alone are alot rarer that people believe them to be - A true Tobiano [and only Tobiano] carrier will have a completely solid/base coloured head from the poll to throatlatch and forward, regardless of the degree ofexpression. A horse with a Tobiano body marking that in addition has any kind of white facial marking almost always has inherited an additional white pattern gene from its' parents. In most cases it will likely be the Sabino Overo gene, and in most cases the Sabino Overo gene will be in its' most minimal of expressions. However, there are Tobiano + Sabino Overos' out there that carry moderate to maximal expressions of the Sabino Overo gene in addition to the Tobiano, they are just a little harder to identify if you're not sure what to look for! {If you'd like to learn more about identifying combination white pattern genes then you should most definitely revisit this website in a bit as I am right now working on an equine colour genetics reference site!] Angel is one of these 'sometimes hard to spot' Tobiano + Sabino Overos - Note the white facial markings covering nostril, lips and chin area, and white travelling across the throatlatch - this marking extends under the jawline, almost meeting the facial marking/s, and in addition, Angel has the additional Sabino Overo indicator of what's sometimes referred to as 'bleeding' throughout her entire coat - A true Tobiano has very crisp, clean edges to their very circular appearing body markings, while a Tobiano + Sabino Overo has an interplay of solid/base coloured and white hairs at the marking edges, giving a more softened, feathered edge to the white pattern markings - The white pattern/hairs "bleed" into the solid base coloured hairs. And finally, while hard to see in the photos, Angel also has minimal white ticking through her solid flank shield markings, which is yet another characteristic of the Sabino Overo gene - All of which makes Angel a fantastic colour asset!
