What colour is this gal?

I'm normally decent at identifying horse colours but I struggle with dilutes. Thank you for your help in advance : )

I think she's a golden champagne appaloosa, based on the freckles on her nose and the fact that her mane and tail are lighter than her body (meaning she's red based). This is most noticable when she's around 1-2 years old, before the varnish roan sets in. I'm not great with appaloosa patterns, but... uhm... she has some. The fact that we can see them means she has the LP switch gene (which is the culprit for the varnish roan), but the sharp lines of the pattern tells us she only has one copy of it.
So: She's red with one champagne gene, one LP switch gene and some really cute appaloosa patterning.
There could of course be something else that I missed, but I think this is it.
Also, good job with making her a champion! The title suits her :)
