Horses with Pastern Leg Markings

A look at horses with pastern markings around the world and on a variety of different breeds.

Often difficult to distinguish from the coronet marking, the pastern takes up where it leaves off. The white mark extends more than an inch above the hoof over the pastern but stops at or below the fetlock joint.
