Because it reflects light off of the sun
The surface of the moon appears grey to the naked eye due to the presence of mineral grains such as basalt and anorthosite. These materials make up the lunar regolith, which reflects sunlight to give the moon its characteristic color.
The Moon is known to be a chalky white or grey colour but in actual fact scientists have found it to be a graphite grey which means very very close to black. So remember if to not be fooled by what you see as that is the different lights that reflect on it.
The moon appears white, grey, or yellowish in color depending on its phase, the angle of the sunlight hitting it, and atmospheric conditions. Additionally, during a lunar eclipse, the moon can appear reddish due to the filtering of sunlight through Earth's atmosphere.
The soil on the Moon appears grey in color due to its high content of iron oxide and other minerals. This gives the lunar surface its characteristic dusty and rocky appearance.
The moon appears to change colors depending on its position in the sky and the atmospheric conditions. It can range from white and grey to red, orange, and yellow during a lunar eclipse or due to the scattering of light by particles in the Earth's atmosphere.

Technically, there is no such thing as a true white horse. All "white horses" are variations of grey. There is a white grey because it is a variation of grey. So yes, there are such things as "white" grey racehorses. They aren't very common, though.
