Excellent didn't exist. Now that they do, we probably don't need a class to
showcase dogs that have more prestigious awards for the same requirments.
As I understand it, the conditional class can be defined for whatever the 
breed
club wants to emphasize? Maybe the requirements should be changed for
dogs that have the PC Health Certificates. I think it would be worthwhile to 
showcase dogs that are not only OFA hips and elbows, but also good on
thyroid, pacreatic function, heart, etc. Structure can be seen, but we don't
always know which dogs in the specials class have been tested clear of 
many problems our breed suffers from. Since so many of us at the National
are "shopping for bloodlines" to breed into, it would be great to showcase 
those
quality animals whose owners have had more than the usual health tests
run on them.

I agree. When we have an elite award called Award Of Excellence and Select
Excellent that is for exactly the same thing on dogs that go Select......it 
almost
seems to minimize it when it is also made just a Class......?? I sure 
don't get it!
Seems an obvious choice if we really do want to streamline the National.
