racehorse
- Awards And Honors:
- Derby (1916)
- Oaks (1916)
Fifinella, (foaled 1913), English racehorse (Thoroughbred) who in 1916 won the Derby, and two days later the Oaks; she was the last horse to win both events in one year.
Fifinella, sired by Polymelus and foaled by Silver Fowl, was owned by Edward Hulton and trained by Richard Dawson at Newmarket. As a two-year-old filly, she had two victories, and as a three-year-old she lost the 1000 Guineas by half a length before winning the Derby by a neck and the Oaks by five lengths. After a last race, she was retired. She was not very successful in breeding.
