Beautiful Chestnut Agouti Ring

Judge Nita is commenting on Eleanor, a French Angora chestnut agouti doe.   John is writing on a comment card; Lindsay and Carol are listening to Nita's comments.

Eleanor is an older junior but being shown in the senior class.   Still in the coop is Meara, mother of Eleanor, who won the class as she is more mature.

Though Eleanor is still too young to be competitive in the senior class, her ring definition is sure beautiful.  

For informational purpose, here is the description of chestnut in the Standard of Perfection:
"Surface color is a rich chestnut, ticked with black tipped guard hairs.  It shall have one or more intermediate bands of tan, alternating with slate, with a blue-gray undercolor."
