Manikato (1975–1984) was a champion Australian Thoroughbred racehorse of the late 1970s and early 1980s. He established new track records in three races and was inducted into the Australian Racing Hall of Fame. Manikato was the second Australian horse after Kingston Town to win $1 million in stakes and by today’s standards won 20 races which are currently (2012) classed as Group One (G1) races.
