Bio
Yaupon did not begin his racing career until June of his 3-year-old season, winning a three-quarter-mile sprint at Churchill Downs by a nose. He followed with a runaway victory by 3 ¾ lengths July 8 at Saratoga Race Course, where he led from start to finish in another sprint.

Trainer Steve Asmussen tested the Uncle Mo colt against stakes competition in his third start and he acquitted himself nicely in the Grade 2 Amsterdam Stakes Aug. 29 at the Spa. Yaupon opened a clear early lead and won by two lengths as the 7-5 favorite on a muddy (sealed) track in 1:08.50 for three-quarters of a mile.
Making his next start in the Grade 3 Chick Lang Stakes Oct. 1 at Pimlico, Yaupon set a pressured pace under John Velazquez and powered well clear in the stretch in his way to a four-length victory as the 3-5 favorite.
Grade 1-placed winner Modification, by Vindication, is the dam (mother) of Yaupon.
