If you're looking for bays with blazes and high whites try looking for offspring of Composer. He throws alot of high white and big wide blazes.

Well it is proven that dominant extension ('E' or the black gene) suppresses white, so chestnuts (red bases in general) should always be the loudest.

Freud is a lovely and unusual exception.

Interesting about Roaring Fever as he's by the same sire as Freud. :D

Wow... I don't really see the color in Brain Trust's pedigree. Mayyyyybe Beau Genius.

You're dealing with dominant white though, not sabino, and it seems to have no qualms about expressing on a black base, unlike sabino.
