Crane Jr. purchased her from Country Life Farm, agent for Eugene Ford. Your Out, which was sold in foal to Lion Hearted  , was produced from the Fast Play mare Our Friend Hidayet, an added-money winner who is a half-sister to stakes winner Carrolls Favorite (by Allen's Prospect). Your Out is a half-sister to stakes-placed In the Cups (by Two Punch).

The top price during Tuesday's session was the $98,000 brought by a weanling Kafwain   filly that is the first foal out of the 8-year-old winning Allen's Prospect mare Dotsie's Doll. Other family members include grade II winners Castle Royale and Sir Shackleton. Winter Spree Farm purchased the weanling filly, a member of her sire's first crop, from Francis and Barbara Vanlangendonck's Summerfield consignment.
