Sorry, I must have missed the response in the other thread.

Henry's description makes sense as Best Baby is essentially Baby Reserve Champion. Never seen that one before.

Well to answer the question....which is just my opinion folks(so please dont get mad at me)...Anyways, I wasnt in the ring so I really dont know what to say as far as Don's Size 2 GinRin Sanke being picked...So with that in mind, I guess Don's Sanke in the mind of the judges was to good to be given Best in Size 2 and was better than anything in Size 1 for that size to be give "Best Baby".

Since the second baby award was created there has been more fish in size 1 & 2 and that was the aim.

That is correct. The 'Best Baby' is the 2nd place baby champion. So just as the reserve champion is the second place fish in the entire show, the best baby is the 'reserve champion' or second best baby in the show.
In effect, it is young show within the greater show. And the two best fish are selected.

Nothing Like making simple things hard !

Why would they not just call it :

Baby Grand Champion & Baby Reserve Champion

Even a New Hobbiest would get that .

That would work also but it would be even easier if you think about GC anything as first place, GC reserve as second place and best of size as third place. If you orientate yourself to this ranking of first second and third, the tiltes become more of an Honorarium and up to the individual show committees and parent organization's culture and traditions. -JR
