My new project. Pulled the trigger after the sale today,
was afraid of my growing cart. Was looking for some different
eyes and input on him. What could make him really wow?
As he sits now, I would be happy too.

He's so pretty

I don't know how you feel about creams, but I could totally see a copy of snodrop or sunshine adding just a hint of spice to the future. Otherwise he's perfect.

I’m personally always a sucker for satin and that’s on sale today too, but even as is he’s an absolute stunner!

I think Ice 13 and satin would push him over the top!

I agree with Lallyhop, satin would add a nice bit of shine.... you'd get a little bit of an echo of the green and red and it might jazz the colors up a notch. I absolutely love how he got the patchy markings. If he was the stripey brindle I think he might lose the visual effect.

The diamond over his eye is so cool! Makes me think of the joker in playing cards.

This might be my favourite toner horse so far. He is awesome! And I made myself a toner stallion this season!

If I was going to add anything else to him it would be another ice. I personally would pick something subtle like what you’ve got going with the ice 16. I would use ice 17 or 18 of the ones currently available, but I don’t think you can go wrong with ice 13 which is a perennial favourite.

I add my vote for satin, especially with it being on sale.

S+ would potentially give more variance to the toner expression and is always the top of my list for a WC or toner horse.
Back in the day we used to call DP Bay and Brown WC horses with S+ "Dragons" because of how the S+ expressed itself with cool shading.

I also agree with Seaswell about hiding something on the cream allele. Making him het for Pearl or Sunshine or Snowdrop won't change his look but in a couple of generations you will get some lovely hom foals and pearl/sun/sno all look lovely with toner.

I love how his patches are now, they are my favorites! Afraid to add 'cause I know he'll lose 'em. X_X
Thanks for all the options! S+ is one of my more favored GMs for him. I want to like Satin,
I feel it's weird that I don't. Haha.. On certain horses I will say it does complete them.
Pearl will make it's appearance in the line for sure with the others I have, but may throw it
in there too to cover bases.
