Hood and Top (20 pts.): Long, coming well forward, thick and even at the edge, fitting almost close to the head as possible, forming the hood’s portion of the top feather.

Mane (15 pts.): Long and smooth, thick from side to side. Starting at a point which will make the lower part distinctly the shortest, then rising solidly and curving out as it rises in an unbroken sweep as high above the head as possible, forming the mane’s share of the top feather and blending into the hood, the top of the mane behind the hood showing a marked backward extension and fullness of outline.

Chain (20 pts.): Long, smooth, balancing the mane. High and toppy, with pronounced forward extension in front of the hood, matching the outline of upper mane and forming the chain’s contribution to the top feather. Curving downward, the two sides meet in perfect alignment, the lower part tapering in and balancing the whipped-in effect of lower mane. Even at the bottom, not too far down the breast, but far enough to leave a finished effect.

Body (5 pts.): Strictly slender, stressing slimness at the shoulders. Long and shapely, tapering gradually to the tail, with slightly hollowed back. Neck of good length. Flights long and carried above the tail. Legs of medium length.

Carriage (15 pts.): Very upright and showy. The bird should be an ever-ready shower and stretcher, thus showing the feather formation to its fullest advantage.

Color (15 pts.): Rich, sound and lustrous, even throughout, with the luster especially brilliant on the hood, mane, and chain.
