English term or phrase: a super-achieving daughter
Context:

What he wanted was a super-achieving daughter who would serve as a positive reflection on him and further feed his already substantial ego. It wasn’t his daughter’s welfare about which he cared. It was his hunger for self-aggrandizement that he wanted to satisfy.

una hija superestrella - una hija insuperable - una hija que demostrase un dominio aplastante


Explanation:
Bueno, yo me inclinaría por algo que mostrara lo "superlista" que el Joe de marras querría que fuera la niña...

Vamos "un crack de hija"... "una hija imbatible en su ambición y capacidad de logro"

Por si sirve de algo...
