White

I got a question about W gene. I know WW is impossible, and W+ is heterozygote which gives possibility of non-white foal. But what about WRn, WSb and WT? Is there a chance that foal will get only Rn, Sb or T? Or it will always be inherited in a package?

You can get patterns without white through inheritance, a WRn parent can only pass on either W or Rn but not both.

That's what I thought, but I needed to be sure. Genetic guide kinda mislead me, cause it's written WRn, WSb and WT in the description for White gene. Anyway, thanks :)

It's most likely written that way because of white's dominance masking other genes, so you'll always have a white horse but you might have roan hidden underneath, but I agree it can be a little confusing.
