Who would win: leucism zebra or quagga?

The quagga was/is a type of zebra that gave up halfway going backwards. That is to say, only its front half has the zebra stripes, whereas its back half is a horse.


The quagga became extinct in the 1880s, but zebras have now been bred to look like it, so at least quasi-quaggas can be found on Earth today. But wait: a challenger appears!
Due to leucism, a pigmentary condition often confused with albinism, this zebra is like the quagga in reverse. It's like you have enough for a full horse and a full zebra, but spread across two animals. Maybe they're both pantomime horses whose operators mixed up their costumes. Other examples of leucism include this toucan:
"Kick A Ginger Day is NOT funny" - this toucan
And this peacock:

"Remember the name you all had for me when I was at internal affairs? What was it, Gordon?" - this peacock

I think the leucism zebra would win, because it has a more ostentatious mohawk. What do YOUM think? Let me know down in the comments.
