Cream? Champagne? Tiger Eye?

Hi guys,
I'm trying breed a nice bright 'snow white' colour into my future Boulonnais so my questions are:

What is her colouring?

What colours should I breed to to improve the 'whiteness'?

And what colours should I avoid?

It's possible that Grey and/or Silver may be introduced since I am also trying for a Grey line.

(I wasn't sure if the breeding questions should be posted in the gameplay section, sorry)

Thanks,
Killeroo

Your filly is Gold Cream Champagne
= Red + 1x Cream + Champagne

To improve whiteness you can "add" one more copy of cream. Cremello, Perlino and Smoky Cream Champagnes tend to be very light. It would be quite easy to achieve because you already have both Cream and Champagne in your lines.

You could also try introducing Pearl. Cream + Pearl + Champagne combos are also very light.

If you want to experiment with shades of these colours - to get an even lighter breed - there are some extremely light NAB studs in the market, such as this guy http://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/130865 and his pedigree/progeny
