I was wondering if this colt has potential down the line to breed Champions. Any info is welcome

could https://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/3792329 also be metallic, or is it just the lighter colors that have it?

Any horse, given the right circumstances, can found a line of champions- I would know, I brute forced my way into both of my larger projects :lol:
A horse doesn’t need to be good to be a champion. The better question is if he can produce horses that could start to become competitively viable- to which I’d say, he’s not worth the energy (GP way too low), unless you really want to sink time into developing a line from him. I’d suggest instead to invest in a good quality mare and find a cheap high quality stud to breed her to.

All good, sorry for the wait. I'm not overly active at the moment. Got a bit burnt out of the game. : )

Varnished Black Blanket Mohawk (Ee/aa/tN/LPlp). Tiger Eye carrier (t) from the mother and may also carry Sooty from her. Sooty doesn't show on Black so the only way to tell would be if any of her foals inherit it.
Conformation:
Speed 54
Strength 28
Stamina 29
Intelligence Conformation does not affect Intelligence
Balance 22
Movement 25
Agility 26

Silver Bay (Ee/Aa/Zn). A very gorgeous coloration on this one, love how saturated he is.
Conformation:

Varnished Silver Dapple Leopard (Ee/aa/Z/tt/LPlp). Homozygous Tiger Eyes, guaranteed to pass one gene to any offspring. Mohawk carrier via the father. Tall socks/Tobiano on the legs.
Conformation:
Speed 30
Strength 26
Stamina 26
Intelligence Conformation does not affect Intelligence

Rehomed.

Palomino Fewspot (ee/??/Crn/tN/LPLP). Mohawk carrier and Tiger Eye carrier via the mother. Can't be completely certain on the Agouti as neither parent has black/extension to show it and the grandparents did not have pictures taken. I'd do a deep delve into the horse's (half) siblings, but I have a bit of a headache right now so apologies but I'm not going to do that at the moment.
Conformation:

Varnished Palomino Blanket Mohawk (ee/?a/Crn/tt/LPlp). Homozygous Tiger Eyes. Can't be 100% sure on Agouti as the father may be hiding some. Only one Agouti positive gene may be possible as the mother was non-Agouti.
Conformation:

Any horse may be metallic if it has the genes for it. Metallic's a somewhat difficult gene to pin down. Metallic is common in Turkmenes (pretty sure it originates from AC Turkmene stock) and as such I wouldn't be surprised if that horse and his mother are both carriers. Black's a difficult color to identify it on sometimes. Hope that helps. : )

From what I remember, a good HGP is 60,000 or higher. I'm not sure how much it's changed from when I was last very active, but that's the threshold that I recall. 65,000 is very good (even recordholder good) assuming your horse has good conformation and such.

If you have more questions on that kind of thing I'd suggest checking out the Gameplay Questions & Help area. I'm happy to help further with any horse coloration questions though. ;)

Would you be able to evaluate this guy?
https://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/3979934


and his sire as well. I think they are both a type of roan but haven't a clue as to what else; possibly metallic? or maybe the sire just has a shine from training. I just think the color is very interesting and I like it.
Thanks for you knowledge and time.
