Color Options

Ok, this might be a little vague, but...
If we breed a palomino stud to a sorrel mare, what are all the color possibilities?
This is just some general info about the colors the sire and dam have thrown:
Sire:
Has thrown palo, bay, and cream (blue eyes) for sure
Dam:
Has thrown a grey when bred to a grey, a sorrel, and I think a bay...

Sorry, I know its not alot to go on, but its all I have right now. I'll try to get more info ASAP.
A freind is having to leave his land he rented for 20years in 3 months, and is selling all but 2 horses (he has ~15...), and he is giving us a bred mare. Stud is the palo.

Both horses are red based so all you can get is red - 50% sorrel, 50% paly. Only options.

I agree completely with Hiddenview UNLESS the stud is actually, genetically a dunalino (carries a dun and a cream gene, they are often misidentified), in which case you could add red dun and dunalino.

Here's a neat web page I use to determine what I may get color wise:

Just click on color stats and input your data! Hope this helps!
