Surprised nobody has mentioned Selene. Dam of three influential sires in Hyperion, Pharamond & Sickle. Plus Hunters Moon was a classic sire in South America. Plus all four were Stakes horses as runners.

Not sure I would say she was a great but Alidiva had 3 separate group one winners in the same year over here in Europe. In 1997 Taipan won the Europa Preis in Germany, Ali-Royal won the Sussex Stakes and Sleepytime won the 1000 Guineas which I would think is a pretty impressive achievement.

Selene, Almahmoud, Special, Plucky Liege, Somethingroyal, Grey Flight, La Troienne, Rough Shod II , and Exclusive are a few great influential mares that do come to mind.

Grey Flight produced nine stakes winners plus a staked place foal. Pretty impressive.
