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.
