Double dilute

I can see double dilute, but I can't work out if she's smoky cream/brown with silver or sooty cremello?

You linked to the wrong horse, but I found it. Silver Grullo Cream is what I'll dub her. Grullo + 2x cream + silver.

D'oh, I used the paddock ID, not the horse ID *headdesk*

Thanks though, for the answer and for looking

This is the actual horse

I agree with Syn. Black + 2 Cream + Silver + Dun. Though I'd call it Silver Smoky Cream Dun. But I may be wrong.

I don't think there's an official name for that color, hehe. I just figured Silver Grullo Cream because black + dun = grullo, 1x cream + grullo = smoky grullo (instead of smoky black), 2x cream + grullo = grullo cream (instead of smoky cream). But it doesn't really matter as long as it gets the idea across!
