Your Burrageara is of 3/4 Oncidium ancestry, so the Oncidium care sheet should be perfect. There's just enough of the Cochlioda, Miltoniopsis and Odontoglossum ancestry to fill out the flower and brighten the color.
Your plant is a clone ('Everglades'), probably choosen for mass market as much because it is easy and quick to grow as because it is attractive, so care should be easy. The Miracle Grow orchid mix should be just fine, but watch your watering carefully after you repot since it may retain more or less water than the current mix.
Intergeneric orchid hybrids do occur in nature, but rarely with more than 2 genera involved. Yours is a man-made hybrid with at least 4 generations of breeding and selection behind it, involving plants that live as far apart as central Mexico and Bolivia.
