Hi Jorge,
I just picked up some old copies of Racing Illustrated, a European publication from the late 1800s. I've got a few spare minutes, so thought I'd send a few names that might be new for you....
Where I just say "white leg," that's generally something larger than your average sock but shorter than a stocking. And I hope the names are all correct. Some of the type was a bit faded/hard to read.
Immigrant - ch. h. 1890, by Exile II - Avonwick, by She Saw
Seems to have a blaze, nice long-legged model, three white legs. It appears all three are full stockings, with ragged edges at the tops
Whiston - ch. c. 1890, by Prism - Wild Mint, by Wild Oats
Nice blaze and one hind stocking
Rockdove - brown or black (?) filly, by Gallinule - Sleeping Beauty, by Ben Battle
Blaze face and three white legs
Marco - ch. c. by Barcaldine - Novitiate, by Hermit
Looks like he has a blaze, two hind stockings
Arcano - ch. (1891) by Mask - Annette
Large blaze, small white spots on ribcage that might be scars or photo problem
Ortolo - b. c. by Bend Or - Napoli, by Macaroni
Blaze, three white legs
Solaro - b.c. by Galopin - Capri
Blaze, two white legs
Crotanstown - ch. 1892, Gallinule or Favo- Lady Louisa, by Solon
Large blaze, three white legs (can't tell how high due to bandages)
Esther Clark - gorgeous! "black filly" - 1893, by Esterling - Rose Clark, by Speculum or Napsbury.
Right hind stocking, wide blaze.
When I find time I'll post more names, but perhaps one or two of these shall be new for you.
New old flashy TBs for Jorge

I found time to post a few more.... (it's fun)
Avilion - 1893 filly, by Cameliard - Myra
Fairly wide blaze, left hind sock with ragged edges
Camelot - 1883 ch.m.,by Cremorne (?) - Lynette, by Lord Lyon
Fairly wide blaze, white sock (or socks - can only see one leg)
Photo shows her foal, probably of 1895. Foal has a star and at least one sizeable stocking (may be more)
Grey Lag - now, I'm guessing this is the model the race is named for?
Wow, he's beautiful - dark grey with a few large light spots, blaze face, one sock. By Pepper and Salt - Quetta. I wonder what Pepper and Salt looked like? Great name.
Le Var - by Isonomy - St. Marguerite
Large blaze extending into nostrils, left hind stocking, small white patch near withers that's probably from saddle rubs
Bumptious -
1888, by Brag - Headlong, by Pell Mell
Remarkably flashy horse - very large blaze up to browband, four full stockings
Brag - the sire of Bumptious
1878
Very flashy, high-headed stallion, large blaze, right hind stocking.
He looks like a nasty character! He's shown as a stallion, and I'd guess it was as a 17-year-old stallion. Two men are holding him tightly, and one of those carries a large stick. A third man, nearby, has a bullwhip cocked toward Brag. I love a photo that tells a story! I've never seen a photo like that, especially from the 1800s.
Guinevra - mare, not sure of foaling date, etc. (late 1800s)
Sizeable blaze into nostrils, left hind sock
Carbine - probably famous enough that you have his information
Mowerina - ch. m. 1876, by Scottish Chief -
Two hind stockings
Bedlight - ch. c. 1892, by Prism - Dureuse
Three stockings, and blaze
Solaro - probably well enough known that you have his info
Quartus - ch. h. 1886, by Tertius
Blazed face and sock
Golden Fringe - out of Golden Drop
Very wide blaze and one stocking
Shown with her foal, by Quartus, who has a blaze and two stockings
(unsure of dates)
