I agree three!
I am beginning to give serious thought (no, srsly,i iz)to Tobiano and Sabino interacting in some very strange ways.
This is just one of them.....

She reminds me a bit of Kims colt Sterling as he has similar roaning on some of his white markings.
Is that Ruby?

Agree totally Danni.

RMT has some photos of a mini with several tobi wanna be spots that are very roany.

That last one is not as solid as it appears, its completely roaning. They were taken with a camera phone so excuse the quality.

She is also the last one on the right here

I had a black stallion, by a Tobiano (and I don't think any other pattern, none evident, anyway...) and the only white on him was a big "roan" splash on one side.
Now, I have a black mare whose only white is a "roan" splash on her face, on one side, and she is by a solid (Rabbit, although Rabbit does "hide" Splash, it's in there somewhere) o/o an Appy mare with no random white.
Rabbit has Splash way back (like a proper Pinto, then after that it has only been blue eyes and the occasional star) and the Appy I can go back five generations on with no leg or face white....so...???

I wonder if the roan thing is just another separate modifier and it's just often the tobiano that brings it out? But can show on it's own now and then too??

[quote]I have wondered if, when homozygous, tobiano might not cause roaning...[/quote]

No, it couldnt be homozygous as my colt that was mentioned...Sterling.....has a solid silver black dam. It does seem to be genetically dominant tho as a large percentage of the stallion, do have a patch of roaning around the hip area the same as the stallion. My palomino and white tobiano stallion who has no roaning, has produced a black filly with white feet and one roan patch, out of a silver black mare.
