If a breeder is trying to produce only black coated horses the ideal genetic make up at the Agouti and extention sites would be aaEE. Elimination of any modifiers that compromise the intensity of black color should be screened out over time.
That being said, selection based only on color is ill advised. Temperament, structure
suitability to the desired task are paramount over any color combination.

Why must selective breeding be used in horses?
Selective breeding is very popular among people who have horse breeding farms. Selective breeding is used to get certain traits for the future foal. For example, if somebody had a stallion (male horse) that has won many races, a person with a mare (female horse) would want to breed to that stallion in hopes of producing a foal that would be good at running races. In the wild, horses are not domesticated, therefore breed with any horse they please from age 1 and up. Wild horses are smart, though, and know what horses are related to them so they will not inbreed.
How has selective breeding been used on humans beings?
it is useful to humans because if they are looking into raising a foal, to grow up to be a great race horse they would want the parents to be healthy and quite fit.

Alleles are crossed from two different parents with the desirable trait. For example, if one female show horse produced a beautiful coat, and another male show horse also produced a beautiful coat, the breeder would breed the two horses to get the good-coat-producing gene in the offspring. The two alleles would produce the desired trait in the offspring.
