Pocos Van Gogh

Pocos Van Gogh is a 1990 Brown stallion registered with both the AQHA (#2907119) and National Foundation Quarter Horse Association (#F03540), in which he is classed as 99% foundation bred, with 45% line breeding to Poco Bueno. His owners have been working with "Vinnie" on collection, and plan on shipping semen to make it easier to breed to him. For stud fees and breeding arrangements, contact his owners: Tim and Camille Connelly, 6665 Rickreall Rd., Independence, OR 97351 USA, e-mail: [email protected]

When I first saw pictures of "Vinnie", I thought he might be the color Brenda's Baybe's unnamed foal would have shed out to be. In the photo of her on the right, I felt her gray areas would have shed out dark / black, and the buff areas would have shed out brown, and that the pattern thus would have been very hard to see on her when she shed out her foal coat. I figured her to be brindle on black or brown, and that is what "Vinnie" appears to me to be - brindle on brown. Also, there are reports of brindle in both dogs and cattle in which the brindle streaks are so wide and in such number as to make the animal appear almost solid colored, which also might be what is happening in "Vinnie's" case. Thus, even though Pocos Van Gogh's pattern is not as evident as Dunbar's Gold, I think there is a good chance "Vinnie" probably is a brindle carrier. However, the dapple pattern can also break up coats into streaked and splotched patterns, so for now I must class him as indeterminate, but am eagerly waiting to gather more data on any foals he produces.
