First Place:  4

Entry number: 1537

Exhibitor: EmsoffLambs

State: CA

Sheep name/number: Emsoff #548

Breed: Hampshire X

I see #4 as the most massively constructed down his top and rear leg. His hip is very flat and wide. I also appreciate his length from end to end and his skeletal correctness.

Second Place:  1

Entry number: 1422

Exhibitor: 2TLivestock

State: NE

Sheep name/number: Swamp Donkey X Gutter Rat ewe

Breed: Hampshire X

The #1 ewe lamb has an admirable outline. She is dead level in her top and hip. She has an explosive rack and a deep, full inner leg. I would like to see this one in motion as I question the amount of set to her rear legs.

Third Place:  2

Entry number: 1425

The #2 wether has a very expressive outer stifle muscle. However, along with that, he brings some structure issues. He rolls off in his hip, is rough down his top and not as nicely squared off in his pins.

Fourth Place:  3

Entry number: 1515

Exhibitor: BriannaVoelzke

State: OK

Sheep name/number: Madden

Breed: Natural

I do appreciate the length of body of wether #3. However, I read him as too narrow in his top and overall width to advance in this class.
