I went:
TRACE (3 yellows)
RARER (putting the vowels in the most likely position and trying to find out where the R was)
Then it was PARER or DARER, and the former seemed more likely. Don't think there was another option.
Farer
Barer
Yarer - not a word Iβve ever heard of
But yes that did fall into place nicely for you in comparison to me!
