A younger male of one and a half years of age who has very good type and a lovely pleasing expression but unlucky to be against a more mature boy on the day. He is a very handsome seal tabby point who has a firm solid well built body and strong legs with good boning. Head shape was broad and well rounded with medium size ears that were spaced well apart. Beautiful deep blue eyes that were large, almost round in shape and with a super expression. The nose was of medium length and had a slight dip at the nasal bridge with a full pink nose leather edged with seal brown. The cheeks were round and full and he had a broad muzzle showing clear tabby spotting. The chin was firm and he had a good level bite. Tabby markings on the mask were very distinct showing an ‘M’ on his forehead, clear spectacles around the eyes and his mask had a pleasing diamond shape. The ears matched the colour of the other points and had a hint of thumb prints. The coat was long and full with a lovely pale ruff and a medium length bushy tail showing tabby rings. Coat texture was soft and had a silky feel and had a shady saddle over the back. His feet were clean and white and the gloves were almost level with the left one having a slightly scalloped edge. The socks were matching and symmetrical and he had level gauntlets which varied in width having the right one narrower and the left one broader. A promising boy who I feel he has good things to come his way in future.
