Saffron Beach (foaled 14 February 2018) is an Irish-bred, British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse. As a two-year-old in 2020 she was unbeaten in two races including the Group 3 Oh So Sharp Stakes. In the following year she ran second in the 1000 Guineas but then lost her form before returning to her best to win the Atalanta Stakes and the Sun Chariot Stakes. As a four-year-old she added further major successes in the Duke of Cambridge Stakes and the Prix Rothschild.
