The markings remind me of a horse named Tri Chrome, who ran back in the early '90s.

Here is his sibling :)

Bit of trivia here :)
Mette Campbell his breeder also owns Cockney Rebel who stands at the National Stud at Newmarket. He is named after the seventies rock group and Mette is married to the groups drummer (think he is the drummer?)
Mette is also famous for the interview with John Lennon and Yoko Ono when they were in bed !

Now you throw in various grullas....then try mixing in Ap...and you know what I was contending with my Apps. I'd breed a mare, shut my eyes and dream. And my best mare was a grulla, blanket, spots and becoming a leopard.
