  • Arabian Coat Color Patterns
    Arabian Coat Color Patterns Copyright 2011 Brenda Wahler In the Arabian breed, there are three unusual coat colors or patterns that occur in some purebred horses. The first is sabino, the only white spotting pattern seen in purebred Arabians, characterized by bold white face and leg markings, and, in some cases, body spotting. The second pattern is rabicano, a roan-like intermixture of white and dark hairs. Both sabino and rabicano horses are often registered by their base coat color, with white patterns noted as markings, but some extensively marked individuals have been registered as “roan,” even though true roan is a separate coat color. The third unusual coat color is dominant white, a mutation characterized by a predominantly white hair coat and pink skin, present at birth. All Arabians in the United States currently known to be dominant white trace to a single stallion, foaled in 1996, verified to be the offspring of his registered Arabian parents, both of whom were solid-colored. It is difficult to know how many Arabians have these unusual colors as they are often not searchable in registration records. For many years, Arabians with dominant white, body spots, or simply “too much white” were discouraged from registration, and white body markings were penalized in halter classes. The exclusion of boldly-marked “cropout” horses was also common in other registries, leading to the formation of a number of color breed associations. However, when parentage verification became possible, horses born with “too much” white could be confirmed as the offspring of their stated parents, and breed registries generally relaxed their rules or policies that previously excluded such animals.

Abstract: The American Paint Horse Association (APHA) officially records pedigree and performance information for their breed; these registered stock-type horses are valued for utility in work on the farm and ranch and as pleasure horses. As the name of the breed implies, the breed is also valued for attractive white spotting patterns on the coat.

  • OLWS) Can Occur in Foals That Are Born to Paint Horses of Overo Lineage
    An investigation in to the genetic disorder, overo lethal white syndrome By David Howard Overo lethal white syndrome (OLWS) can occur in foals that are born to paint horses of overo lineage. Overo horses (Fig 1.) are characterised by a dark coat colour with jagged and irregular white shapes and markings. The overo can be broken down in to four distinct subtypes; frame, calico, splashed white and sabino. Breeds that have been found to be carriers of the syndrome include ‘overos, tobianos, toveros, Solid-colored Horses, crop-out Quarter Horses and Pintos’ (Vrotsos & Santschi : 1998). The affected foals are born solid white in colour or have a very high covering of solid white coat colour. Due to a genetic abnormality the foal fails to develop a fully functioning digestive tract with ‘an absence of ganglion cells and their intrinsic nerve fibres and proliferation of extrinsic nerve fibres’ (Hudson & Dunlop : 2005). There is currently no known treatment or cure for this syndrome and it will ultimately lead to death by ‘... atresia of the caudal intestine due to aganglionosis’ (Anon : 1999), within a few days of parturition. The syndrome is similar to one found in rodents and Hirschsprung disease in humans. The birth of a solid white foal (Fig 2.) was reported in an article by Lightbody (2002). The gestation and parturition occurred without problem and the foal suckled naturally from the dam after two hours. The first sign of an irregularity was that the foal failed to pass the meconium. Within 16 hours the foal had started to show signs of colic and after 24 hours the foal was showing increasing signs of distress.

Assessing Color and Breed In model horse competitions, the goal is to faithfully recreate the equestrian world in miniature. It is what exhibitors strive to do and what judges consider when evaluating a table of entries. One aspect of that evaluation is whether the color of the model is realistic. In order to assess this, a judge must be able to distinguish between visually similar (but often geneti- cally distinct) colors and patterns and determine whether or not the color depicted on the model is suitable for the breed the entrant has assigned. This task is complicated by the fact that many participants—who are at heart collectors as well as competitors—are attracted to pieces that are unique or unusual. So how does a judge determine which colors are legitimate for a particular breed and which are questionable or outright unrealistic? When it comes to the range of colors within each breed, there are three basic considerations. Breeds are limited by the genes present in the population (what is possible), by any restrictions placed by their registry (what is permissible), and by what is counted as a fault in breed competitions (what is penalized).
