Wow that's a gorgeous dorsal stripe !

At 15 yo his coat is mature so I can say 100% Red Dun. The legs would absolutely have some black on them if he was Bay Dun. The dark mane is maybe some sooty. I guess you can say Dark Red Dun or Red Dun Sooty.

Even wild bai dun would have a lil bit of black on the extremities (wild variant limit the amount of black in bay based coat, you can look for it)

He would also have some black on the edge of his ears.

On young horse, the black can take some time to show but at 15 yo, it would be there.

That's a very beautiful boy ! Congrats :)

One of the biggest thing for me is that there's no black on the legs. He could've been wild bay, which would have limited the black even more, but even then the legs would look more black.

I believe if he has DNA on file with AQHA, you can send in hair and they will find his papers. I may be wrong, but I think they can do that!
