"Grey" in a horse is a progressive "conditition" effecting color. Roan is permanent. What does exist in the TB is rabicano which (similar to roan, but different genetically) is a sprinkling of white hairs over the primary body coat. In a rabicano, like a roan the white does not progress and become more prominent.
For the last time people, this is from the KD website!! LOL
