No breed of horse is exclusively black, there is one breed, the Friesian that comes in mainly black, but they also carry the gene to express red (chestnut.)

The Extension gene is responsible for black and red pigment. If a horse is Homozygous (dominate) for black then it will have EE, if the horse is Heterozygous (recessive) for black it will be ee and will be chestnut in color. It is also possible for a horse to be Ee, that means it carries one copy each of black and red and can pass either one of those along resulting in either black or chestnut foals if paired with another horse that is Ee or ee.

What breed of horse are grullas or spelled grullo?

Grulla is a horse coat color that can occure in any breed. The dunn delution (horses with a dorsal strip) delutes or changes a horses original coat color. The dun gene turns a bay coat color into a yellowish coat color with black mane and tail with a dorsal stripe (Classic dunn). The dun delution lightens a sorrel body coat color but does not affect the color of the mane and tail (claybank dun) The dunn delution on a true black horse will produce a grulla (mousy grey color with black mane and tail. The dunn delution is not to be confused with the creme delution which delutes sorrels to palominos and bays to buckskins.
