Well I may well be corrected by the people who know WAY more than me, but I would say that it was a very white Kindai Showa as it has black on the head which I believe showas shouldn't. And it's not a tancho as the Hi isn't confined just to the head.

the simple way to look at it is this, if you took the beni away ( imagine its not there for a minute) would it be bekko or shiro?
bekko all the way so its a sanke

Sanke
and if its a young male (which it looks like) then the red will fade. Its too red too early
