Chubari spots, a result (I believe) of mutation, not heritage. I *think* it's dominant though, so in theory you could get spotty TBs registered as there wouldn't be any crossbreeding. However, as the main coat color they appear with is gray (but less frequently chesnut or light bays) the spots could disappear at any moment.

Oo. I'm going to write that one down. I'll never remember it otherwise.
 
he looks like an appie to me.
alot of appies are crossed with tb's i know most of my mares history is tb

could have tb parents????? could be somewhere in the line it has appie and this gene had been passed on to make this one look like appie? .... i doubt it but is possible
also can be a mutation of the genes i read that somewhere once and will try find the link for it. x
would not pay that much for him though although he is nice. mine is leopard spot too with good blood line (so i have been told) and i didnt pay 25% of what he is up for .

and big thanks to Nikaportia for the mention! and the link we are one of a few people to be breeding coloured Tbs there are more a friend who also comes on H&H breeds Appy XTbs as sports horses but it is perfectly possible to add and colour patten you like as Nikki says the TB is man made and continues to be to ths day.
we are adding the Tobiano gene as its dominant and predicatable but the new dominant white gene is interesting as well and the first white in the UK to win a race was just yesterday.

Can anyone shed any light on this, SHAPS ( spotted horse & pony soc now no longer in existance) had an Appy in training I think with John Jo O Neil called Capital Leo reg on Whetherbys NTR. They ran out of money before he raced but he was/is a lepord spot
 
You are very welcome. I always think your boy is lovely :)

I'd love a coloured one to go with the grey I already have. You can't beat a TB.

Do I get one sent in the post for mentioning you? :p

How big is your letter box? and a big thank you I am glad you like our boy XXX the racer or the 2 stallions?

. . . . and if you look at the site, the "thoroughbred" coloured stallion is NOT full TB, only 3/4TB, so they are just as guilty as the people in America!!!!!

I get sick to death of people announcing that their horses are a particular breed when they, in reality, cross-breeds. It happens a lot with Arabs as well. It is NOT an arab/TB/whatever unless it is 100% pure-bred.
 
I do agree to an extend that just because a horse is eligible to race and is registered with the NTR it doesn't mean it is a tb (it just means it has enough pure blood to be registered and race).

Same with the people who have warmbloods calling their crossbreeds breeds! I was talking to someone last week who insisted her KWPN gelding was purebred. I looked him up and each grandparent was in a different registry.

Do you mean Captian Leo?

but surely that can be put to any breed then? i have an appaloosa but if you go back a few years she has tb arab morgan and other appies in her doe that mean she is not an appie.?

i may have missed the point and i probs have because i am having a really dense day and not read it properly lol

it is not a pure bred no but nothing rarely is anymore most are crossed with something else somewhere along the line xxx

Angrove has never suggested anything other than this :confused: She has always been very upfront with how she came to have a tobiano TB.

Perhaps, however that doesn't mean that there aren't fully pedigreed TBs of strange and unique colouring. Genetics have moved on a long way since the old saying " there is no such thing as a white horse" which is now in fact not the case. Spots and markings, splash and frame, have always been in some TB genetic bloodlines. We're just a little more aware of it now and some of the weird coloured TBs who have shown up in the past few decades are full pedigreed TBs, in the same way as those from 100 years ago were also full bloods :)
