Bay with white hairs throughout

Postby Cree » Sun Apr 29, 2012 10:19 pm

Hi
Just wanted to share this mare from Hastings Park.
Her registered name is P S Touch Down.

http://www.pedigreequery.com/p+s+touch+down

She's a bay with white hairs throughout her coat, as she has gotten older more of the white hairs have shown up. Kind of neat.
Not a great photo, but you can see the white hairs on her hind end in this picture:

My mare I'llmakeyoufamous has white hairs throughout. Looks strange at first, almost like she is muddy or something but it's the widespread white in patches. I wondered if she might go grey. How do they identify young ones as roan or gray in such situations?

Run the race - the one that's really worth winning.

Since your mare doesn't have a gray parent or a gray grandparent (that might allow that maybe a parent was registered the wrong color), she can't be a gray.
