His future career will be focused as an Event horse/Sporthorse.

Electrum has been DNA colour genetic tested by UC Davis to be e/e, A/A, Cr/Cr. Chestnut mares crossed to him will produce 100% Palomino offspring; homozygous bay mares will produce 100% buckskin foals, by him; heterozygous bay mares, will produce 50% Buckskin/50% Palomino offspring when bred to him.
He will not throw 'blue eyes' with solid colour mares. Only double dilutes (two copies of the cream gene)eg. cremello, perlino have 'blue eyes'
