Breeding a Blenheim to Blenheim always gives a litter of Blenheims. The easiest to breed because that is all you get and I would think increases the chance to get correctly marked so more are bred than any other color because it is predictable. The wholecolors and a correctly marked tricolor are the real challenges. Ideally, no matter what the color, all cavaliers should look alike but that is the challenge of breeding.:) Just my opinion.
