Horses with large patches of spots are referred to as pintos or paints. Pinto references the color pattern and Paint is a recognized breed registry of horse with this color pattern. (Paint Horse Association)
There are two types of patterns. One is when the horse appears to be mostly white with color spots. This is considered to be a tobiano pattern. Whereas a horse that appears to be of darker color with white spots is classified under the name of overo.

What color horse would you get if you breed a chestnut horse with a black horse?
The black horse's genetics is either aaEe or aaEE. If the Black horse is aaEE the foal cannot be chestnut. If the black horse is aaEe there is a 50% chance of the foal being chestnut. The possible colors for any non chestnut foal will be based on the genetics of the chestnut horse at the Agouti site. if the chestnut horse is aa any non chestnut foal will be black if the chestnut horse is Aa there is a 50% chance of a bay foal and a 50% chance of a black foal. if the chestnut horse is AA any non-chestnut foal will be bay.
What color horse will you get if you breed a black horse with a chestnut horse?
It depends on the horse's genetics. Chestnut is recessive to black, therefore a chestnut horse always carries two chestnut genes but a black horse could be carrying two black genes OR a black and a chestnut, but the black is dominant therefore the horse has a black coat. Think of it as the black coat always sits 'on top' of the chestnut coat so if a horse has a black gene it will always show up but chestnut will only show up if there are no black genes at all. If you breed a homozygous dominant (two black genes) black horse to a chestnut, the foal will always be heterozygous dominant black. (One black gene and one chestnut gene) If you breed a heterozygous dominant (one black one chestnut) black horse to a chestnut, the foal has a 50% chance of being heterozygous dominant black and a 50% chance of being homozygous recessive chestnut. (two red genes) If you have no idea what your black horse's color genes are, think of it as having a 75% chance of a black foal, 25% chance of a chestnut foal.
Is a black horse just a dark chestnut?
No... It is a completely different equine identifying color. A chestnut horse is a horse whose coat is basically red. Varies from a pale golden color to a rich, red gold. The mane and tail are normally the same color as the body, but may be lighter or darker than the body. If the mane and tail are lighter in color than the body, the horse is referred to as having a flaxen mane and tail. Sorrel is the what a "chestnut" quarter horse is referred to as. On a black horse, all hairs are black, although white markings may be found on the face and lower legs. A black horse has black eyes, hooves, and skin. If there are tan or brown hairs on the muzzle or flank, the horse would be referred to as a seal brown.

This is a red roan ( also sometimes called a strawberry roan or chestnut/ sorrel roan.)If a horse looks 100% truly pink it has likely been dyed that color.
