Judge’s Critique with photos of winners
I would like to say thank you to the officers and committee for inviting me to judge and for the very warm welcome, and to all exhibitors who came along and stayed till the end, the atmosphere was amazing all day.
Overall I found all exhibits to be of good health and fitness, and all within the standard.
