What Colour Is This Mare?

I saw this mare advertised for sale and she is listed as 'DUN', do you think she is dun or if not what colour could she be. When I looked my first impression was a bucky going grey. I know I'm probably way off but am curious lol. Thanks, Kiri http://www.horseyard.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=2…; Oh and I sent them an email asking for piccies of her dorsal stripe and cobwebbing and info on any colour tests that have been done :)

She looks like a greying out Buckskin to me, but she could easily be another, similar, greying out colour- not Dun.

Thanks guys, it'll be interesting to see if she has been tested for anything and if so what the results were.

I was informed that her tiger striping only shows up in Winter but have attached a pic of her dorsal stripe. I was only emailed this one pic...

That's kinda what I thought. I was surprised the owner hadn't had her tested for 'something'.

I sold a horse a couple of years ago that a friend had bred and was clearly going grey and when his new owners onsold him I saw her advertising him as a rare buckskin silver dun. I found this amusing considering she bought him as a grey lol.
