its not really a marker for a Het bloodred, that I know of. Some bloodreds can have a wash of red over the belly instead of being pure white. Motleys can be the same. i have a couple motleys that have a wash of a coppery brown to their plain(no checker) bellies.

Some of the Het for bloodreds that I have produced have the checkers "pushed to the side", and have a wash of coloring where the white should be. I know the pushed to the side checkering is an indicator (not fool proof) of Het bloodred, but not sure about the wash of colors. Actually, thinking of it, since I have motleys with it(therefore it runs in motley as well), I'd have to say its not.
hope this helps
