Most white appearing horses are actually grey horses that have completed the greying process. The are very light creme colored horses called Cremello, but they are actually an off-white. The closest you will get to a pure white horse is a maximun white sabino. This is actually a pinto pattern where the white part of the pattern covers nearly all of the colored part of the horses coat. The horse may hvae a few freckles of color on its ears or elsewhere, but will look solid white.
