Dear Crystal,

Thank you so much for bringing up this curious case. Oh yes, I saw
that case and began wondering whether that face is a heavily blazed one or whether his face is a normal gray in the process of graying out. I would be inclined to say is a heavy blaze if the horse's gray coat were not so dark, but since his gray is so dark I don't really know what to say. If he is coming from the strain of Unbridled's Song then it is possible, for Unbridled's Song has that tendency, but who knows! Makes me remember one of Restless Native's full brother, who was registered as a "dark gray".

Regards,
