John Record wins
the 2013 Classic and the Founders Trophy.
It was a nice
sunny day for the 2013 LCA Classic show at its new venue of Roade, Northants.
The village hall lived up to expectations with ample natural light to show the
Lizards off to their best advantage. Judge Dave Ross commented that "The
venue was excellent far superior to past venues.The facilities were good and
there is plenty of room for future expansion.The venue is also ideally located
just off the motorway and equidistant from the main centres of the lizard
fancy."

The show was once again sponsored by Johnstone and Jeff, LBS Gold Chips Bedding, EMP Donald Cooke, Rob Harvey, Johnson's, Birdcare, and Ryders Rosettes. The catering and raffle was once again organised efficiently by Joe Coakley. Show Secretary was John Record and the Show Manager was John Martin. Apart from the normal rosettes on offer for the winners there was also rosettes from Australia, New Zealand, the Lizard Dag show in Keijenborg, IOA GB COM along with special Alec Forrest memorial rosettes from the Scottish Lizard Canary Association. There was also plaques from Australia, New Zealand and C&A Birds.
It was also nice to see Dick Cocksedge at the show and he confirmed that he will be returning to keeping Lizards. It was also refreshing to see two new novices – Wayne Elton and Les Evans showing at the Classic for the first time. There was also a number faces some old and some new who made the effort to visit the new venue and in some cases show.
With an entry of over 165, up on last year, the judge for the day, Dave Ross of Tyne and Wear had a nice time working through some large classes assisted by the stewards for the day, Gary McCarthy, Andy Williamson and Geoff Louth. Dave selected as best Lizard, John Record’s clear cap gold hen. Second was Novice Steve Martin’s broken cap gold cock, third was Darren Westley’s broken cap silver cock, fourth was Stan Bolton’s non cap gold cock and finally fifth place was taken by Novice Steve Martin’s clear cap gold cock. Dave Ross said "As regards birds the gold lizards were of a better standard than the silver's however it was pleasing to see improving breast work and black legs in the silver's."

E 'stato anche bello vedere Dick Cocksedge alla Mostra ed ha confermato che tornerà ad allevare Lizards. E’ stato anche piacevole vedere due nuovi novizi - Wayne Elton e Les Evans che esponevano al Classic per la prima volta. C'era anche numerose facce alcune vecchie ed altre nuove che hanno fatto lo sforzo di visitare la nuova sede e in alcuni casi la mostra .
Con oltre 165 ingabbi, in aumento rispetto allo scorso anno, il giudice è stato Dave Ross di Tyne and Wear ha avuto un lavoro bello ed impegnativo a giudicare classi con un gran numero di presenze ed assistito dai commissari Gary McCarthy, Andy Williamson e Geoff Louth. Dave ha scelto come miglior Lizard, Best in Show la femmina dorata calotta netta di John Record. In secondo posizione il maschio calotta spezzata del debuttante Steve Martin, terzo è stato il maschio argentato calotta spezzata di Darren Westley, quarto un maschio dorato no cap Stan Bolton e, infine, il quinto posto è stato il maschio calotta netta dorato del debuttante Steve Martin. Dave Ross ha dichiarato: "I lizard dorati erano di un livello migliore rispetto agli argentati tuttavia di questi erano piacevole vedere le ottime rowings e le gambe nere.
