1) Silver Buckskin (w/ tiger eye)
2) (Metallic) Bay Dun
3) (Metallic) Silver Bay (w/ tiger eye)
4) Flaxen Red Dun
5) Silver Black
6) Black Cream/Pearl Silver Champagne (w/tiger eye.) - Just a guess off of phenotype and quick look at the parentage + offspring. Could be a few other colours, but I don't have the time to check it out atm. So not 100% certain
7) Metallic Smoky Cream Dun (Dun is debatable here. I would argue he's got the hard-to-spot NAB dun since it's in his pedigree and he has a very vague dorsal + lower face mask)
8) Silver Grulla (w/tiger eye)
9) Silver Black Pearl Champagne (w/ tiger eye)
10) Silver Black Cream/Pearl Champagne (w/ tiger eye - possibly also dun, but too diluted to tell)

And that's a start. I'm out of time, so someone else can come along and solve the rest + correct my mistakes should there be some :P If not, I'll be back later tonight to do the others :)

Keep in mind I'm not great on dilutions.
I agree with Aela, except on #7, I really don't see much indication for dun, but again, it is debatable.
Also, #9 has a blanket over his hips, so he has the Lp gene.

#11 appears to be cremello champagne.
#12 appears to also be cremello champagne.
#13 appears to be perlino.
#14 I'm not sure about this one, it appears to be one cream on champagne, but her parents both appear to be double cream, so I would say perlino champagne with silver.
#15 metallic bay dun.
#16 metallic buckskin.
#17 appears to also have flaxen (the white-washed legs are a good indication), metallic flaxen palomino.
#18 metallic buckskin pangare. Or metallic mealy buckskin.
#19 metallic buckskin.

I may be a bit off with the dilutions. Also on those bright whites I might have missed metallics.
