First of all I hope I have got the Name of the Show correct?
Now I would like to thank Dave and Elainne for the Invitation to join them to Judge in Belgium, what a Brilliant Three Days I had and I really Enjoyed your Company, Thankyou. I would also like to Thank Martine for asking Dave to take me along and also for the Lovely Dinner she cooked on the Saturday night plus the meal she took us out for on the Friday when we arrived.This was my First visit to Belgium to Judge and was Pleasantly Surprised at how High the Standard was and even more about how Happy they all were. We were really looked after and to actually stay in the Hotel in the Grounds where the Show was held was really Spoiling us.The weather was warm and sunny in the morning and very wet in the afternoon bbut we still had a really Good Day. As I said earlier the Standard was really good and the Winners of each of the Classes are more than capable of holding their own in England, some already proving that and One in particular doing Really well in Ticket.
I started with Pre Beginners, then C and finished with B. Thankyou to the Stewards for there Assistance and also to the Stay Stewards and also for the Lovely array of Gifts at the end, Thankyou.
The Presentations are all carried out at the End of the Day, which gives you a chance to see everyone in the Line Ups from all of the Classes.
As for the Classes that I judged the Best on the Day were as follows:

PRE BEGINNERS
1st Davy Alliet and Dimka from Crazy Blue Weimaraner
This young man would more than hold his own in England, just need to hold his hand a little higher so as not to let the Dog keep touching it, therefore losing less marks, but overall a lovely round of work. That said they were in a Class of their own today and really worked well.There was very little to mark and his Confidence for a Young Man was lovely to see. I shall look forward to watching you both when you visit England next year, Well done and Good Luck.
2nd Ruth Haaze and Zoe of the Joyful Waters Boxer
Another lovely round by you both, only spoilt by the Present and Finish in R/C.I an sure that you will soon sort that out and when you do there will be no stopping you, Well Done.
3rd Julie Dewilde and Homer Home of Boycaras B/C
A Tight Lead and No Present on the R/C were Very Expensive today plus with You Stopping in the H/W it has to be marked, but that said you Really seem to Enjoy your Day so Good Luck and Well Done.
4th J Wesselius and Fennah of Infinite Dreams Labrador Retriever
This Team Finished the Round and Asked for the Marks to be Recorded, in England the Handler would have said Training Judge? But again they really had Fun and Enjoyed their Day, so again Well Done and Good Luck.

CLASS B
1st Gwen Griffioen and Tomngwens Chocolate Dream Kruising
This Team really worked a Lovely Round and Deserved this Win. Controlled and Accurate H/W, a bit of Hanging on in R/T and a Slow Drop in S/A but Overall a Pleasure to Judge, and also doing well over Here as well, so Well Done and Good Luck.
2nd Marianne Van der Ster and Amazing Yoda B/C
Another Team with very little to Mark in H/W, Accurate S/A but a messy Pick up in R/T. Finished with a Clear Scent. Well Done.
3rd Gino Dewitte and My Sweet Devils Eye Encke B/C
This Team would have Won had it not been for the Stopping on the S/A. There was very little to mark in the H/W and finished with a Good Scent. Well Done.
4th Cees Groen and Nice of You to Come Bye Keen Kite B/C
Another Team who could have finished higher if they had Dropped on Command in the S/A.Nothing much to mark in H/W and Scent but a Slow Return in R/T was Expensive. Good Luck.
5th Elly Kooijman and Round Robin Ghalib B/C
Would have been Third but unfortunately Failed Scent. Bits and Pieces in H/W but nothing major so Well Done and Good Luck.
6th Davey Alliet and Fouzywouzy from Imkes Friends B/C
Won the Pre Beg and then worked His Trainers Dog and was not put off at all. Gave Extra Commands when needed and really had a Good Time. Well Done Davey.

Class C
1st Annelies van de Velde and Twinkles Laddy Boy W/S
What a Lovely Round of Work.Accurate H/W, Fast S/A, Clear D/C and R/T and a Perfect Scent. What more could you ask for? Very Well Done and Good Luck.
2nd Guus Scholten and Colliewood Velazquez Giovanni W/S
Would have Won if Guus had have done what the Steward had told him to do. A very Accurate Round of Obedience and also doing Extremely well in Ticket in England. Guus I shall follow with Great Interest and hope to be there when you Win your Ticket? Lots of Luck.
3rd
Mia Bosschaart and Mamamias Tyke W/S
Overall another lovely Round of Teamwork, spoilt by Missing the Down in the ASSD, but apart from that nothing much to fault, Well Done.
4th Steven Vannieuwenhuyse and Bytchek Esquire B/C
Lovely H/W, D/C and R/T but very costly Dev and Pos in the S/A cost this Team a Higher Place. H/W was lovely to watch. Well Done.
5th Pleun Van der Ster and ThisisBlizz
Yet another Good Round of H/W spoilt only by the Turns in Fast Pace carried out too Slow? A missed D/C Position was also costly but finished with a Good Scent.Well Done.
6th Tiny Bouchaut and Twinkles Kathmick W/S
Crabbing in Fast and Slow Pace and a Missed Position in ASSD and then the Handler Stopping in the H/W took a lot of Marks away. But some of the H/W was really good so keep training and work on the minor faults. Good Luck.
Once Again a Big Thankyou to Martine, Dave and Elainne and look forward to meeting up with you all again hopefully one day. Remember to Enjoy our Sport and your Partners and to have FUN.
Colin Wright.
