Very distinctive head shot!
I had to double check that she was a TB.

Since all the images come from real photos (mostly taken by me at the track), the answer is - however many ways a horse can hold its head! Every headshot is a different image from the past 15 years of photography. Sometimes I pay other photographers to "donate" their work to us too so that it's not just horses I've seen, but horses in other places as well.Ronnie Dee wrote: ↑2 years ago There seems to be a few different head shot "poses". How many are there? Do they have specific pose names?

Well, I don't see a roan when I'm watching theese headshots. A roan has a base color (bay, chestnut, black...) on the head and legs, and the rest of the body is gray/white hairs mixed.Ronnie Dee wrote: ↑2 years agoI also looked at her (roan) dam:
And her (roan) grand dam:
The coloring of the 3 generations of roans looks considerably different. But when I looked at RL roan images, I saw even more variance.
I *believe* in TBs roan refers to red based grey? I’m not 100% sure on that thoughFlizan Hambletonian wrote: ↑2 years agoWell, I don't see a roan when I'm watching theese headshots.

I know I've shown him earlier, but this is my horse. A roan standardbred trotter.
Yes, a roan can be gray as base color. But it's more common to be bay, chestnut or black.
The Jockey Club refers to grey on a red base (chestnut or classic bay) as "roan". However, because of how grey works, the red pigment can grey first, resulting in a steel grey, which is what TJC refers to as "grey". Hence why all grey horses are registered as "grey or roan".Rochelle Zahacy wrote: ↑2 years agoI *believe* in TBs roan refers to red based grey?
