A man and his son were racing across the desert on camels escaping the
warriors following on horses, he asked the son: "Look back, son, and see
what color horse is leading."  "It's a grey, father."  "Keep riding son,
we're ok."  A little further on he asked the son to look again, "It's a
chestnut, father."  "Keep riding son, we're still ok."  a little further on
he again asked the son to look.  "It's a bay, father."  The father replied:
"Quick son, stop and say your goodby to Allah."  
I'm not playing, nor have I ever played, the *color* game, neither in my
dogs or horses. My belief is that you don't ride color or the head (the
latter comes from the days of the *head hunters* who went for extreme heads
and the rest of the horse be damned), I go for ability and structure first,
color is immaterial. However, all things being equal, I'll pick the grey
simply because I like greys.
