For all the success Deputy Minister=s sons have enjoyed both on the racetrack and in the breeding shed- - and it has been considerable--his daughters have done just as much to turn the spotlight onto this influential son of Vice Regent.

History repeated itself with Deputy Minister=s third crop, thanks to Go For Wand. This magnificent filly had compiled a record of 10 wins and a pair of seconds from 12 starts prior to her tragic accident, when trying to repel Bayakoa=s challenge, in the 1990 Breeders= Cup Distaff.
