Palomino. Buckskin: A bay horse with one copy of the cream gene, a dilution gene that "dilutes" or fades the coat color to a yellow, cream, or gold while keeping the black points (mane, tail, legs). Palomino: chestnut horse that has one cream dilution gene that turns the horse to a golden, yellow, or tan shade with a flaxen or white mane and tail.

Furthermore, even the lightest chestnut will retain "red" character in the hair, rather than gold. Gold champagne vs. palomino: the action of the Champagne gene on chestnut was for many years called pumpkin-skinned palomino. However ...

Champagne is a dominant trait, based on a mutation in the SLC36A1 gene. [1] A horse with either one or two champagne genes will show the effects of the gene equally. However, if a horse is homozygous for a dominant gene, it will always pass the gene on to all of its offspring, while if the horse is heterozygous for the gene, the offspring will not always inherit the color.

It is primarily found in animal coat colouring, particularly plumage colour in birds and, in Europe, in horses. It also has historically been ...
A true palomino, with a red-based coat, will exhibit yellow or gold tones; a silver horse, in contrast, is by definition black-based and exhibits gray, black or brown undertones. A sooty palomino, like other creme dilutes, may have brown eyes a shade lighter than average, [4] but this is not true of silver dapples
