First might be smoky black champagne? don't quote me on that, I'm probably wrong
Second appears to be gold champagne roan varnish
Third is gold champagne
Fourth might also be smoky black champagne
Fifth looks like silver dapple champagne (with cream?)
Sixth is another gold champagne with sooty dapple
I'll be honest, I have no idea what's going on with the seventh one
Eighth appears to have an accurate color description already, as does the ninth

Thank you!

I don't believe horses number 3 and 6 are champagne though, as I don't see the dark speckles. Um. Can a champagne horse have no visible speckles?..
(P.S. So I had thought about them a bit more, and came to the conclusion that 3 may be a cream-pearl (pearl is from her sire, cream is from her palomino dam), and 6 may be a double pearl, but that’s all what I can say)

Same. I'm so confused

Well, I just wanted someone to confirm it, 'cause they are both related to 7 and I thought I might be wrong about them too.

I'm still uncertain about 1, 3, 4, 6 and 7, but at least 2 and 5 are solved. Thank you once again

I think three still has speckles, you just need to look a little more closely (they're pretty light) but I can double check

Hanna is Classic Cream - black + champagne + 1x cream. She also has one copy of the tiger eye gene.

Snowy Sand is Gold Roan - chestnut + champagne + roan. She also has two copies of Lp giving her a snowcap and intense snowflakes. She may have flaxen but it's hard to tell since her earliest picture already showed color shifting from the Lp.

Passerine is Smoky Black Pearl - black + 1x cream + 1x pearl. She also has double tiger eye.

Lua is Amber Cream - bay + champagne + 1x cream. She has a single tiger eye gene.

3360309 is Silver Classic Champagne - black + silver + champagne. He has at least one tiger eye, possibly two. He has one copy of the tobiano gene. He may have a copy of Lp but at the moment he is not displaying any Lp characteristics that I can make out.

Intricate is Silver Black Pearl - black + silver + 2x pearl. She also has at least one copy of tobiano.

Heavy Grade (#1) is Silver Sable Cream Dun - brown + silver + champagne + 1x cream + dun. She also has a single tiger eye. She has at least one copy of tobiano and exactly one copy of Lp. The Lp is currently causing snowflakes and varnishing as well as a mild color shift.

Heavy Grade (#2) is Silver Sable Champagne - brown + silver + champagne. She does not have tiger eye. She has at least one copy of tobiano and at least one copy of Lp. Her current color shifting is due to Lp bronzing.

Delicate thy Jewels is Sable Dun - brown + champagne + dun. She has a single copy of tiger eye. She also has one copy of tobiano and at least one copy of Lp. She is currently showing snowflakes and heavy varnishing from the Lp.
