Lys Gracieux (Japanese: リスグラシュー, Hepburn: Risu Gurashū; foaled 18 January 2014) is a champion Japanese Thoroughbred racehorse. As a two-year-old in 2016 she showed top-class form, winning two of her four starts (including the Artemis Stakes) and finished second in the Hanshin Juvenile Fillies. In the following year she failed to win but was placed in several major races including the Oka Sho and the Shuka Sho. As a four-year-old she won the Tokyo Shimbun Hai and the Queen Elizabeth II Cup as well as running second in the Victoria Mile and the Hong Kong Vase and was awarded the JRA Award for Best Older Filly or Mare. In 2019, as a five-year-old, she had by far her most successful season, as she won three G1 races in a row; the Takarazuka Kinen in June, the Cox Plate in Australia in October, and concluded her racing career with a five-length win in the Arima Kinen in December. She was awarded the 2019 Japanese Horse of the Year and was again awarded Best Older Filly or Mare. Lys Gracieux is one of the three highest earning racehorses in the world among the racehorses born in 2014, along with Thunder Snow and Enable.
