or maybe she's standing funny or going through a growth stage. she just looks funky.
I agree, I actually don't like her hind end, usually the hind end is higher at this age.

This isn't a racehorse, but saw this online just now and thought it was very cool/worth sharing:

She almost looks like she has a roach back. Very peculiar.RuffiantoRags wrote:\sweettalk wrote:something about the way her body flows going towards her rump just looks off. maybe it's her actual hind end itself?

Not a wholesome trottin' race, no, but a race where they sit down right on the horse!

Wow. That takes flaxen mane and tail to a whole 'nother level.

Could be gulastra plume maybe? (I can't remember if it only shows up over the Extension gene or if shows up on chestnuts too).
More pictures could betray the rabi if we can find any white hairs.

What is Painting the Sky's official Jockey Club color? White?

Chestnut?
That just makes me imagine that whoever got the filly's papers...and her photos...metaphorically threw up their hands, hauled out the Jockey Club Color Wheel Dartboard, and tossed a dart at it. Wherever the dart landed, that was going to be her 'official' registration color.

For a chestnut with dominant white, that's a very black-looking eartip. I would've thought bay, based on that pic. Huh.

The pic on Pedigree Query shows a different angle & just makes me keep thinking bay. But maybe the base coat was more suspect when she was registered...

Yeah, that mane sure looks black to me. With both of her parents being bay or whatever the Jockey Club feels inspired to call brown (damside's first chestnut is back four generations!), the cocktail of extension and agouti genes genes swirling around in there just seem too numerous to create a plain ol' chestnut under all that white.lurkey mclurker wrote:The pic on Pedigree Query shows a different angle & just makes me keep thinking bay.

Someone on PedigreeQuery is equally puzzled, as her dam's profile has a note "Dam of 2013 bay (?could be chestnut) dominant White (pinto) filly." Unless that was one of you guys.
ETA: Pied and True, wow! Very neat. Looks like a reverse bloody shoulder....so is it a somatic mutation turning "on" the grey gene? Or did someone spill the bleach?
