Queens of the Turf Master List
This is a master list of horses that may be covered in my Queens of the Turf project. This list slowly grew everytime I ran across new cool racing mares/fillies without me quite realizing to what size it had grown until I went through and formatted and catalogued things. There is a strong possibility that not all of these will get entries, but at least this will give anyone curious a starting point for names to look into. This list will also likely change, probably mostly expansion as new racehorses achieve feats or I run into historical records, but also some reduction if I determine that a horse's race record just doesn't quite merit their inclusion or there is simply insufficient information readily available. Inclusion on this list was based on (with only the first category giving automatic inclusion): Official acknowledgement as being of exceptional quality in a Part I country (Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, France, Germany, Great Britain, Hong Kong, Ireland
Some Champion Racehorses and Statistics
I recently purchased a book for research for Queens of the Turf, and it contains some listed championships and records that I was unable to find anywhere online, so I'm copying the information here to aid in dissemination of knowledge. The book in question, from which all of this comes, is Horse Racing: Records, Facts, and Champions 3rd edition, by Tony Morris and John Randall.
British Horse of the Year winners
Bloodstock Breeders' Review determined horses of the year from 1959 to 1965, with 20 racing journalists voting on a horse. Each horse, their age and sex, and the number of votes they received are copied here.

Queens of the Turf
Once upon a time, I thought that it would be fun to draw some portraits of historical racehorses and compiled a list of some racing mares to do. I have decided to actually do so, and share the results, with little informational articles accompanying the pictures. New entries will be released on Fridays, with hints on the next entry.
Suggestions for future entries, or recommended informational resources, are welcome.
