The most noticeable difference between white horses and a gray horses is its nose. A true white horse would have pink on its nose, around his eyes, his ears, and in-between his legs. A gray horse would have black or gray in these areas. You might say ‘what if it has a wight nose’ well that is a marking. Horses can have many different markings like bald face, strip, snip, star, blaze, and many more. If a horse has a bald face its nose would be white. Because a bald face covers most of the face including the nose.
