Our yearling colt.

He will be the dark grey that is on the front of his face once his coat comes in over the summer. He is very light from his first clip after winter.

Thanks all,

they are all so lovely! And so shiny and healthy and happy looking too.

I am excited to see how Raffles' coat changes over time after seeing all these. I always wanted a silver dapple horse from when I was little!
 
Here are my two silvers...Sahara last year and this year

Here's my silver dapple filly. She turned 4 years old in March. I bought her in May at the Mini horse sale in Greencastle, Pa. She looks almost black from a distance and where it would be flaxen in her mane its a dirty blonde color.

Taken in May a couple days after I got her - she's clipped in this picture.

This is her at the end of May, a couple weeks later at her first show with me.

This pic was taken at the same show in her halter class.

I've noticed now that she has started to roan out across her back and sides - not sure if its sabino or not - don't have any pics of her now tho.

Ok, well, here is my silver dapple Appy at 19 years old and then back when he was about 8 years old (sorry that pic is not great- was taken from old video) Then one of his sons, born this year that is silver dapple, but his hair is much lighter now.

This is Dancer, our Silver Dapple mare. We call her our Boomarang mare as we have

sold her twice and bought her back both times. The last time we got her back we decided

if she was going to stay here she needed a job. She now drives jumps and does obstacle with

our Grandchildren. Our six year old grand daughter drove her at the last show alone.

Here she is as a weanling , almost no dapples

She waited until after she was 3 to really dapple out. We were nearly blinded the first time we clipped her that year.

Guess she is a keeper.
