Comments:

Placing this class of milkers under 2, 1 over 2 in General Appearance. This doe has an advantage for having a longer bone pattern throughout. Also, showing greater width between the hind legs as well as a more desirable angle to the hock, when viewed from the side. In Dairy Character she excels in a longer/leaner neck. In Mammary it appears that she has a more desirable shape to the udder and a stronger medial suspensory ligament that more clearly defines the udder halves.

Placing 2 over 3, in her turn for her stronger Front End Assembly, She has an advantage in the following, by blending more smoothly from neck into withers which are more prominently arched, and have a tighter junction of the shoulder blade to the wither. As well as, being smoother blended thru the shoulder blades into the chest wall. She will grant greater spring of rib to the doe standing in third place.

And for that greater Spring of Rib, 3 is standing over 4 today. In her turn, she is superior in her Dairy Character showing greater angularity throughout, more general openness, and is freer from coarseness. She will grant greater length of body as well as, a more correct set to the ears when viewed from the front to the number 4 doe.

And for that more correct set to the ears 4 over 5 today. She excels in a more correct mammary system, being more correct in the area of the fore udder. In General Appearance she is straighter in the foreleg and is showing a more moderate strength in the brisket. She will however, grant to the 5th place doe, her overall general Angularity especially about the rear legs! Therefore she should be commended for that angularity of the hock when viewed from the side.

Comments:

Entry #2 places at the head of the class quite easily, she excels the other does in General appearance, being more smoothly blended throughout, more level from hips to pins. She is wider in the chest floor and straighter in the foreleg than the other does standing behind her. She also excels in mammary system, having more correct teat placement than the doe in 2nd place.

2nd place is going over 3rd for her dairy character, having a longer leaner neck, She is also longer bodied and she will grant to 3, a slight advantage in levelness of rump.

That levelness of rump is what places 3 over 4 as well as the height of rear udder.

4 over 5 in her turn, for general appearance, she seems to have a slight advantage in stifle angulation.

I will commend the 5 place doe for her depth of heart
