true roan in selle francais?

I was looking to see if true roan could be in Selle Francais, as I saw on the wiki page they could, and it got me curious (since I know how shoddy alot of wiki info stuff is). I'm assuming its not actually in the breed but I figured I'd ask anyways, just to confirm. The only thing I could really find that had roan in it was a breed report of this mare saying she was a 'bay roan' http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/index.php?query_type=horse&h=MILADY+NOI… which I thought was weird since there are no roans/greys in her direct family history? *edit* found this on da, but he strikes me as rabiciano?: http://stockhorse.deviantart.com/art/Austin-playing-1-46754532 http://stockhorse.deviantart.com/art/Austin-playing-6-46754878 http://stockhorse.deviantart.com/art/Austin-2-20732208

It's be hard to say without seeing her. The second horse does look just rabicano, but considering how many native French breeds have roan I wouldn't completely rule out the possibility.

i could really see it going either way, either just being misregisteres as roan because of rabicano, or really having roan, but i know nothing of the breed but it seems like rabicano is more likely
