The next closest such record belongs to Black Caviar, with an unbeaten record of 25 wins from 25 starts. Foaled in Kisbér, Hungary in 1874, Kincsem is a national icon, and is highly regarded in other parts of the world too. Over four seasons she won against both female and male company at various race tracks across Europe, including Classic race wins in Hungary and Austria, and major stakes victories in Germany, France and England. As a broodmare, she has proved a lasting influence on the breed, with modern descendants including English Classic winners Polygamy and Camelot. BackgroundKincsem was bred in Hungary at the Gestüt Tápiószentmárton by Ernő Blaskovich (also called Ernst von Blaskovich or de Blascovich depending on the source).[2][3][4] Her sire, Cambuscan, was bred by Queen Victoria and went on to win the July Stakes and place in the St. Leger Stakes in 1864. He was sold to Hungarian interests and was brought to stand at the Hungarian National Stud in the Kisbér District in 1873. Cambuscan was by Newminster, while his dam, The Arrow, was by Slane. Kincsem was out of the Hungarian mare Waternymph, a daughter of the English horse Cotswold. Kincsem's third dam, Seaweed was also by Slane, making Kincsem inbred to him in the third and fourth generations (3x4).[5][6] A perhaps apocryphal story surrounds the beginnings of Kincsem. Running with a group of fifty horses on the grounds of her owner's ancestral Hungarian home, she alone was lanky and ungainly. She would stand with her head low and her eyes half-opened. One night she went missing and when found again, was with a band of Romani people. "Why," asked her puzzled owner, "steal this horse when there were so many better to choose from?" "Because," answered the Rom, "The other horses may be better looking, but she was the best of the lot. She'll be a champion."[6][6] Blaskovich normally sold all his yearlings and Kincsem was offered as part of a package deal with six others for £700. However, she and one other filly were rejected by the buyer, Baron Alex Orczy, who felt they were of inferior quality. Kincsem thus raced for Blaskovich as a homebred. She was trained by Englishman Robert Hesp and ridden in most of her starts by Englishman Elijah Madden.[9][6] Kincsem was a liver chestnut without any white markings who stood {{hands|16.1}} high at maturity.[2] Despite Kincsem's talent, she was faulted throughout her racing career for her plain looks and lengthy frame. B.K. Beckwith, author of Step and Go Together, wrote, "She was as long as a boat and as lean as a hungry leopard ... she had a U-neck and mule ears ... she was lazy, gangly, shiftless ... she was a daisy-eating, scenery-loving, sleepy-eyed and slightly pot-bellied hussy."[6] Kincsem was noted for her quirky personality, which sometimes manifested in slow starts to her races or a refusal to move if separated from her pet cat, Csalogány. She was devoted to her groom, who traveled with her everywhere and was subsequently known as Frankie Kincsem. Her hay, grain and water came from her owner's stud farm, and she refused to eat anything else. On one occasion at Baden-Baden, the water ran out and she refused to drink for two days until a suitable substitute was found at what was subsequently known as Kincsem's Well.[4][9][2][6] Racing careerKincsem's career began in 1876 when she was two years old. She was entered for ten races in ten different places in Germany and what was then known as Austria-Hungary (modern-day Hungary, Austria, Slovakia and the Czech Republic), winning them all.[1][7] She won at distances ranging from {{convert|4.5|furlong|m}} to {{convert|8|furlong|m}}. In three of the races, she "distanced the field", referring to a margin of victory too large for precise measurement. In her other seven starts, her average winning distance was four lengths.[3] In one race, Kincsem failed to break from the starting line, preferring to keep grazing. After spotting the field an enormous lead, she finally started running and won easily. When she was led into the winner's circle to acclaim from the crowd, Blaskovich fastened a garland of flowers to her bridle. In all of her subsequent races, Kincsem refused to enter the winner's circle until he repeated the gesture.[6] As a three-year-old she won the Hungarian 2000 Guineas in Pozsony, the Hungarian 1000 Guineas and the Oaks in Budapest, the Austrian Derby, Austrian 2000 Guineas and Kaiserpreis in Vienna and the Grosser Preis von Hanover and Grosser Preis von Baden. In all she had seventeen victories at distances ranging from {{convert|8|furlong|m}} to {{convert|16|furlong|m}}. Two of her victories came by walkover, meaning no competitors were willing to face her, and three more were won by a distance. Her average winning margin in the other races was over four lengths.[3][8] Her four-year-old campaign was equally successful, beginning with nine straight victories.[3] She then traveled to England to take part in the Goodwood Cup. Originally she was expected to face eight rivals, including Ascot Gold Cup winner Verneuil. However, the field scratched down to just three: Pageant (Doncaster Cup, Brighton Cup and Chester Cup) at 5-4, Lady Golightly (Yorkshire Oaks, Nassau and Park Hill Stakes) at 2-1 and Kincsem at 3-1. Kincsem was not at her best, having suffered from seasickness while crossing the Channel. Pageant set the early pace with Kincsem trailing. With six furlongs remaining, Kincsem moved into second while Lady Golightly started to drop back, essentially turning it into a match race. Halfway down the hill in the homestretch, Pageant looked to have the race locked up, but Kincsem gradually closed the gap and ultimately "won in a canter" by two lengths. "She is obviously a rare animal," wrote the Daily Telegraph, "and little need be said to recommend her further than that she has now won 37 consecutive races."