Gorytus (7 February 1980 – 18 July 1996) was an American-bred British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. As a two-year-old in 1982 he created an enormous impression by winning the Acomb Stakes and Champagne Stakes by wide margins and was regarded as a potentially great racehorse. His very poor run when odds-on favourite for the Dewhurst Stakes was believed by many including his trainer to have been the result of doping.
