Just came across some brilliant Italian fillies and thought I would share. I can't find too much about them so I'm sure no one here has heard of them.
ARCHIDAMIA: 1933 filly. Won about 22 stakes races including the Italian Derby and Oaks. 6 grade ones. About 15 of those stakes wins came as a 3 year old.
ASTOLFINA: 1945 filly. Won Italian 2000 Guineas, 1000 Guineas, and Oaks. About 19 stakes wins. Defeated Ribots sire Tenerani and his dam Romanella.
NOGARA: 1928 filly. Most know her as the dam of undefeated Nearco, but she was a brilliant racehorse as well. She won 14 of her 18 starts including both the 2000 and 1000 guineas.
BARBARA SIRANI: 1953 filly. Won about 15 stakes races, including the St Leger. Defeated colts in many of her races.
MARGUERITE VERNAUT: 1957 filly. Won at all distances from 1200 mt to 2400 mt, defeated French champion 2yo filly Never too Late. Won the Premio Melton twice.
