Black belly, white face, solve this with grace; prefix to scar, the suffix bled in a race.

This might be a reference to Sophia Grace & Rosie's Royal Adventure: Magic Duck. The word solve sounds like Sophia and the line also contains the word grace; the name Rosie sounds like roses, which are red (like scars and blood).
