How does a rabbit win a GC leg?
The magic numbers are always 5 animals and 3 exhibitors. However, it depends on the award as to which animals are counted.
-BIS and Reserve in Show - win legs if there are 5 animals competing in the show, shown by at least 3 exhibitors
-Best 6 Class and Best 4 Class – both win legs if there are 5 or more animals competing, exhibited by 3 or more exhibitors
-Best of Breed, Best of Group, Best of Variety – win legs if there are 5 or more animals in the breed/group/variety and at least 3 exhibitors showing them
-Best Opposite S*x of Breed, Best Opposite S*x of Group, Best Opposite S*x of Variety – win legs if there are 5 or more animals of the OPPOSITE S*X of the BOB, BOG or BOV winning animal and 3 or more exhibitors showing those 5 or more animals. Only the animals of the opposite s*x are counted for these legs.
-First in Class wins a leg if there are 5 or more animals in the class and 3 or more exhibitors
