Pina Colada Hero Z’s dam, Kamalah Hero Z, has competed to 1m40 with Dutch rider Boy Peels. Kamalah is a three-quarter sister to Leopold Van Asten’s Grand Prix horse VDL Groep Elegant Hero Z, and to Young Horse World Champion Kerswin Van’t Roosakker. Kamalah is also a half-sister to the Approved stallion, H5 Ganesh Hero Z, ridden by Mexico’s Carol Hank.

Granddam, Hiamant van’t Roosakker is a sister to Electra Van’t Roosakker, Falco Van’t Roosakker and MOM’s Gatoucha Van’t Roosakker. Hiamant’s sisters have themselves gone on to produce Grand Prix horses such as Kaprice (Kent Farrington), L'esprit Hero Z (Dermott Lennon), Attoucha (Paris Sellon), Zarkava Hero Z (Johnny Pals) and Marit Haarr Skollerud’s World Equestrian Games mount, Nelson van 't Roosakker.

The line has also given Ben Maher’s 2013 European Silver Medallist, Cella, among many others. The pedigree of Pina Colada Hero Z combines two crosses of the ‘Usha line’, as her dam is line-bred on Atoucha Van’t Roosakker.
