| Grey, Dun, Tobiano Roan, Sabino And 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 that the mares color has been correctly identified and that she is not homozygous for black or Agouti (black points).
