CLG Rumor Has It

CLG Rumor Has It's dam Whisper of Living Legend was the most recent featured historical pony so I decided to keep going with the family. Rumor was born in 2018 and her sire is the chestnut splashed white Ken. I sometimes think about her short lived half sister Trinity of Legend's Whisper when I see her.

Rumor is a chestnut like her sire and like her dam's base color. With her parents colors she only could have been chestnut or palomino. She's one of the 7 foals of her dam that didn't inherit Whisper's cream dilution.

Rumor's sire Ken appears to have two copies of agouti, based on the fact he's never sired a black foal. Ken would have passed one copy of agouti on to Rumor. Her foal this year is black so that tells us she only has one copy of agouti.

Her sire is a splashed white and her dam is a tobiano and Rumor appears to have inherited both of them. In the past she would have been called a tovero but that term has fallen out of favor due to the sheer number of "overo" patterns, currently over 40. The more descriptive tobiano splashed white is a better way to explain her pinto pattern. Rumor has one blue eye and it likely is the result of her having splashed white 1.
