horses with unique coloring/facial markings

Been digging through JBIS and Ramses Barrows (I hope this is him) has a patch on his right shoulder. Ramses Barrows is a USA-bred son of Curlin o/o GSW Devious Intent (Dixie Union).

The gray outrunning him is Foggy Night, who's by Tapit o/o Champagne d'Oro (Medaglia d'Oro).

Those are a couple of blue-blooded boys there, and the grey definitely looks like a Tapit.

Are they two-year-olds, or older?
Thanks for the cool photo.

Ramses Barrows is 4 and Foggy Night is 5.

Looks like Foggy Night has soundness issues though, as he has raced since he was 2 but only has made 7 starts. Whenever he starts he has a minimum of a 3 to 9 month break before he races again. He raced in Feb. 2018 was off 9 months, raced in Nov. 2018 and was off 9 months again before returning in Aug. 2019.
He does have 4 wins from 7 starts though.

A bit more context might help. Great-looking animal, and I feel like I SHOULD remember.

I've seen the name Blue Gazi pop up in colored pedigrees before I think...

I wonder if Livingston has any pics of him.

I will take ALL of these pretty ponies.

Here's some food for thought. A popular topic on this forum is the origins of the overo, "sabino", palomino, etc genes in the modern thoroughbred. We've talked about Akhal-Tekes and whether a breed founding sire was actually the breed they claimed he was and what what means for color. We've even discussed the probability of someone passing off a standardbred as a thoroughbred.

Allanglo's website mentions the following horse, reported to be a thoroughbred owned by King George VII, named King of Trumps. His lone record of existence (AFAIK) is in an oil painting that hangs in the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool, England. The painting is from the 1700s. You can see a color photo on the PQ link.
