With leopard complex horses, it is important when identifying coat colors that as close to 1 year picture is taken, because of varnish and bronzing can make a bay into a gray, a brown into a chestnut and a chestnut into a cream (alongside a lot of other coat transformations and altering color combinations). Your two are easy however, they're both black with bronzing as they varnish.
By ten, they will share their sire's coat color.

She is also a silver dapple with a double tiger eye gene (which means both parents carry one tiger eye gene). There is also a chance for the filly to gray (from the stud), however I don't immediately see any indication of it, and there is also a chance that she'll have snowflakes, from her mother. If she has the leopard complex gene, the snowflakes should appear at her year birthday.
