Quick query guys... I am hoping to enter the following class at Crufts 2012. My greyhounds are registered with the Irish Kennel Club, the NCC and have now been registered with the English Kennel Club on their 'Form 4' Import register.

Sooooo... my question is just to clarify that my dogs are now eligible to enter the class? They are now registered with the English Kennel Club as Imports I suppose for the purpose of showing in the UK so that must count as enough? I'm not resident in England so can't register them in the normal way in the UK.

I realise some Irish people have previously registered their dogs with the English KC in order to show but I was advised by the KC that that is unecessary and merely a Form 4 must be completed. Ireland doesn't require an Authority to Compete number either according to their latest info.

I've queried this with the Kennel Club but just thought I may get a quick response here.
