Oya
I was not at the competition and I am blogging...collating datas from various websites. As I gleaned through the results,  I was looking for Master Kazunari Saito....looking for his manificent Oyas that were so captivating last year...especially the white Oya which was competing magnificiently the last few years.
Sadly those fishes retired, but Master Kazunari Saito won handsomely with some new fishes.
