Oooh! If memory serves me correctly, that's a Blagdon in that photo!

Shannon_Clover... as a rule, black and white is piebald. ANY other colour and white is skewbald. I LOVE blue and white (dark grey and white)!

Look for pictures on here of Iron Maiden's horse Mrs.P. She's a lovely blue and white mare!

Here is Mrs P!

In this picture she is doing half pass :cool:

OK, actually it's supposed to be a 20 metre circle in a Prelim test :o

The sad thing is that blue & whites like her go white eventually :( This is her as a 3yo I think - anyway, it's before I got her. You can see how she's bleaching out.
