This year saw Freddie staying at home as he has now taken semi- retirement but hopefully he may make a few appearances later this year.
Delighted that Mia was placed 3rd in Post Grad Bitch, still some maturing to do but she has plenty of time.

McKenna who won Open Bitch who was awarded it. Well done
Both Faye and McKenna are sired by Freddie
Also placed 2nd in Post Grad Dog was Freddie son, Ludstar Maccabee At Glenquin, owned by myself and the Johnston family
Thank you to the judge Mr Frank Kane

Fabulous Freddie, CC (his 47th) and BOB (his 40th) from Veteran class followed by Best Veteran in the Gundog Group
My BOB just took my breath away as he is outstanding and an epitome of the breed.
He possesses all the required attributes that makes a first-class Gordon Setter and my eyes were drawn to him like a magnet
Boxall & Salamon’ s Sh Ch Ludstar Frederick Frankenstein (IMP ITA)
Terrific male oozing quality and breed type and ticked all the boxes of my ideal Gordon Setter,
gorgeous head and gentle expression, bright eyes, reachy neck blending smoothly into the withers, spot on front assembly, best of legs and feet possible,
excellent body with perfect spring of rib, short back, firm topline held on the move, tailcarriage level with the back,
hind assembly mirrored that of his front, as his construction suggested he moved out with reach and drive, gorgeous well-presented coat,
good tan markings, put on a good performance throughout and could not be denied the top spot, ultimately landed the
CC and BOB and BEST VETERAN

Breed Judge Critique Pam Blay
VD (4) 1 Boxall & Salamon’s Sh Ch Ludstar Frederick Frankenstein, a lovely class to start with & a chance to judge in the breed one of the greats of the last few years.
Thrilled to have a chance to go over this well known dog & he did not disappoint. You would never guess that this dog is 10 years old, put down in such hard,
fit condition & when he moves with his excellent head carriage & strong topline he just powered round the ring with such presence, drive & attention seeking movement.
He is so balanced with excellent neck & shoulders, lovely hindquarters & tailset.
He set the template for the day & at the end of it, I just could not deny him both the CC & BOB,
beating a bitch who I have admired from a distance for a while.
I couldn’t stay but I am told he was pulled out all the stops & at the end of the day,
won group 4 and then took the veteran group – what a dog & what a chance I had to judge him in his own breed & not just in a group.
Gundog Group Critique David Shields
HUGE THANK YOU TO ALL THE JUDGES AND THE ENDLESS MESSAGES OF CONGRATULATIONS

"Sh Ch Ludstar Frederick Frankenstein. In this slow maturing breed, here came the full package at it’s very finest,
at 7 years a true Gordon full of quality and class, beautiful balanced head and dark eye, clean neck fitting smoothly into well laid shoulders,
superb clean and symmetrical outline, great depth to body and full rib development, excellent finish to pelvis and croup,
super hindquarters, wide and well made without any exaggerations,
moved soundly and stylishly with economic ground covering action, shown in terrific condition, with clean markings,
all of this is topped with that rare ‘sprinkling of stardust’ that turns a really good dog into a truly great dog.
My pleasure to award him the CC & BOB and delighted to see him win Gundog Group 4"
Delighted to see his daughter win Yearling Bitch
"Glenquin Phoenix. Really fell for this one, classy and with super outline and wide quarters,
lovely balanced head and good eye, excellent body and depth,
yet maintaining a certain elegance, well-handled and shown in great condition,
sound and free mover, once fully mature will be one to watch, as she also has the ‘stardust’"
In the Gundog Group Freddie takes Group 4

Boxall’s Laurelhach Entrapment JW, this young lady caught my eye on entering the ring & did not disappoint on going over. She just oozes quality from the tip of her nose to the end of her tail!
Gorgeous head with correct stop & lovely expression with the darkest of eyes. Long lean neck, correct lay of shoulder, with a level topline.
Has a good depth of chest, deep brisket & good spring of rib. Well muscled quarters, good feet & legs. Colour & tan correct, in good coat & condition.
Very sound & stylish on the move, driving from short hocks. Close up to her mother for the CC but well deserved RCC in good company. Just loved her
Sh Ch Laurelhach Legacy JW, 1st Open Bitch CC together with BOB
Lovely quality class. 1 Boxall’s Sh Ch Laurelhach Legacy JW, one I have judged before as a youngster & my opinion has not changed.
This bitch, like her daughter, just oozes quality & she knows it! Has a feminine head with soft expression, dark eyes & good stop. Long lean, arched neck leading into the best of shoulders.
She has a good depth to her chest & brisket & good spring of rib. Level topline, powerful quarters, correct bend of stifle with short hocks.
Best of feet & legs. Such a stylish but powerful mover, she moved around the ring with power & grace, with correct lashing tail action. Delighted to award her the CC & BOB
Thank you to the breed judge, Tony Green, on such a lovely day
& to all those who congratulated me on doing the 'double' in bitches with mother and daughter.
