No mares have ever won the triple crown, due largely to the simple fact that colts especially at that age have far more muscle and size. I do believe though a couple fillies have come close but don't quote me.

The Triple Crown races in US thoroughbred racing for 3 year old horses are:
The Kentucky Derby - 1 1/4 miles
The Preakness - 1 1/8 miles
The Belmont Stakes - 1 1/2 miles
For a horse to win the Triple Crown, it must win all 3 races.
Contrary to popular belief, Man o' War did not win the Triple Crown in 1920. He won the Preakness and the Belmont Stakes, but did not run in the Kentucky Derby.
