Mannamead (1929 – after 1946) was an undefeated British Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. He was undefeated in three races in 1931 when he was rated the equal-best two-year-old of the year in Britain. In 1932 he was regarded as a major contender for the British Classic Races but was injured in training and was restricted to one race in late autumn. In 1933 Mannamead was unbeaten in three further races before being retired to stud. He had limited success as a sire of winners in Britain, but had more success after being exported to Hungary. He disappeared during the Soviet occupation of Hungary in 1946.
