I don't know enough Spanish to translate his papers, but there is a clear as day roan stallion on that web page...

Well if I try and remember this correctly, there are different registries in Spain (not one universal PRE registry). And at one point they tried to make PRE's in different parts of the country their own breed/registry. I want to say breeders in Northern Spain were through to have crossed draft blood in for a larger mount, which is how roan snuck in. But I can't remember my sources, I feel like we may have talked about it on here.
I don't know Spanish either,
I don't know Spanish either, but I have seen Lipizzaners that I believed were roan under the gray. So I find it easy to believe it could hide under all the gray.
