as strong a top line as the two in front of her. I think there were other places she'd rather be than the show ring, she sort of died at the end but she is definitely the type and style bitch I'd be happy to own.
