Yes, although I have a few more stories to judge. Someone may "de-throne" them :lol:

Back to colours. do you think I labeled this guy correctly?

Alright :)
Can't tell you that now! You'll see in a few minutes (; :lol:
I think so, again, I might not be right.
I've got some color correction for you. :)

Firstly, Soulless General is correct.

Secondly, Gold Rolex is actually Silver Classic Champage, not Amber Cream. If you look at her lower legs, they match her main body color to closely for her to be bay-based. Then if you look at her foal picture she has a mane and tail color that is very typical of silver foals, especially that reddish line underneath the mane. The silver is affecting her entire body, turning it uniformly gold, which means that she is black-based. Her sire was a cream-pearl dilute, so your mare carries either pearl or cream. I don't know the champagne baby pictures well enough to be able to tell which she is carrying.

Third, the other two are Silver Classic Cream Pearl. This is easier to determine on Red Silver - she is a double-dilute but her mother did not have cream. Therefore her mother must have carried pearl and the foal received cream from the sire. We know they are both black-based because of the dapples covering their body - they are much too light for the dapples to be caused by sooty and they are not grey, so the only other place the dapples could have originated is the silver dapple gene which will only affect the body of a black horse.

Okay thank you, I'll remember that. I honestly thought she was Amber Cream :lol:

Thank you!

Glad to know I don't fail horribly at some colours. :lol:

Yeah, you're right! I should have noticed the mane and tail colour. Huh, never thought of that, I just really can't identify Champagne horses. That makes sense. I tried tracking her pedigree but eh, I didn't know enough, especially with the pale colour of her sire.

Yeah that makes sense too!

Thank you Silverine!
