     Lee's point was a good one concerning withholding the blue.  There is 
another: it can 
send a message that the animal is not show quality. In this instance it is not 
intended to
offend, but can be quite positive.  Years ago I saw Ginny McCoy withhold 1st on 
a single
entry class. the owner had been showing the dog in puppy, then novice at many 
shows,
not realizing that the dog was far from quality.  After that day that the blue 
was withheld,
she acquired a good dog and became quite successful. So, you see, sometimes 
with-
holding can be an act of kindness.
