Actually, Reserve is just for that purpose..... if for any reason the winner can't go on (such as at a regular show, when it would compete for Breed), the Reserve takes its place. Reserve in the Futurity should be the same....only difference here is that the PC decided to allow them to compete at the National. Also, according to my local Field Rep, the wins should be disallowed and will be. She also said that there could have been a Bench Show Committee, especially since the 4 month rule is also a club rule, but the club couldn't take away the wins...that will be done by the AKC.
