That's why they have horse races, right? I usually don't mind contrasting stitches, but white isn't my color of choice. Orange or gold would have been fine.

And I discovered that the thread isn't cotton. It is apparently polyester which doesn't accept coloring agents well. What was invisible when done has faded to a blue color that actually works better, IMHO, than the complete cover up I was going for.
