The Wonderous Variety of Horse Markings
This is Fools Gold, a beautiful Quarter Horse who displays some lovely brindling.

Two ponies (who could almost be twins!) showing their wide blaze markings. Notice, too, the right ones white patch in his mane.

A beautiful black horse, showing tobiano patterns. Notice how his socks have points on the top? A clear indicator for tobiano genes.
Another Tobiano horse, this one showing a liver chestnut base coat with white markings over the top. Again, notice his blue eyes.
RHA Sweet Saphira
95.41% Partbred Palomino Tobiano Arabian filly by Rhevelation
This is a stunning Tobiano filly, who also has pale eyes, also known as ‘wall eyes’. This is caused by a recessive gene, and is often seen on horses with large white facial markings, like this girl has.
Blue Roan Tobiano
A blue roan Tobiano is a rare colouring indeed! The roan indicator acts on a variety of base coats, and this stunning example has some interesting patterning, too.
A lovely bay, showing minimal tobiano markings over a brown base coat.
This is a fantastic horse colouring! He’s a red roan, almost certainly with Rabicano lightening on his coat, along with a white face and 3 white stockings.

these markings are gorgeous.
This lovely bay shows off his Birdcatcher spots, named for the thoroughbred who first displayed them (on record).
