I seem to recall that (certainly in horse racing) horses were never referred to as black. Is that still the case?

You occasionally get a horse that is black or bay. Genuinely black horses carry the grey gene I think.There has been the very odd white horse,which are usually identified as albinos ( can you say that ? )
The top jockeys in the US are mostly Hispanic because South Americans tend to be lighter than both northern Europeans and West Africans.East Africans should be able to provide jockeys. Look at distance runners from Kenya,Ethiopia,Somalia. Recruitment drive needed ? I get the same impression that stable staff are very ethnically diverse. |

I seem to recall that (certainly in horse racing) horses were never referred to as black. Is that still the case? I am re-reading (for about the fifth time) "The Tesios as I knew them" by Mario Inchisa della Rochetts (publ 197, 113 pages). It is a book about the famous Italian trainer and breeder Federico Tesio. In the chapter"The superstitions and "science" of Tesio" - "Black is sad, black is death, black is nothingness. As a logical consequence Tesio never admitted to having a black horse - they were brown - and woe betide anyone who said they were black!" |

Do we need more white 'crime gangs' in London? They seem woefully under-represented, particularly in the flagship borough of Newham.
