Darley Arabian White spot
Jorge,
There's a book up on Thoroughbreds listed on eBay right now that features a color plate of the Darley Arabian. Can't make out the artist, but the horse is shown as a bay, three white socks and a large irregular white mark on his withers.
Did a quick look for other paintings of the Darley Arabian, and they all show the bay/three white socks, but no white spot.
If this is an accurate painting, the whole white spot/sabino thing goes way, way back.
Also do you collect photos of the horses you study?

Try here. Click on the image (two horses) to see larger images, and the one with the Darley Arabian shows up. The marking on this painting looks sort of like a running cross.
Hope this helps.

Here is a link to the same painting and it gives the painter as John Wootton.

Nu
and the son Flying Childers is definitely a Sabino too. Maybe they have left the marking off on other paintings/pictures to make the horse look more perfect....
here is a Morgan site and there are pictures too of the three basic stallions:

I would think the Lady Wentworth would be quite correct.

King of the Wind is a fiction version of the life of the Godolphin Arabian written by Margurite Henry. Very romantic version of the basic story told from the point of view of his "groom" a young mute man who is with the horse till he dies. Basicaly a kids book, Margurite Henry wrote a whole series of kids horse books, including: Black Gold, Misty, San Domingo : The Medicine Hat Stallion, Born to Trot, Justin Morgan.

Hi Guys
The link above shows the same image that is posted already but on a different site.
There is also a Horse that was painted by George Stubbs Expo that I went to at The National Gallery in London in 2005 showing the Lord Grosvenors Arabian Stallion this horse also has very high white legs jagged marked up to the thigh and very long broad white blaze with the phenotype pink lips and white under jaw.
can be seen on my web site under coloured thoroughbred breeders assocation I have found many pictures of sabino's to illistrate the various genes I have been to liverpool to the Walker Art Gallery were we met the Archivist and privately photographed King Georges TB coloured a Skewbald Stallion with two others in the background.[/url]
