PQ is wrong.

He's registered BAY according to equineline and his progeny report backs it up as he has no gray offspring listed on PQ.

There is a VERY VERY SLIM chance of getting a gray out of two non gray parents with a new gray mutation. HIGHLY HIGHLY unlikely, though there is a gray parentage verified out of two non grays on another forum. I believe UC Davis or UK is doing or was doing some research on him.

Hey, this other thread is still pending solution. Please help define how come the gray horse QUESTION DAY is coming via two officially registered
and phenotypically proven non-gray immediate parents.
