If you're just looking at tail-female ... then La Troienne is it ... but ...

... if you're looking at overall impact on the breed ... it's Mumtaz Mahal ... "The Flying Filly" ... by two furlongs

Her influence through male lines is pervasive ... through Mahmoud, Gallant Man, Nasrullah, Royal Charger, My Babu, Northern Dancer, Rahy, St. Ballado, and many more ... and a whole squadron of stakes-producing broodmares.

Ah, for total impact, I still go with La Troienne, I see your point though...lets just name them both and call it a compromise!
