Reminds me of the story with the Japanese Hobbyist Takigawa(101cm Sanke fame)...Well he had planned to show one of his other big koi at the All-Japan ZNA, when this koi came down with something he had to make a quick replacement so he did and guess what that replacement ended up winning GC...Which fish was that you might ask? It was the Scarlet Queen.
