Dr BRUCE BENNETT
My thanks to Isobel and the Committee for the invitation to
this happy Show on the banks of the Forth. Roz McKnight was my steward. I had a
most enjoyable day in her company and look forward to the next time we can work
together.
AC ORIENTAL CHAMPION
FEMALE.
1. GR CC LINTON’S
SHADOWSQUAD STARDUST. F. (37k). 3yrs 9mths.
Very elegant lady with a long wedge, terrific topline
comprising broadly spaced, large, widely flaring ears, eyes of oriental shape
and tilt, olive green, gently angled profile, pleasing depth of muzzle, chin
lining up and level bite. There was a hint of asymmetry today at the maxillary
(cheekbone) level, the right seeming just a little more prominent than the
left, definitely not present on our previous encounters; the veterinarian
agreed with the observation but could detect no sign of illness, so we agreed that it was probably due to
some temporary phenomenon and I learned later that she had sustained a minor
injury recently. Body firm and mature now, slender limbs, neat paws, balancing
tail. Close lying coat of deep blue, well mingled with cream shades.
2. Res Gr CC.HAMILTON’S ADVESH WISTFUL
WILLOW. F. (37g) 2yrs 4mths.
Pleasing lady of good overall type with a
tendency to puff her whisker pads slightly making her medium length wedge appear slightly squared off. Broad top,
ears well placed and flared, oriental eyes of light green. Profile fairly
straight, just the hint of a dish between brow and nose, chin lines up, formidably
sharp little incisors that are
level. Nicely balanced firm body and limbs, tail matching. Coat condition
excellent, smooth and svelte, pleasing soft cinnamon shade and largely sound.
AC SIAMESE/BALINESE
CHAMPION MALE.
1 GR CC. SHAND’S GR
CH ANDALYN AMADEUS . M. (24) 3yrs 1mth.
Elegant gent of medium size, seeming just a little out of
sorts today. Aristocratic wedge head with a lovely top, excellent large flared
ears well spaced, oriental eyes well inclined blue good though the hall light
did no favours to any blue eyes. Very good straight profile, pleasing depth to
his muzzle, wandering incisors that are basically level. Body of mid size, as
always I would like just a little more substance, balancing limbs and tail.
Dense seal points with sufficient contrast to the body that seemed a touch warmer in tone than I
recalled.
2. RES GR CC ROBB’S CH
RIVANESS BERTIE WOOSTER. M. (24n).
1yr 4mths.
Engaging large chap with a hint of naughtiness and
inclined to munch. Medium wedge head, large ears well placed and flared upon it
without quite the elegance of the winners’, eyes of good shape, marginally open
and I thought the blue could be deeper, but because of the hall’s light
discounted the thought and gave him the benefit. Profile almost straight, chin slopes
just a little, bite meets. Very good large body and limbs, balancing tail. Coat
texture good, short and close,
points a deep blue based shade, paw pads showing the requisite purplish warmth,
body quite shaded for one so young in matching tones.
AC SIAMESE/BALINESE
CHAMPION FEMALE.
1. GR CC. MASON’S CH
GENETTA ISLAY MIST.F. (24c) 1yr 8mths.
Medium sized girl of very correct
type without any exaggeration, pleasingly even, equilateral wedge head,
ears flared precisely in line, might be just a tad
larger for preference, but quite
acceptable, eyes of very good
shape and incline, blue as good as the light would allow. Neat firm body and
limbs, tail in keeping. Well
matched light lilac points with some warmth, simply stunning contrast to the
totally clear unshaded magnolia body, quite remarkable.
2. RES GR CC. SHAND’S CH PALMIRA SULAWEISI. F. (24b) 1yr 5mths.
Lady with considerably more flash initially with a most stylish top, lovely
large ears, well spaced and flared to flatter her wedge that shows a slight
pinch to a fine muzzle. Her eyes are quite straight and deep set, blue seemed
good. The profile is virtually straight with just a hint of the forehead
depression of her childhood just there. Elegant body and limbs, tail in
keeping, the little terminal twist as ever. Mid chocolate points, contrasting
to slightly shaded body.
AC SIAMESE/BALINESE
PREMIER MALE.
1. GR PC. MATHER’S GR
PR STATIONARY SCARLETSHADOW. MN. (32a) 4yrs 2wks.
An old friend, super
large male neuter with an excellent type and temperament to match. Very even
mid length wedge, ears of size following its lines out, almond shaped inclined
oriental eyes of good blue, profile smoothly arched, chin lines up, bite just
meets. Long mature body, matching limbs and tail. Coat shows matching clear
light red points, excellent contrast to clear, warm white body. Rather a star.
AC SIAMESE/BLAINESE
PREMIER FEMALE.
1 GR PC LINTON’S Imp
GR CH & PR FIORDILISO APRIL SHOWERS. F. (32b7) 5yrs 4mths.
Rather a
diva with a sophisticated line in curses. Mature girl of very good type, very
good even wedge, excellent ears for size and set, very good oriental shape and
incline to her blue eyes. Profile arching, firm chin, bite appeared level. Long
mature body with limbs and tail proportionate. Close lying smooth coat, showing
light cinnamon points, well broken by pale shades. Armed neutrality.
2. RES GR PC. SPENCE’S PR SCOTMAR SIMPLY
MAGIC. FN. (24) 1yr 10 mths.
Another lovely girl, long and elegant,
even, equilateral wedge, with large ears placed and flared to flatter,
good oriental blue eyes. Profile virtually straight, chin recedes just a
little, bite level. Long body, slender limbs, tail balances. Dense seal points,
body rather darkly shaded, reducing contrast somewhat.
ORIENTAL SHADED
ADULT.
1. CC. BoB. TOSUN’S
SAITAN MISS TEASE. F. (43b) 1yr 3mths.
Dainty little lass, somewhat
apprehensive. Neat, equilateral wedge head, ears of balancing size, nicely set,
oriental eyes of good light green. Very good straight profile, chin could be
just a little deeper, excellent even bite. Slender little body, limbs and tail
in keeping. Requisite usual under coat about half way up hair shafts on the
flanks, shorter elsewhere, leading to mid chocolate tipping, followed by a tiny
terminal paler section, giving an impression of gold dusting; no banding
otherwise. Good texture, typical patterning on mask, limbs and tail.
