| Grey Tobiano Roan Sabino Other Patterns of white |
These "colors" are actually patterns of white (grey is
progressive) and are not "true" horse colors. First you must identify the "
base" color of the horse. For example a black and white tobiano would be black.
A grey that was born sorrel, would be sorrel an so on. |

| Smutty Pangare' Sooty Shade |
These effects can change the visual color of the horse (from light sorrel to liver chestnut). A sorrel horse is genetically the same color as a liver chestnut - but just a different shade. If a mare is a dark shade, she should pass that darkness onto her offspring at least 50% of the time. |

*We are assuming:
| The mares color has been correctly identified |
| The mare is not homozygous for black, champagne, silver dapple or Agouti (black points) |
| Sorrels and sorrel based horses do not carry the hidden silver dapple gene (very rare) |
| Black mares are not smoky blacks (carry the dilute creme gene without expression) |
