Comments:

One is placing over two for her advantage in general appearance. She is more feminine, more upstanding, and has greater length of bone than the second place doe. She also has a more correct set to the rear leg, both when viewed from the rear and from the side, and her front legs point more directly forward. Two is placing over three also for her advantage in general appearance, particularly her feet and legs. She is stronger on her pasterns and her hocks are wider apart. The third place doe is commended for her strength of bone.

Comments:

One show an advantage over two in the set to the rear legs when viewed from the rear. Her rear legs are pointed more correctly forward with less turning in at the hock. She has an advantage in dairy character beings more angular and freer from excess flesh in the flank region. She yields more correct breed character about the nose to 2.
Two excels three in dairy character. She is more outcurving in the escutcheon and has a longer neck than does 3. She also has an advantage in body capacity being deeper at the heart, wider at the point of elbow and deeper into the rear barrel.

Three is to be commended for the straightness of the fore leg in side profile.
