Pedigree
Yara, by dual stakes winner Put It Back out of the Gilded Time mare Ashlee’s Lady, was a 64-1 upsetter of the Davona Dale Stakes at Gulfstream Park to earn a shot at Kentucky Oaks glory.
The filly’s sire only raced two seasons, but at stud has been responsible for such Grade 1 winners as In Summation and Jessica is Back.
Put It Back offspring have won from four furlongs to 1 3/16 miles, good for an average winning distance of 6.2 furlongs.
Yara gets an abundance of talent from her female line, even though her dam was unable to factor in her two lifetime starts. Ashlee’s Lady is, however, a half-sister to Grade 1 diva Healthy Addiction.
That duo’s unraced dam, Lady Laika, is herself a half-sibling to the dams of Grade 3 winners Maren’s Meadow and First Blush.
Yara counts as her fourth dam the Northern Dancer mare Cool Mood, who is best known as the granddam of 1997 Belmont Stakes king and top sire Touch Gold as well as fellow successful sire and Canadian Horse of the Year With Approval.
