Its a beautiful koi and giving a little more time I do think this kohaku will brighten up and knock some socks off. The pattern is good and also the tail tube is good and thick. the koi looks like it was stressed a little when the pic was taken and I bet the shiro is much better than the pic shows. I would take this one and enter into a few shows, I think this koi has a good show future
I wish I had one like that with the good body and hi
