I had £1 each way on Norton's coin- once in a lifetime to get a 100-1 winner- I still have my betting slip as a memento

Something about Desert Orchid I couldn't quite understand and, that was his COLOUR. Here in this Video he is White as snow and, at other times he would turn more of Yellowish and then, was pure White again. What was the reason for this? Could it be due go the change of Diet? Or, could it be due the different weather? I know that some animals shin or fur changes with the change of weather but, does it also apply to horses?

Notably, Norton's Coin was owned and trained by an ordinary diary farmer, instead of anyone else more prominent in the racing world. He did his daily farming work before hurrying to the racecourse.
