Golden horses: just add cream

Palomino and buckskin are probably my two favourite coat colours. They can be absolutely stunning! I used to have a few a few copies of various Quarter Horse magazines from the USA that I would go over again and again, admiring various gleaming gold stallions and their contrasting cream or black manes and tails, until the magazines fell apart from too much love.

An outrageously good-looking palomino Thoroughbred foal from Winning Colours Farm here in Australia.
Luckily for me, these two colours are genetically related.
