Are these white Mawari a type of Dominant white? I've not seen it discussed specifically but from pictures of other Dominant White horses, specifically thoroughbreds, it looks as if the white Marwaris are a type of Dominant White. The give away is the brown eyes, and black spotting. It is interesting in that this type of white patterning has been proven to spontaneously appear in some breeds independent of each other and are slightly different and occur in a slightly different local in the genes. Which also means that the white Mawari are most likely pure blooded. It would be interesting to get a large number of Marwari tested to see how they are related and which are more 'pure' genetically.
He's so gorgeus!
