Assuming you are referring to the horse colors. Liver is a darker form of chestnut and therefore there is no 'cross' between them. The shade of chestnut inherited by a foal is purely genetic.

Which breeds of horses can be liver chestnut?

Many breeds of horses can be liver chestnut. It depends on their parents, who pass on this trait. Normally, at least one of the parents has to be chestnut (if both parents are chestnut, then the foal will be chestnut ... but not necessarily liver chestnut). Color is never a guarantee in breeding horses, although the foal is chestnut, it might not be LIVER! Arabians, Morgans, Thoroughbreds, Standardbreds, Quarter Horses, Saddlebreds, Tennessee Walkers, Paso Finos, to name a few. This also includes many pony and draft breeds, which can also be chestnut. On the other hand, an Andalusion or a Lippizaner can never be chestnut; they are always born black and turn grey (or white with age). Also a Friesian horse is always black. Many other breeds of horse have their own color patterns and can never be chestnut. In any case, it mostly depends on the parents and the color gene they carry.

Can you breed a gold champagne to a liver chestnut to get a chocolate palomino?

No. There are 2 totally different sets of genes that make up these two colors. Champagne is a dilution gene and there is now a test for it. (see Related Links for more information) Liver Chestnut is genetically just chestnut (same color as sorrel) but is visually darker. There are many shades of a red base color but they are still all a red base color. There is no test for Liver Chestnut because, at this time, it is not considered a color at all, but a way to describe a darker red horse. If you breed a gold champagne to a liver chestnut, you can get chestnut, gold champagne, liver chestnut or a darker gold champagne. The chances for Liver or the darker gold champagne is probably less than plain chestnut/sorrel or gold champagne. Chocolate Palomino is also not a "color" but is a word to describe a darker palomino. Could be a sooty gene darkening the palominos appearance. There are other colors that people call chocolate too and they are totally unrelated genetically to the palomino. Silver dapple is the best example.
