Comments:

One is placing over two for her advantage in general appearance, which is apparent in her topline. She is stronger in the chine, more uphill from hips to withers, and more level from hips to pins. She is also more prominent in her brisket, straighter in her front legs, and stronger on her pasterns.

Two is placing over three for her advantage in mammary system. Her udder is more desirably shaped and balanced, and has a smoother texture and more correctly shaped teats.

The second place doe does grant to the extension of fore udder in the third place doe.

Comments:

Although the breed character about the ears is much preferred in the does standing 2nd and 3rd the doe in first easily comes to the top in the other aspects of general appearance. Compared to 2 she is stronger in forelegs being straighter in side profile and wider from the front. She is stronger in topline with a more level hip than we see in 2. She is more correctly angled to the rear leg at the hock. She excels in mammary system with a more correct shape to the rear udder with more width at the top. She has more symmetry in side profile as well. She will be first udder in the class.
Two has the advantage over three in mammary system. She has more balance between the halves of the udder today. She is also showing in her turn a greater width of udder to the rear. In general appearance she stands with more correctness of rear leg both from the side and the rear. She will yield to the more level topline of 3 for which she will be commended.
