My very green AA mare took the same approach on her first attempt XC with my daughter. Now my daughter often has her eyes closed but I had to laugh at this:

Yep. They did say we could take our jackets off for the next round but I was on my own so had nowhere to put it.

I've got a photo of me on friend's grey and he's doing the same. Why is it always greys? Must be something to do with dark eyelashes next to white making it look like their eyes are closed. I've never seen another colour look like it.
