This is a discussion on What pinto colourings is Hope? within the Horse Colors and Genetics forums, part of the Horse Breeds, Breeding, and Genetics category
This is the beautiful hope. Im not too good with colours so I figured someone could help :P
She has a patch of colour over her ears and face, and a small patch over her bum/tail.
Splash? Sabino?
All of the "major" white patterning genes are present here. Tobiano, sabino, splash and frame. There isn't much indicator of all of them, because there is so much white, but this is pretty typical expression of all four together.
I tend towards being a touch verbose, so that is how I would word it should I feel the need to explain exactly what she is. Otherwise, I would say she is a "chestnut and white pinto" and then name the patterns she has if people ask.
And whatever color she is, I hope she gets a little more weight on her, she is a bit ribby, & it really shows up on a light colored horse.She looks to be a nice mare.
