I tried for years to breed an Ob, and now I finally have her. :)

I thought pangare made things lighter?

Pangare makes lighter the "soft" parts of the horse - nose, around the eyes, belly, upper legs, especially on the inside. Note the much lighter almost yellowish ring around the filly's nose where the black makes way to red, around her eye, and how her belly is lighter than the back. That's very typical pangare in action. Without pangare, her coat would be much more uniformly red-brown, the shade her upper part is.
Example of the same colour without pangare (and a little less "wild"):

But aren't those parts darker? I'm so confused

They are not so much lighter (due to shading), as the colour of these parts is shifted away from red and towards yellow.
