Agnes World (Japanese: アグネスワールド, Hepburn: Agunesu Wārudo; 28 April 1995 – 20 August 2012) was an American-bred, Japanese-trained Thoroughbred racehorse and sire, best known for his performances over sprint distances in Europe. Bred in Kentucky, he was sold for over $1 million as a yearling and exported to Japan. As a juvenile in 1997 he won three of his four races including the Grade III Hakodate Sansai Stakes, but was off the course for almost a year after sustaining an injury in early 1998. In 1999 he showed winning form over sprint distances in Japan before being sent to France, where he won the Prix de l'Abbaye in October. He remained in training as a five-year-old and showed his best form yet in Europe, winning the July Cup, becoming the first Japanese-trained horse to win a race in the United Kingdom. He was retired to stud at the end of the season and stood as a breeding stallion in Japan, the United Kingdom, and Australia.
