In terms of photo records, I found this picture of her
from March 2019 when she was Nisai.

A Few Concluding Thoughts
Whilst our Baby Champions from The All England, and
the two South of England Koi Shows in the last 5 years
have beaten more Koi to win their respective Champion
awards, and noting they were won at Open Shows and
in very tough competition – particularly The All England,
regarded as the stiffest competition in the UK – It’s
difficult to look past the ‘Map Of England 2’ winning the
top award open to her at the Crouch Valley’s Photo
Show as another major achievement. And even though
it was at a smaller Show, any Koi exhibitor will tell you
how extremely difficult it is to win the top award at any
Show, and so for us, ‘Map Of England 2’ is right up
there in terms of achievement and earns her a place in
our ‘Pond of Fame’ (well, Hall of Fame)!
Tony picked well, and reared her meticulously over the
last year. She is still a young Koi at Yonsai, and I have
high hopes for her as she matures over the next 2 or
3 years.
