Overview:

• Inspired by hooded rats, causing extensive white coverage that leaves color only on the head/topline and legs.
• Markings should not be perfectly smooth nor overly jagged; color should be fairly rounded off.
• May have some stray spots or patches of color, but should mostly be connected.
• White must always cover the underside of the horse, including the throat.
• Mane/Tail: White where touching
• Skin: Pink where covering
• Eyes: Optional - Dark Brown | Detail Guide

Range:

• Minimum:
  • White markings follow the throat down to the chest. Besides the legs, no color should be present below the horizontal center line of the barrel.
  • Color remains on the head and may also be present on the legs, up to a little bit past the knee/hock.
• Maximum:
  • White markings extend to the cheek/jaw area, and cover the entirety of the body except for the neck and the rest of the head.
  • Unbroken color (if no other patterns are covering) must be present all the way down to the end of the withers, and should be thick enough to be clearly visible.
