First things first:

In order to successfully link a horse you need to follow these steps:

Step 1: When you are in Full Editor & Preview if you look above the typing box you'll see a couple of codes. (16 to be exact). You'll see a code titled 'URL'. Click that. It will appear in the typing box like this:

Code: Select all

[url][/url]
Step 2: Put an '=' sign at the end of the left side 'l'. do not leave a space inbetween!

Code: Select all

[url=][/url]
Step 3: Copy paste the horses url link after the '=' :

Code: Select all

[url=https://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/2518972][/url]
Final Step: in the middle of the 2 boxes players usually put the horse's name :

Code: Select all

[url=https://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/2518972]Poison Command[/url]


Copy paste this and you will have successfully linked a horse! If you want your horse's picture to appear then instead of selecting the URL code in the first step select the horse= code and when you are copy pasting the horse's url delete the https://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/ from the https://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/2518972 so that only the number at the end will be left (2518972). Also the '=' is already provided

Code: Select all

[horse=2518972]Poison Command[/horse]

Alright, now with your horse's colour. Keep in mind that it easier to determine the colour of a horse when the horse is actually alive because the picture in the gallery is not always perfect. Another thing that helps is to at least have the sire's and the dam's photos (if they are not alive).

Anyways your horse appears to be a black roan with the dun gene and with snowflakes and an extended blanket.

So my answer is: Grullo Black Roan w/ snowflakes and an extended blanket. (And feathers if you want to include that)

Grullo is what we call black based horses with the dun gene (the one responsible for a darkening in the face and legs as well as stripes along the back, neck and legs). The roan gene is the one responsible for the white hairs you see in his coat and the snowflakes are the white dots on the horse's jawl/face and body.

I'd agree with grullo roan (grullo is black by definition, black + dun), but the blanket part is rather snowcap, meaning he had double Lp genes, which means all his foals would be spotted. We get blanket with single Lp, and it is usually marked with bigger coloured spots inside the blanket and has distinct edges, while double Lp blanket (aka snowcap) has lacy edges and small coloured dots instead.
