First of all BLACK is a color and is a recessive color meaning either both parents are black or both carry rhe recessive black gene. Stallion is a SEX- it means uncastrated male, able to breed a mare and impregnate her. As an Arabian breeder and judge I was getting a lot of questions about black stallion as most people think a black horse IS a stallion! There are as many black mares and gelding in and breed . Black as a color is not biologically an advantage for horses in the wild, in colder climates in the winter they show up against the snow pretty well, and in hot climates really dark horses like a black absorb more of the suns light and are hotter. So course some color breeds like the palomino and buckskin do not allow blacks to be registered. In the Arabian breed anout 1-2% are born as true blacks (not a black bay) In the movie and books "The Black Stallion by Waler Farley the "Black" is a desert born Arabian and a member of the oldest recorded breed in the world. Bedouins prize horses highly and know their family tree better than their own.
