The highwayman Dick Turpin owned the black bess
A 'white' horse with a black mane and tail would really be a grey horse that has not finished going completely white coated. A grey horse no matter the shade of it's body hair will always have grey skin, while a truly white horse will have pink skin.

A black and white 'spotty' horse could be any number of colors. It could be an Appaloosa or Appaloosa marked horse, or it could be a pinto marked horse depending on how big the 'spots' are and what breed or cross it may be.
A black horse absorbs more heat from the sun due to its dark color compared to a white horse, which reflects more sunlight. This makes the black horse feel hotter in the sun compared to the white horse.
