I am truely asking out of ignorance. I see so many posts asking the color of their horse. Why? Is this so they can be registered correctly? I do not breed, so I have never had to determine the color of a horse. Or is it because some colors are more desirable than others?
Example: If I purchased a weanling, and it is registered as black, but then starts to show signs of becoming a bay,(probably using a bad example) does it really matter???
Seriously, I honestly don't know the answer. I am not wanting to hurt any feelings, just wanting to learn something. Maybe this is something that really should be of more importance to me.
As you can probably tell, I am still new to minis.
Another example: Last year at Nationals in the solid color stallion/gelding class, most of the top 10 wins went to solid black horses. Why? Don't get me wrong, I have a solid black stallion, I think he is awesome, but I never considered putting him in the color class (until I saw all the blacks winning OH! ). Seen one black, seen them all.
Again, not looking to hurt feelings, just wanna know what I am missing. Please don't flame me
