Atlantic (1871–1891) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. In a career that lasted from July 1873 to September 1874 he ran twelve times and won six races. After a promising but unremarkable two-year-old season in 1873 he improved to become one of the best British colts of his generation winning the 2000 Guineas and finishing third in the Epsom Derby. His success was achieved despite his racing career being adversely affected by his tendency to break blood vessels in his races.
