He's very striking. And with an interesting name to boot.

It's interesting that both his sire and dam are plain bays with just small stripes. Wonder where his color came from?

Wasn't Southern Phantom like that? I mean, came from parents with relatively little white? I know Bodemeister has a stocking but still.

Bodemeister has a big wide blaze as well. He has produced several flashy babies besides Southern Phantom, such as Mau the Great (out of Ender's Valentine, pictured here as a yearling)

He does have Rory's Jester up close in his pedigree. RJ was a flaxen chestnut with a blaze and stockings so maybe the color just got hidden for a couple generations.

@ New Vocations

Here's the unraced Copper Harbor. Foaled in 2010, he's a Michigan-bred son of Daylight Savings out of Dance Until Dawn (Green Dancer). Copper Harbor and owner Kelly Stalter are new ambassadors for New Vocations. He's also a member of the US Pony Club.

@ Umazora Blog

Here's Shironii, warming up before his run in the Umada Stakes. Really good photo with all the pink blossoms, his white coat mottled with chestnut, the silks, and his pretty blue eye.

Not anything flashy, but... this is about as textbook (and pretty) shade of blood bay you'll ever see, I reckon. :mrgreen: Full brother to Oju Chosan (JPN), this is Koki Chosan (Stay Gold x Shadow Silhouette).

Hau Nani won again last weekend. Those white Japanese horses sure can run.

In case it hasn't been said before, "hau nani" is Hawaiian for "beautiful snow". She's adorable in the bottom pic.

They are bred to race unlike most of the white Thoroughbreds in the US, which are just bred to be white. The Patchen Wilkes white horses are bred to race but their pedigrees aren't on the levels of that Japanese family of white horses.
