Help in choosing a cornsnake

I've never had a cornsnake before; instead I've kept lots of different kingsnakes and milksnakes.

I really like the striped amelanistic, the striped sunglow, and the hypo bloodred. I've handled many cornsnake morphs, but never any of these...

I have a friend going to the Hamm Show next week, and he's willing to bring back a snake for me (I live in Italy). I want a 2006 or 2007 male, and am having difficulty in deciding which one of the above mentioned snakes would be the most spectacular display animal and pet.

Is the striped sunglow similar to the striped amelanistic, with the colors just more "jump at you vibrant"? Any photos would be greatly appreciated, as the only one I've seen in a photo was not that good.

Lastly, what would be the maximum length that these cornsnakes will realistically attain?

Thanks very much for your help!

Dan
