Another fine paint job by Marquetry. Looks like her blaze forgot to fill in. ;)

Donna this is the one I told you about on HGS once and maybe gave you one photo glimpse and meant to get more but never did. She's right up the road from me.

Ive always been such a fan of Marquetry! Had the one mare by him a few years back - she ended up in FL with her new owners ...

Audrey - let me know if she does ever come up for sale! :)

Ah Marquetry, what an outstanding sire.... measured by several standards.
Alas, I don't think he was used to all his potential by color breeders.
Perhaps the best argument in favor of this opinion is that, as far I know,
he never sired a white Thoroughbred.

Nope not even when bred to a white mare. Which I guess means he was not dominant white but maybe another "sabino" (#whatever) that gives the loud white markings and sometimes patches or spots but not DW.
