We have a QH/Warmblood cross at our barn that just turned six.  He has
finally lost the mud brown on his face.  He is still has muddy knees and
a few patches on his haunches.  At the rate he is going he will be a
nice dark dapple grey by the time he is twelve or so.  This horse and a
mountain have a lot in common.
