Grulla but from where?

Post by Aliw1995 »

AWE Royal Rascal


he's clearly grulla, but his parents (bred by me) don't appear to carry dun. I have a suspicion that his dam may have been a minimally expressed grulla. Opinions?

Most definitely from dam. If the horse isn't BLACK-black, then there is probably an expression of dun happening (unless cream, pearl or champagne is the culprit).

Also the sire, Royal Fantasy appears to be carrying pangare as well, so don't be surprised if your colt throws a pangare foal later on.

The grandsire, Wonderful Celebration is a non-dun black (for comparison), so the dun came through the granddame line.
