Congrats to all the winners! Just out of curiosity - I was looking at the judging program - anyone know why sweeps was split by color (Black/AOAC), but the regular classes aren't?

Dear Rumor has it, The list you just published as being from the "grapevine" is eerily identical to the one I posted on another forum including the improper capitalization I used. Winners List was given to me from my co-owner who marked her catalog ringside and dictated it to me and I believe it to be accurate. While I am glad to share, I prefer not to be quoted as "Grapevine says"

LOL, you tell 'em Susan!!

Rumor also has it that the entry is very small, as usual for this show, so anyone have a link to the counts?

Sorry if this is kind of messy - cut and paste from the judging program PDF file.

I certainly would not call the entry small - pretty typical for most specialties and quite a bit larger than some that barely had majors this year. A decent entry in Hunting Retriever classes, which is rare.

I guess the "Grapevine Forum"?
