Daltawa is not the greatest but certainly she produced two immense horses:

Re: Who is the greatest producer of race horses?
Mining my own being the dam of Mine That Bird and Dullahan is quite an accomplishment.
Re: Who is the greatest producer of race horses?
If we are talking mares, what about Better Than Honor? Going back a bit a mare I truly admire is Battle Creek Girl.
So Run for the Roses, as fast as you can.....
Re: Who is the greatest producer of race horses?
I knew Better Than Honour would have to get some mention. Any other dams previously mentioned have back to back Belmont winners or Triple Crown series winners?
Re: Who is the greatest producer of race horses?
Jorge, you will like this one, as I love her:
Shenanigans
Dam of RUFFIAN, Laughter, Buckfinder and BM of the year, 1975
She was a lovely GREY (Jorge) daughter of Native Dancer.. as was her daughter Laughter, a grey, who produced Private Terms. Shenanigans female line is still going long and strong.
But producing Ruffian, dark like her unfortunate fragile sire, Reviewer, a filly like no other, is enough.

We will NEVER see another Ruffian......

The sport and industry survive not only because of the champions that are remembered forever but also because of the losers that are so easy to forget...

Re: Who is the greatest producer of race horses?
I don't know that Almahoud would qualify here, but she produced a couple of great broodmares in Natalma and Cosmah.
Natalma is the dam of Derby and Preakness winner, Northern Dancer, arguably the greatest sire of all time.
Cosmah is the dam of Halo, a great sire in his own right.
