Best Udder in this Class goes to Entry E as she has a capacious globular udder showing a strong medial suspensory ligament along with lateral attachments, more extension to the fore udder and has downward pointing teats. Entry E over Entry D in General Appearance for greater length of bone, smoother blending of of her longer neck into the withers and a closer toe set. Both of these does have nice udders however Entry E carries the floor of the udder higher above the hocks, more extension to the fore udder and more clearly seen lateral attachments.

Entry D stands at the front of the line of the three-year-olds. Her strength is in body capacity and mammary system. She is wider and deeper than the doe standing in second place. She also has a more capacious udder with stronger medial suspensory ligament, so she will earn Best Udder. Entry D will grant more proper conditioning to the doe standing in second.

Entry E is our second place doe. She stands ahead of Entry A by being wider in the chest floor with that width carrying through all the way to the escutcheon. E also has more width near the top of the rear udder. I would like to see more angulation in the rear legs of this doe.

Entry A excels Entry B in general appearance. She is more level in the topline and has a more correct front end assembly with her front legs falling directly beneath her withers. Entry A also has a more capacious udder. I would like to see more correct angulation in the hind legs.

Entry B stands ahead of Entry C because she is lactating and C is a dry doe. The photos of Entry B make it difficult to assess this doe. The side, rear, and front photos should be taken with the camera positioned at a level even with the middle of the doe.

Entry C, by being a dry doe, cannot easily compete with does in milk since the mammary represents 30% of the scorecard. This means that the mammary system carries a lot of weight when looking at milking does. Entry C shows good width and depth, with plenty of room in the escutcheon for a capacious udder.
