Back on my bullshit looking up horse facts! Those of you who know me probably already know that I base Gan's steed on a Fresian, and my lovely follower @ultimatefangirl-exe pointed out the silver gene in bays and chestnuts -- but did you know black steeds with red manes are often that way due to sun bleaching?
Dark horses bleach in intensely sunny climates and salinity (both common in an arid desert). On its own it isn't bad, but if it doesn't shed and regrow can cause skin damage, sun burns, and even hair loss. If managed and conditioned properly, though, it can result in very pretty coats -- the ones above are referred to sometimes as 'firetail fresians' (the bleaching starts in the mane and travels to the coat over time, iirc).
I imagine Gerudo horses with these traits are a mix of both silvers and natural bleaching, but Gan's stallion remaining deep black while his hair is bright orange implies that his horse, at least, is pretty well conditioned against the sun.

"I think it's sweet," Steve says.
Robin wrinkles her nose. "Nothing about Eddie Munson is sweet. He's a sewer rat, at best. Or like twenty opossums in a trench coat."
"Opossums are cute."
"He probably has rabies."
"You say that about me all the time, so I guess that's good. We'll have rabies together."
"He gave you a rock."
"You give me rocks all the time," Steve says, rolling his eyes. He runs his thumb along the textured edge of the rock Eddie'd handed to him.
"Yeah, good rocks." Robin scoffs. "That one sucks."

Today’s Exhibit of the Day? The Museum’s giant amethyst geode. Standing 9 ft (2.7 m) tall and weighing around 11,000 lbs (5,000 kg), it’s one of the largest specimens in our halls. How did this dazzling geode come to be? About 135 million years ago, the continental plates carrying South America and Africa began to separate. Magma poured out from fractures in Earth’s crust and large gas bubbles escaped from within the magma—becoming trapped in the rock as it solidified, forming cavities. Groundwater flowing into these spaces brought dissolved silica, which crystallized into quartz. Over millennia, most of these quartz crystals turned into rich purple amethyst. Spot this and other amazing specimens in the Museum’s Mignone Halls of Gems and Minerals!

Prompt 197
“Guys look, I got us pet rocks!” 
“That’s nice- Danny, why are the rocks moving?” 
“Ectoplasm. Obviously. They eat bad emotions, isn’t that cool?!” 
“They aren’t going to get that big though, right? I mean, we’re moving to the countryside but still.”
“I mean, they shouldn’t? Dang, maybe I should have asked Dora more questions…”
