Ball picked...
→ White frm I, White frm II, White frm III
= 4/9*4/8*6/10 = 96/720
→ White frm I, Black frm II, White frm III
= 4/9*4/8*5/10 = 80/720
→ Black frm I, White frm II, White frm III
= 5/9*3/8*6/10 = 90/720
→ Black frm I, Black II, White frm III
= 5/9*5/8*5/10 = 125/720
Summing up all, we'll get - P(white frm III) = 391/720.
