Mathew was a racehorse which won the 1847 Grand National Steeplechase at Aintree near Liverpool. He is regarded as the first Irish-trained horse to win the race having been prepared for the race by John Murphy at The Curragh for County Cork-based owner John Courtenay. He was ridden on the day by the Irish jockey Denny Wynne.