[6][9][9] That year, she also won the Grand Prix de Deauville and the Grosser Preis von Baden for a second time in what proved to be the closest call in her career – she won a run-off following a dead-heat with Prince Giles the First while carrying {{convert|137.5|lb|kg}} compared to his impost of {{convert|122|lb|kg}}. In all, she won fifteen starts that year from {{convert|8|furlong|m}} to {{convert|20|furlong|m}} while carrying an average weight of {{convert|144.9|lb|kg}}. She won three races by a distance and one by walkover. In the other eleven races that year, her average winning margin was 2.45 lengths.[3] In 1879, Kincsem turned five but proved that she had not lost a step by winning all twelve starts (including three walkovers) by an average of 4.6 lengths. She carried an average of {{convert|153.3|lb|kg}} at distances from {{convert|12|furlong|m}} to {{convert|18|furlong|m}}. She earned her fiftieth victory in Frankfurt, followed by a win in the Grosser Preis von Baden for the third time. She also won the Hungarian Autumn Oaks for the third time. All told, she retired with 54 wins from 54 starts.[3] As her unbeaten streak against Europe's best horses continued, Kincsem attracted great interest from the European racing public. Emperor Franz Josef was known to be a fan[8].[10] It is rumored that the Prince of Wales offered to buy her but Blaskovich declined, saying "If I sold Kincsem, I would not dare return to my native soil."[4][6] Race record

Stud recordAfter her 54th win, Kincsem was kicked by a stable companion and retired, making news around the racing world.[6] Her career as a broodmare was short but successful. Her five offspring were:[10]
Kincsem died on her thirteenth birthday March 17, 1887 from a colic attack, shortly after the birth of her last foal, Kincs.[1] Newspapers across Hungary edged their pages in black the day she passed. Flags were flown at half mast.[6] LegacyKincsem Park, Hungary's premier racecourse and located in Budapest, is named in her honour. There is a life sized statue of her by the entrance to the old grandstand.[15] Smaller statues of her can be found in the Chandelier Room at Santa Anita Park in California[6] and the Newmarket Horseracing Museum in England.[8] Blaskovich's stud farm now houses the Kincsem Equestrian Park and Kincsem Museum, which contains a room devoted to the mare's career.[16] Her skeleton, a hoof and her feeding trough are on display at the Museum of Hungarian Agriculture.[17][18]In the period from 1890 to 1970, the progeny of Kincsem's three daughters won 41 classic races in Austria, France, Germany, Hungary and Italy.[1] Although many descendants were lost during World War II, her family still survives, producing winners across Europe. In 1974, Polygamy, a female-line descendant through Budagyongye, won the Epsom Oaks. Kincsem's most notable modern descendant is Camelot, winner of the 2012 2000 Guineas, Epsom Derby and Irish Derby.[19][20] When including Kincsem in his book of the 100 Greatest Racehorses, racing commentator Julian Wilson noted that although the competition she faced in Hungary was difficult to evaluate, she was "probably one of the best mares to ever race in Europe."[8] Taking into account her ability to handle heavy weights and the range of distances over which she was successful, turf historian Richard Sowers wrote that there was "little question that [she] compares favorably with any Thoroughbred in history."[3] PedigreeAlthough Kincsem is Hungarian bred, her pedigree is mainly British. She was also the result of a mistake: Blaskovich had planned to breed his mare Waternymph to Buccaneer, but instead the mare was mated with Cambuscan. Both stallions had been imported from England to stand at the Hungarian National Stud. Cambuscan had earned nine wins including the July Stakes during four seasons of racing. Originally retired to stud in England, Cambuscan was not considered a great success though he did sire 2000 Guineas winner Camballo.[21][22] Kinscem's dam Waternymph (or Water Nymph in some sources) won the Hungarian equivalent of the Oaks and 2000 Guineas. She was a daughter of British sire Cotswold, who had been imported to Germany in 1858. Waternymph's dam is listed in most sources as The Mermaid, a British mare who had won the King John Stakes as a two-year-old.[2] However, according to German racing expert Philipp Alles, Waternymph's dam was instead an "illustrious" mare named Catherina.[21] Kincsem's female line is not on file on the Jockey Club's online database, Equineline.[23] The following pedigree assumes she descends from The Mermaid. {{Pedigree|name = Kincsem (HUN), chestnut mare, 1874[24] |f = Cambuscan (GB) 1861 |ff = Newminster 1848 |fff = Touchstone |ffff = Camel |fffm = Banter |ffm = Beeswing |ffmf = Doctor Syntax |ffmm = Ardrossan mare (1817) |fm = The Arrow 1850 |fmf = Slane |fmff = Royal Oak |fmfm = Orville mare (1819) |fmm = Southdown |fmmf = Defence |fmmm = Feltona |m = Waternymph (HUN) 1860 |mf = Cotswold (GB) 1853 |mff = Newcourt |mfff = Sir Hercules |mffm = Sylph |mfm = Aurora |mfmf = Pantaloon |mfmm = Lady |mm = The Mermaid (GB) 1853 |mmf = Melbourne |mmff = Humphry Clinker |mmfm = Cervantes mare (1825) |mmm = Seaweed |mmmf = Slane |mmmm = Seakale (Family: 4-o)[19] |}} FilmA Hungarian film, {{ill|Kincsem — Bet on Revenge|hu|Kincsem (film, 2017)|sv|Kincsem}}, directed by Gábor Herendi, was released in 2017.[25] The feature film presented Kincsem's history with fictitious details. The movie stood as the most expensive domestic movie with a combined cost of 3 billion forint. The Hungarian National Film Fund shared 2,078 billion forint from the total production cost.[26] The movie was released in Hungarian cinemas on 16 March 2017 and was later shown at the Cannes Film Festival.[27][28] See also
