Roaring Riva (21 February 1983 – after 1998) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. He raced in at least four countries and won four of his seventeen races. A specialist sprinter, he showed his best form as a two-year-old in 1985, when he won three races including the Phoenix Stakes. He did not win again until 1987, when he won the Ostermann-Pokal in Germany. He made no impact as a sire of winners.
