Brindle markings (on a Warmblood)

Postby Firebrand » Sat Feb 07, 2009 8:22 pm

I just ran across a brindle stallion posted on a sporthorse site -

http://www.stoneybrookefarm.com/horses/Natal/

He is a Brazilian Warmblood, described as a mahogany bay with silver brindling.

I have never seen this coat pattern on a horse before. How common is it?

Not common, and hes one of the only, if not the only brindle wbs. He has supposedly This http://www.brindlehorses.com/brindlehos/index.htm is a GREAT website for brindle horse information. They even have a table of brindles and a table of there horses who are now on the third and fourth generation of producing brindles.

....I know this stallion's owner. Very, very nice lady. He's supposed to have a superb temperment and is turned out with a gelding buddy. What an amazing color, and not a chimera. I look forward to seeing what he produces.

Has he bred any mares? Since he's about the same color as Catch A Bird (and even share a common ancestor, figure that!) I wonder if he might ever produce a pseudo roan like CAB did! Or his own coat pattern. I sure wouldn't mind having him in my pasture even if he was a gelding!

He has been bred to mares and has produced brindling on some foals. However no roans.

He was an amazing ride for the girl who took him in the jumpers at Wellington. Waiting on a friend to go see him in KY.
