Mare and Foal Painting Color Concepts

Whoa, two blog posts from me in one day! That's a first!

I have not done a horse painting in years. Since it's spring I was thinking it would be fun to do a mare and foal in a field of flowers. (Yes, cutesy, I know! But what's wrong with cute?) I did some quick color concepts in Photoshop to try to determine what color palette I should go with. But I'm having a hard time deciding.
Which colors do you like best and why?

Palomino:


Buckskin:


Bay:


Blood bay:


Blood bay with green background:


I could also mix them up I suppose. Maybe a bay foal with a buckskin mare, for example?
