Has a big splash of white on her belly. I'll post some pics when I get home. She was lovely, went for $9000

There is a little complicating issue here. According
to the following login:

she is a "gray" in the normal process of "graying out" :?

Lets see what the photos reveal.

That is a belly spot for sure, it's just going to disappear when she finally finishes graying to a solid white eventually. It's not part of the graying process.

A future hypothetic cross for this filly may well be the sire Snowbound Paisley, just as he may also match well (phenotypically speaking) with the filly, Saluki Gold Rush.

To bad the APHA has the 1 paint-parent rule now... she'd definitely qualify.

Yeah that is def. a lovely white spot. Too bad it will eventually be "lost". Down The Aisle also has belly spot(s) but you can only see them close up.
