  • @amongotherthings17 true xD

  • @maxiloveslife no dip sherloc they were perpousfully bred for it. lol

  • he/she looks like heS (who cares xD) born to be a racehorse. I think thoroughbreds ARE born to compeed in races. 

  • @horseintheirishside eh sad that you cant have one with perfect genetics but they sure are gorgeous no matter what ^.^ maybe he will grow to be a great little racer

  • can i have him, oh he is just the cutest thing ever!

  • A white thoroughbred is normally 1 in a million. Over here in Aus there was a white filly born on one of the studs. She went on to race under the name of Here Comes the Bride. I don't know if she died but she couldn't gallop to save herself! It can happen if you have too much line breeding going on there in the pedigree, which is not necessarily albino type in the eye.

    If I see a white thoroughbred I usually think its a bag of good genetics gone wrong! :)

    Read Frederico Tesios book.

  • Is that foal cremello?

  • @professorsherman What you perhaps mean is that the white on horses not carrying lethal white can vary in proportions, from no white to all white so it appears as though it is a true white horse. But there is no white gene and that pattern I just explained happens to not exist in Thoroughbreds so this foal has to be a cremello or possibly a very young grey with a wide face marking to his muzzle.

  • @professorsherman It's known as lethal white as it ALWAYS kills the foal because the digestive system does not work. They die within 72 hours. It is carried on the frame gene usually seen in overo patterns. This fella is not white, it is cremello. If you stood him next to a complete grey you would see he's actually cream coloured but very very pale. It's where a chestnut gene has 2 cream genes on it (1 creates palomino).

  • @AlyAnn911 I know right? I'm so used to greys, who are born darker (bay, black, my trainer's horse was born chestnut) but I think it's a cremello. I don't know though, genetics confuse me.
