Flaxen chestnut with tigereye.
The grandmother on the dam's side was chestnut and so was the great great grandmother on her sire's side. That means that both of her parents have only one copy of the extension gene. Ee x Ee. It was a 25% chance of her being chestnut. She got both the recessive genes (ee).
