The Final
In Search of a Champion
Phil Drabble and Eric Halsall introduce a Final of superb trial work as the four successful finalists compete at Buttermere for the Single and Brace Championship trophies. The Singles:
BOB FRASER With Phil for England East
A shepherd of 50 years' trials experience with a dog that incredibly has improved upon his performance at every trial so far. DAVID SHENNAN with Meg for Scotland
The combination of deft handling and the power of this dog have earned them highest single points in these trials. The Brace:
JOHN GILCHRIST with Roy and Bob for Scotland
Confidence born of years of experience and skill bring this 71-year-old shepherd to the Final with two of his best dogs.
GLYK JOKES with Gel and Brachen for Wales
These two dogs are a perfectly balanced team and have the highest brace score to date.
