L’Abbesse de Jouarre (1886 – 6 March 1897) was a Thoroughbred racehorse that won the 1889 Epsom Oaks. The horse was owned by Lord Randolph Churchill and the Earl of Dunraven during her three-year racing career. She was nicknamed Abscess on the Jaw during her career due to the difficulty the public had pronouncing her name. A versatile racehorse she was able to win major races at distances ranging from six furlongs to one and a half miles.
