so i bred that filly yesterday and it says she is a gray roan splash tobiano. but she looks more like a blue roan not a grey roan. what makes her a grey even though she looks like a blue?

She has the gray gene and will gray out with age.

If you look at her face, you can see that she has a paler goggle around her eye. This is one of the subtle markers that show gray on foals. With the roan and tobi, she isn't showing any of the other light patches that young grays often have. Here is one of my gray foals: http://hj2.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=147169
If you compare her to a non-gray chestnut: http://hj2.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=145067
you will see more of the effect of gray on foals.
