Draft Horses with Appaloosa Type Coloring?

I recently saw a four horse hitch and all the horses were spotted in the same way an Appaloosa horse would be, but they were all heavy drafts with minimal feathering. Lots of mane, though.

Two were semi-leopard colored while the other two were leopard. Three looked like mulberry roans, and the last looked like a blue roam.

What breed could they have been? Or are they a grade? I have heard of Appaloosa and Percheron mixes, so maybe that is what they were?

Any ideas?

Update:

... That flickr photo shows a dappled horse. There really is no sense in answering if you obviously have no idea what you're talking about.

    I've never heard of a pure draft breed with appaloosa coloring, so I'd guess they'd have to be a cross of some kind.

    EDIT:

    I KNOW what a a damn appaloosa looks like. I just figured YOU didn't know what you were talking about. THERE ARE NO DRAFTS THAT HAVE THAT COLORING. What's the point of asking a question when the answer is so obvious??? I was just trying to help you out. You seem a bit consfused.
