Bred by Gestut Hoff Ittlingen, he is out of Laurencia, a Shirley Heights half-sister to the six times Group 1 winner Lando who is the sire of Punchestown Grade 1 winner Air Force One and Heartbreak City, who won the Galway Hurdle and was narrowly denied by Almandin in the Melbourne Cup.

Lando is also the broodmare sire of Lockinge and Champion Stakes winner Farhh, who is the sire of young stallions King Of Change and Dee Ex Bee.

Lauro's dam is a half-sister to another Deutsches Derby winner in Laroche and she produced the German champion two-year-old filly Love Academy, dam of the Group 2 winner and Classic-placed Longina.
