Chestnut is actually recessive, so you can only get it if both parents carry the allele.  Breeding to a chestnut stallion, for example, guarantees that the foal will get one chestnut allele. If the dam contributes a chestnut allele as well (even if she is NOT chestnut herself, but carries the allele) then you will get a chestnut foal.  Chestnut effectively masks the rest of the base color genes.

I bred a dark bay mare to Pregelstrand (also dark bay) and couldn't believe it when I saw a bright chestnut filly.  I'll bet you were as surprised as I was!  Sam is adorable!  I love that photo of him with neck outstretched checking out your shampoo.   Cheesy

Twin Gates,
He is fabulous!  Absolutely fabulous.  I had seen photos of his dam before, and was very impressed with her.  It seems you have found a "golden cross" here.  Do you plan to repeat the breeding?
Best wishes to you~

Thanks Christina, and I agree, sometimes you just find that 'nick'. We certainly did repeat this breeding and Symphonie is confirmed in foal for an April 2006 Taz foal.
