I know its not expected of the vast majority of equine fans to be even vaguely educated in horse colours and genetics. With only 1 known and 1 potentially lethal coat marking. Even the breeders can't be expected to know.

Sorry Patchy White is a Buckskin (no dun's in Connemara or Thoroughbred)
The Mare I'm using isn't a pure breed, she's a beautiful animal her only visual fault is slightly pigeon toed at the front, (I notice it but when she was shown locally the judge & assistant for her class didn't) She moves...

its to go over a 14.2hh Cremello (e/e A/A Cr/Cr) I'm thinking of breeding for a...
I'm looking for dun stallions (only found one) standing in the UK
