Almost by chance came across this very interesting flamboyant horse
from Argentina. His name is PINTADITO (names translates: "LI'L PAINTED")

This seems like a very interesting case to study for two basic reasons:
First, his phenotype is very very loud, and,
Second, Argentineans Thoroughbred breeders are not particularly fond
on breeding flamboyant racehorses; for their traditional preferences goes just the opposite. Just browse their sire books. So, most probably, this was a "cropout" case.

Awesome find! Actually in Argentina they love flamboyant but they are breeding from a lot of enblish and american line horses and of course they didn't like loud at all!
Whatever his look is very much a minimal Dom. White type, similar to Puchilingui line. (and others but he's the only one I can think of offhand!)

At any rate it looks as though he is probably the first of his line too. I hope he is good enough to breed from, it would be interesting to see what he produced! At least for polo ponies maybe!!! Without testing it would be the only way to confirm (or deny) if he is DW or merely a flashy pinto!
