Bay horse with a white splash in his tail

I was just watching the Aintree races and he is in the hmmm Foxhunters Chase? O rsomething. Anyway it is about midway down his tailbone which is odd. I don't know if it is natural or not. Anyone ever see this guy before?

IMO its an injury and the hair grew back in white. Probably got it caught in a door.

Could be. It's an awfully big patch of white though. I wish they showed him more than just that little bit.
