Hey Jorge, are you still looking for a photo of this guy? Ran across one in a very old copy of TB Record.

I'm sure the majority of us would really appreciate seeing it. At least those of us that know who he is.

Of course. :D Someone found one but the angle and quality of the photo was not that revealing. Thank you for keeping it in mind!

Nice looking horse, solid, looks to have a very small star, and a low white sock on his right rear, medium sock on the left rear. For the record, both socks are level--the dipped in paint look rather than the pointy sabino looking things.

Will get the image scanned and up online in the next couple of days.

Hmmm. Someone had implied he had a side or belly spot or something of note.

Apparently, that is the case (belly spot), along with some "roaning".

Once the photo is up, you can all judge, but this photo doesn't look to have any roaning or ticking. And it is a standard conformation photo, there might be a belly spot, maybe. Very hard to tell. He does look to have some dapples in his coat. They don't look dark enough to be Ben Or spots.

Given that he sired two Dominant White foals out of different mares, he had to have the mutation. However I can't see any odd white in his coat.

Nice looking stallion.

Here's the link to the photo:

After looking very closely at the orignal ad, there may be the hint of a belly spot by the elbow. Very hard to see from a side view.
