Flaxen brown roan is my guess, but I'm no color expert. She doesn't look like she inherited anything from her father, but roan and brown she definitely got from her mom, and a combo of the color of mane from her parents probably gave her flaxen. And she has the tiger eye gene, but that's obvious.

Again I'm no color expert and consistently get my colors wrong for my horses.

She is beautiful, btw! :)

Flaxen is only visible on chestnut. There is no thing as a flaxen brown, only flaxen chestnut. The light coloured mane and tail on anything that is not chestnut is caused by silver.

The horse is silver brown cream roan with tiger eye (green eyes) and metallic sheen (shiny coat).

The sire is silver dapple (black with silver) and the dam is smoky brown roan (brown with cream and roan.)
Looking at the pink skin on the muzzle on your horse it is a sign that she also is carrying two copies of the cream gene.

Flaxen only shows on chestnut-based horses. By the look of it she has inherited cream from both of her parents (the pink skin) so I would guess brown cream roan.

You're welcome! Looks like I was pretty close, just forgot that silver was the color I was looking for not flaxen ;)
