Newcastle Terrier & Toy Club – 16/11/02 - Judge:  Walter Bore (QLD)

Kelstock Nickki's Black Magic – This one like his name is MAGIC. He has lovely balance, conforms well to the standard. I liked what I saw. Today muscle tone & condition let him down. Personality plus. In spite of this, pushed hard for Reserve Challenge.  He will be at the top end soon and we will know him well.

Belfast – 22/10/01 - Judge:  Brian Owen

Kelstock Nickki's Black Magic – Standard dark brindle of quality, really shows his socks off, lovely head, dark eyes, neat ears, good front, nice topline, moved well.

National Terrier – 12/8/01 - Judge: Frank Gough

 Res CC - Kelstock Nickki's Black Magic – Standard size black brindle, shown to perfection. Well chiselled head of correct proportion, correct bite, darkest of eyes, neatest of ears, compact with everything in proportion, in excellent condition, moved well, a ring presence that pushed him ahead of some top class opposition.

Paignton – 13/7/01 - Judge: Doreen B Pugh

 Kelstock Nickki's Black Magic – Dark Brindle, balanced out very well, good head shape with excellent pigmentation, correct dentition with good size teeth. Straight front, well angulated fore and hindquarters. Weight to size ratio just right. Moved freely and handled very well. Just that little longer in cast than number one.  A dog that is always going to be in contention.

Kelstock Nickki's Black Magic – Black brindle, standard size, lighter build than first, well proportioned head, neat ears, short muzzle, clean lipped, straight front, level topline, good angulation.

Darlington – 19/9/00 - Judge: Patrick McGlynn

 Kelstock Nickki's Black Magic – Standard sized Black brindle, good head and ears on this strong bodied young dog, gleamed with health and fitness, credit to his owner, straight front, short back, well muscled backend all contributed to a very pleasing picture, moved soundly with a lot of animation, lovely balance won here. Tends to hold his head too high when standing which can spoil his picture.

SKC – 26/8/00 - Judge: Alec Waters

 Kelstock Nickki's Black Magic – Dark brindle of quality, not far behind the first dog, good expression, round eye, well defined stop, blunt foreface, nice to see such a clean lip and neat ear carriage, well developed cheek muscles, all contributing to an attractive expression, well boned, good bend of stifle, well balanced, plenty of pigmentation, moved quite well. Although his coat is a little coarse and needs attention, preferred the overall class winner.

WKC – 20/8/00 - Judge: Tommy Dix

 Kelstock Nickki's Black Magic – Dark Brindle out of the top drawer, excellent head, lovely dark eye, neat ears, good dentition, excellent body, good bend of stifle and topline, moved with purpose, shown to perfection.
