That depends on your definition of tri-color. Most people mean bay and white, and yes, there are plenty of bay and white TBs.

Oh sure, there are bay horses with leg markings and face markings, but has anyone seen a true, tri-colored horse? I would consider a horse a true tri-color if white passes the hocks and knees. I only know two purebred tri-colored thoroughbreds to exist, and they are true tri-colors.

Any pictures of some horses you would consider tri-colored would be great. :)
