At the Royal Cheshire Agricultural Society Open Show Ricco did us proud. Under breed expert Rebecca DeBlasi Ricco was awarded fudst in his class, followed by best dog then Best of Breed. Best of breed then goes onto the group challenge. In this case the Gundog group. In the challenge Ricco was shortlisted in the best eight.
At the Windsor Championship Show on 3rd July Ricco again won his class and was narrowly beaten to reserve best dog.
