	A super Critique from Sue Simper after winning 1st in Limit Class  Barnes’ Diamondridge Da Vinci, 23 months impressive clear red of quality. Up to size, very well boned, full of breed type. Well balanced head, masculine without being overdone, flat skull, clean through temples & cheeks, deep powerful muzzle. Lovely arched neck of good length, very good shoulder placement, correct in front. Deep capacious ribcage, broad in loin, strong, well made quarters with excellent bend of stifle, low set well defined hocks, long ground covering profile action but he did not seem fully at ease today. A great shame as he appealed immensely; Baccus striding out to win BIS at the Rhodesian Ridgeback Club of GB.  What the Judge Mike House said about him. "DIAMONDRIDGE DA VINCI JW An outstanding specimen, so solid in construction with lean muscle tone throughout for one so young. Flat skull and excellent length proportion between skull and muzzle showing depth and power in jaw. Fabulous shoulder angulation with a good length and return of upper arm, and in perfect harmony with his rear assembly with a good width of first thigh. Superb height to length ratio with excellent ribbing, substantial in bone with strong pasterns. Moved so true fore and aft with an impressive effortless side gait. Well deserved BIS"
