Ask on the forum on this site, they might have an answer

Its probably some form of dapple grey but its very unusual, especially the dark circles around her eyes and dark muzzle. Does she have them all over her body and legs or just her neck and shoulders, and are they both sides? |

| Do the black spots have hair on? Only asking because I was at a show on Sunday and there was a purebred arab there with black spots. I spoke to the owner and she told me that they were actually bald patches showing the black skin through. I would post a pic but as it's not my horse I'm not sure if its allowed? |

| Well, i've been told its probably been caused by a fungal infection at some point (i.e ringworm) a lady showed me a pic of her mare who looks identical, the exact same black spots and this is what her vet told her!! |
