Are you talking about howrse.com?If you are then the foals are random it doesn't matter what color the parents are. Sorry if you're not talking about howrse.
It depends on the sire and the dam's parents, but the foal will most likely be bay. Here is the link for an equine color calculator: http://www.animalgenetics.us/CCalculator1.asp

However, you can veiw the chances of each color with this Foal Color Calaculator in the relatred links. The calculator said the following when I entered in the mare and the stud coats Offspring Color Probability 43.95% - Buckskin 43.95% - Bay 3.13% - Palomino 3.13% - Chestnut 2.93% - Smoky Black 2.93% - Black However, there were options to specify. It asked for Red factor and the Agouti, whether it was heterozygous or homozygous. I did not know these specifics, so I left it as unknown, which is why I advise you go and experiment. See what would happen if the stud was homozygous, or if the mare was homozygous, or if she was heterozygous, etc. YOu can only know with the vet usually....but its unknown...you wont know until the foal is born sorry.
You are likely to get a chestnuty/bay colour I think.
The exact color of the foal will vary according to the exact genetic coding of both parents and without that information it can be almost impossible to tell you what color a foal may be.
The color of the foal will depend on the exact genetic coding of both the sire and the dam. A line on the back of a bay horse is called a dorsal stripe, this can be caused by either counter-shading from the Agouti gene or she could contain a dilute gene hidden somewhere in her genetic code. Without know which it is it could be impossible to say what color the foal could be. You do have a chance at a foal being one of the following colors Bay dun, Dun, grullo, Black, Red Dun, or Chestnut. That's just going by basic colors and not exact genetics.
Palomino stallion --eeCrcr (unknown genetics at the agouti site) Bay Leopard Appy mare A-E-LpLp (unknown zygousity at the agouti and extension sites) The genetics of the mare at the agouti and extention sites and the agouti site of the stallion will determine the base color (bay, black, chestnut). Researching the colors of the parents and grandparents of the sire and dam may help determine the unknown genetic information at the agouti and extensions sites. There is a 50% chance that the foal will be dilute. The foal will have a high probability of having appaloosa characteristics.
you pick a breed that has the cherry bay coat and breed howrse will randomly pick a coat color from that breed for your foal, or you can just buy one You can use the Hera Pack and choose the coat of the foal. Or you can buy a cherry bay foal. OR, just hope your mare gives birth to one.
If either horse is homozygous for roan the foal will be roan, if both are heterozygous there is a 75% chance that the foal will be roan. If by strawberry roan you mean the stallion is a bay roan as opposed to a chestnut roan, we can surmise that the stallion is Rn-A-E- The mare is Rn-aaE- The base color of the foal, without regard to whether it is roan is as follows If the stallion or mare is EE at the extension site they will produce either a bay or black foal...since the stallion is bay he could be AA (only bay foals) or Aa which will produce 50-50 bay or black with this mare. If both the mare and the stallion are Ee at the extension site there is a 25% chance of a chestnut foal.
If you're talking about what color the foal would be when it was born, then there's really no way to tell. It all depends on the dam's and sire's genetics. The foal could come out light bay. It also could come out grey. But it could also come out a number of other colors such as black, palomino, buckskin, piebald, etc. depending on the breed of its parents and its DNA.
A bay mare could be AaEe, AAEe, AaEE or AAEE. The stallion could have very similar genetics to the mare or he could also carry At to make him a nearly black horse with a red muzzle and flanks. The foal is most likely to be bay, however is both parents carry e there is a 25% chance of a chestnut foal.
The genetics have everything to do with this. Supposing the mother is homozygous for roan and the sire is homozygous for dun, the foal would be either grullo roan, bay dun roan, or red dun roan. In the releated links is the website I used to calculate it. Play around with it a little and see all your options. Try seeing what will happen if the mare is heterozygous while the sire is homozygous, vice versa, and what if they are both heterozygous.
