Jorge,
Here's an interesting little gelding. I'm attaching the Canter link. Someone please check out the photo and post it. Beautiful color....

Definately what I would call a flaxen sorrel. I know sorrel isn't a tb term...but to me the lighter ones are more of a sorrel then a chestnut.

He is the exact color of my colt I lost this year straight down to the tail. By Apollo had way more white.
