This coloring is confusing because it combines two different patterns:
* Bay: A base coat color with a reddish-brown body and black points (mane, tail, legs).
* Roan: A pattern where white hairs are mixed with the base coat color, resulting in a "roan" appearance.
The combination of these two patterns can create a horse that appears to be a mix of colors, making it difficult to identify at first glance.
