First Tzigane *Pb* foal of 2012
« on: February 26, 2012, 08:01:44 AM »

No thread yet for foals of 2012 so posting here.  Congratulations to Steven and Sandra Wilkes on the chestnut filly, born February 25th to their imported mare Holme Park First Class (E.H. Beg - Holme Grove Solomon). 

As yet unnamed; here are first photos.

The color most likely from the dam side of the pedigree http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/holme+park+first+class but Taz has several chestnut offspring - many out of bay/dark bay mares.  All 3 of my (bay) mares' first foals were chestnut.  Have produced 4 subsequent foals - all bay/dark bay.  So there's obviously a recessive gene @ work here - betting someone else knows how this works and what the odds are of producing chestnuts from two bay parents.  

Taz only has a few white hairs on his forehead but a lot of his foals have chrome.  I heard Condus had a lot of chrome (as grey's age it disappears) and if that's the case, it appears in subsequent generations.

Oh, I think Pam Duffy has a chestnut Tzigane out of a bay mare.

Correct Sally.  I've had chestnuts out of bay mares as well - remember Sam the Man?  Photo attached of him and dam Pr.St. Schoene Symphonie.
