Black point expression

Tanpoint only shows on black-based (EE or Ee) coats. Additionally, the tanpoint agouti (Ap) is recessive to both bay (A) and seal (At), making it the rarest bay variation.

It mimics the appearance of tan point dogs, causing the red pigment to be restricted to the lower legs, muzzle/cheeks, and spots above the eyes. Optionally also the inside of the ears, the area around the flank/hip, and the front of the shoulder(chest).

The black point expression will always minimally start at the topline of the horse and "creep" down along the sides, always leaving the throat, belly/underside, and inside of the legs the last areas to be affected.
