    Just a helpful fact on The Silver Champagne… The horse cannot be a chestnut+silver+champagne, as silver has no effect on chestnut, only black based horses (black and bay)http://www.vgl.ucdavis.edu/services/coatcolorhorse.php
    The horse could either be:
    a+N/Ch+N/Z
    a+Ch/Ch+N/Z
    a+N/Ch+Z/Z
    a+Ch/Ch+Z/Z
    A/a+N/Ch+N/Z
    A/a+Ch/Ch+N/Z
    A/a+N/Ch+Z/Z
    A/a+Ch/Ch+Z/Z
    A/A+N/Ch+N/Z
    A/A+Ch/Ch+N/Z
    A/A+N/Ch+Z/Z
    A/A+Ch/Ch+Z/Z

    a= Black
    A/a= Black + 1 copy of the Agouti gene
    A/A= Homogemeous Agouti
    N/Ch= 1 copy of the Chamagne modifier
    Ch/Ch= 2 copies of the Champagne modifier
    N/Z= 1 copy of the Silver modifier
    Z/Z= 2 copies of the Silver modifier

    Not to be rude but I would write more about these colours instead of just showing us pictures. I’m Sure all of us would love to know more.
