Targowice (10 April 1970 – 2 April 1992) was an American-bred and French-trained Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. As a two-year-old, he was undefeated in three races including the Prix Eclipse and Prix Thomas Bryon, and was rated the best colt of his age in Europe. In 1973 Targowice won the Prix Djebel on his seasonal debut but won only minor race from four subsequent starts. As a breeding stallion he was best known as the sire of All Along who won the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe and was named American Horse of the Year in 1983.
