False Leopard is a lightening of the coat visible on the horse's barrel, similar to Roan, but with spots "cut out" of it.
False Leopard spots can vary in both size and randomness; spots can optionally present in rows, be uniformly sized, or in other patterns that are more deliberate-looking than Leopard.
It may cause a light, grayish appearance compared to the base color or turn the coat nearly (but not quite) white.
Lightening caused by False Leopard should blend evenly and gradually into the coat.
Unless Blanched is present, False Leopard will not affect the legs or head (3rd example above shows False Leopard and Blanched).

Genotype: Fl_
Locus:  Blanched, False Leopard

• Coat: False Leopard is a white marking.

Range (without Blanched):

• Maximum: Bold whitening of the coat on the body with visible "spots" cut out.

Range (with Blanched):

• Will create spots in Blanched markings.

Interactions:

• Blanched: When Blanched and False Leopard are both present, False Leopard creates holes in Blanched markings rather than creating new lightened areas.
• Roan: When False Leopard and Roan are both present, Roan is still visible "Under" False Leopard, rather than the base coat.
• White Markings: False Leopard cannot cause spots in or interact with other white markings.
