Jet Ski Lady (foaled 20 February 1988) was an American-bred, Irish-trained Thoroughbred racehorse, best known for winning the Epsom Oaks in 1991. In a racing career which lasted from June 1990 to October 1991 the filly ran ten times and won four races. After winning twice as a two-year-old, Jet Ski Lady competed against colts with mixed success in early 1991 before winning the Classic Oaks over one and a half miles at Epsom Downs Racecourse. Her winning margin of ten lengths was the second widest in the race's history and her starting price of 50/1 made her the equal longest-priced winner of the Oaks on records. She subsequently finished second in both the Irish Oaks at the Curragh and the Yorkshire Oaks at York. She was retired to stud after finishing unplaced in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.
Jet Ski Lady was a chestnut mare with a white star and two white socks bred in Maryland by the Ryehill Farm stud. Her sire, Vaguely Noble, who was twenty-three years old when she was foaled, won the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe in 1968 before becoming a successful breeding stallion. His best progeny included Dahlia, Exceller and Empery. Jet Ski Lady's dam, Bemissed, was a successful racemare in the United States, winning the Selima Stakes in 1982. As a descendant of the broodmare Feola, Jet Ski Lady came from the same branch of Thoroughbred family 2-f which produced Round Table, Pebbles and Aureole.
