Of those that I've seen first hand, Go for Wand is my favorite filly. The summer and fall of 1990 summary of her performances is nice. I saw every one of them in person. But they aren't germane to the conversation that was had on the air yesterday. The comparison made was that of the fillies TO THIS POINT IN THEIR CAREERS. And Wand's and Rachel Alexandra's are very comparable to this point in time (Spring of their sophomore seasons).
