2nd. Hedges and Bogovcics Ch. Suurisuun Boppinghams Birulai.
A Red and White Pied of excellent quality which in lots of ways is a smaller version of 1 and many of my previous comments apply to him. My first impression was how he exhibited that requirement of great strength for size. He is such a beautifully, balanced, well constructed dog with a strong, wide, fore chest and excellent straight bone and good feet. He has a neck that is good in both length and strength which in turn runs into a very good body which is short coupled and powerful with strong well muscled hind quarters. He also possesses a smashing head with lovely clean lips a skull which is both broad and deep. His bite is good and he owns lovely dark eyes and rose ears. I have to say I have a different opinion of him having put my hands on him than I had when Ive seen him from the ringside! However although he is a tad small for me I can still appreciate his many attributes. A very pleasing dog who behaved being expertly handled.

Correct well boned forequarters, depth of brisket and spring of rib. He also highlights his topline at all times. Well angulated hindquarters and moved quite well.

1 Hedges & Bogovcic’s Ch Suurisuun Boppingham Birulai, a strikingly marked pied dog that fits the Standard to a "T”. There is nothing overdone about this lad & so much to like. Short coupled & powerful but still retaining refinement. His head is beautiful, clean cut with a strong muzzle, correct dentition & lovely dark eyes. Such neat feet & the required pump handle tail with both his fore & rear construction correct allowing him to move with ease & of course, he was shown in tip-top condition & I was pleased to award him BD. He was the one to beat today & for me he has still got that Stafford spark which I was looking for, hence he pipped my BB winner to BIS

2nd Hedges & Bogovcic's CH. SUURISUUN BOPPINGHAMS BIRULAI. This red and white dog was very competitive in his class all around. He had the best side gait movement and topline in his class and in the entry overall. Good head shape, scissors bite, nice expression. A very well balanced dog that is attractive to the eye and a great outline. Well angulated rear and good front. Correct feet. A dog of real moderation, but I would prefer more of him all around. Nevertheless he stands out among his competitors.

Moved OK but didn’t show himself off to advantage today and handler had a hard time in getting him to respond. A very close call.

Such a well-balanced red pied dog with a strong well-shaped head and looking square from every direction. He has neat ears, super typical expression, broad skull, clean lips and a perfect scissor bite. He has a broad front, good spring of rib, a deep brisket, level topline and muscular hindquarters and plenty of bone. He moved well and held his topline.

3. YD Suurisuun Boppinghams Birulai. Skewbald of 22 months. A balanced dog who is just a shade heavy for my personal preference and who could do with a tad more lift to improve his front action. A beautiful headed dog with dark eyes, neat ears and good dentition. He has complementary angulations front and rear which enabled him to demonstrate good movement. Will no doubt go on to have a very successful show career.

6.7.2013 East Of England - Judge Geoff Faulkner
1st YD Suurisuun Boppinghams Birulai, very flashy r/w pied, certainly the star of the day by a distance, early 20 months, although not a large class he stood out like a beacon as he did in the line-up when challenging, found that when I viewed him from any angle he fits the bill like a glove, movement & showmanship second to none, a Standard dog, beautiful in outline ideal height to weight ratio, good head shape with a prominent stop, correct dentition, good breadth of muzzle & ample depth of underjaw, dark round well placed eyes, good earset & carriage providing a keen expression, I could be nitpicking & say I prefer a slightly smaller ear but the perfect Stafford has not been born, straight front with ample bone, supported by strong pasterns & neat tight feet, deep brisket & well sprung ribcage, good level topline both standing & on the move, short in body with defined waistline, hindquarters well angulated giving him a perfect driving motion, well muscled thighs & good bend of stifle, in excellent condition, handler certainly knows how to get the best out of him. CC, BOB & G2.
Pleased to see my BOB take G2, he really did the Stafford proud – the G1, G3 & G4 were all top winning group & BIS winners. At the end of the day he was still showing as well as he did in his breed class, moved around the BIS ring as if he owned it. Also a pleasure to see my BP take PG4.
Critic of group judge:
Can I thank the Officers and Committee of the East of England for inviting me to judge the Terrier Group, and the reception and hospitality throughout the day, it’s sincerity and warmth very much complimented the weather, which allowed the representative Best of Breeds to be shown in first
class conditions. Although, as not all Breeds are scheduled, not a full Terrier Group but a Group full of quality, indeed many of today’s BOB Winners, I have judged previously and given them principal awards, but such was the depth of choice, some had to remain cardless. After initial assessment, I shortlisted 8 breeds for further consideration, including, Llwellyn’s Miniature Bull Terrier Bullypins Kalypso, Vaughan’s Parson Russell Ch Parrus Comanche Chief, Tovey’s Scottish Ch Trakside Flyingscotsman at Charmic and Fallon’s SCWT Ch Janey Jimjams Jenson.
G2 – Hedges & Bogovcic’s SBT, Suurisuun Boppinghams Birulai. Balanced throughout, demonstrating power and substance without being too big or too coarse, super head profile, well made shoulders flowing nicely into level topline, good deep brisket and close coupled, moved true.
