"Filho da Puta the Winner of the Great St Leger at Doncaster" is a notable painting by the English painter John Frederick Herring Sr., who was renowned for his works depicting horses. Created in 1815, the painting celebrates the victory of the racehorse Filho da Puta at the St Leger Stakes, a prestigious horse racing event held annually at Doncaster Racecourse in England. The St Leger Stakes is one of the five British Classic Races and the oldest of the country's five Classics, making this victory a significant event in the equestrian world.

John Frederick Herring Sr. (1795–1865) was a painter, sign maker, and coachman in his early years, but his talent for equine art led him to become one of the most prominent horse portraitists of his time. His works often captured the grace and power of racehorses and were highly sought after by patrons in the racing community.

In this particular painting, Herring Sr. captures Filho da Puta in a triumphant pose, possibly post-race, with the jockey up and the horse's body exhibiting the muscular definition and spirited demeanor characteristic of a champion thoroughbred. The painting not only commemorates a specific event in horse racing history but also serves as an example of Herring's skill in rendering the anatomy and vitality of horses, a trait that made him a favorite among horse owners and breeders.

The artwork is a testament to the cultural significance of horse racing in 19th-century Britain and reflects the period's social and sporting values. As with many of Herring's works, "Filho da Puta the Winner of the Great St Leger at Doncaster" would have been a valuable piece for its historical representation of a celebrated racehorse and as a work of art from a leading animal painter of the era. The painting contributes to the visual documentation of the history of the St Leger Stakes and the thoroughbreds that have shaped its legacy.
