Two is placing over three for his advantage in general appearance, being taller at the withers and longer over the topline. Two is also more dairy, being more angular and open throughout.

The third place buck is commended for his breed character.

Comments:

One has the advantage over two in general appearance. He excels in length of body through the chie and loin. He is more uphill to the wither giving him an advantage in stature. He is also appears to have more width between the hocks. In dairy character he is more angular with sharper withers and a longer leaner neck.
Two excels three in dairy character. He has a greater strength of bone and has a less frail appearance than does 3. He is also much wider between the front legs and deeper into the brisket than is 3. He shows a more correctly angled rear leg at the hock than does 3. He is more smoothly blended in the front end assembly at the point of shoulder as well.

The junior buck in 3rd is to be commended on his breed character about the ears.
