Yeah - on a list that has heavily overrated female horses - Rachel Alexandra and Go For Wand are getting no love .. both truly all-time great 3yo fillies.
Here is Swaps:

Does anyone seriously believe Zenyatta ever gets within a football field of Swaps at 8.5 furlongs?
She has no chance in hell with him even at a 10 furlongs or beyond - but even in Zenyatta's two Breeders Cup Classsic races, she was being ridden along while still positioned behind dogs like Pleasant Prince after 8.5 furlongs. Horses like Anabaa's Creations and Rinterval - not even decent allowance females - forced her to photo finishes at 8.5fs in slower paced races.
