Mumtaz Mahal (1921 – 1945) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse who was champion two-year-old, champion sprinter, Horse of the Year and a highly successful broodmare.
She was ranked 71st in Britain and Ireland's Top 100 Racehorses of All-Time in 2013[1] and was referred to by the National Horseracing Museum as "just about the best two-year-old filly seen in the 20th century"[2] and by the National Sporting Library's Thoroughbred Heritage website as "one of the most important broodmares of the 20th Century".[3]
