I was kinda hoping you'd express how hard this one was, Paul. I would never have guessed it if it wasn't for the gifted answer contained in attempt 4. I didn't know what it was!

“I…” Had she just called him fat? “I am just a different species, that’s all.”

“Well nature sure does have a sense of humour then,” Styanar said. “Shall we go inside? It’d not be a good idea for me to be spotted by others.”

I didn't think this was too hard as I know it from 3 things:-

1. Horse colour American for piebald
2. Nickname for Ford 4 cylinder engine used in Europe in things like the Cortina/Taunus
3. American car Ford Pinto.

I managed in four. Thought little of it, But checking the definition I can understand the need claim it as a potentially difficult word.

That was a bit of a guess and was not sure it would be a word, only know it from having an interest in horses :)

Thank you for yesterday's explanation. Very much a regional word then.

As with yesterday, today's successful guess felt pretty much like the only remaining choice.
