Bottomline: For this horse the extension, dun, sooty, Lp, varnish and PATN all contribute to the coat color. Add them all together and you get a lace blanket varnish dark slate grullo. Extension makes it black-based, dun adds the grullo, sooty adds the dark slate, Lp with minimal PATN makes the lace blanket and varnish roan adds varnish.
