Dream Ahead (foaled 20 February 2008) is a retired thoroughbred racehorse, who was bred in Kentucky and based in England during a nine race career which lasted from July 2010 to October 2011.

As a three-year-old he was successfully campaigned at sprint distances, winning the July Cup at Newmarket and defeating Goldikova in the Prix de la Forêt.

[3] Dream Ahead was then purchased for Khalifa Dasmal by Mark Crossman for £36,000 in April 2010[3] and sent into training with David Simcock in Newmarket, Suffolk.

In the closing stages he drew clear of the opposition whilst again hanging to the left, winning by nine lengths from the second favourite Strong Suit.

With Buick unavailable, Dream Ahead was ridden by Hayley Turner, who was attempting to become the first woman to ride the outright winner of a British Group One flat race.

In the closing stages, Dream Ahead belatedly found a clear run and finished strongly to catch Bated Breath inside the furlong and won "readily"[9] by half a length.

Dream Ahead started favourite for the Prix Maurice de Gheest at Deauville four weeks later, but made no impression in the closing stages and finished unplaced behind Moonlight Cloud.

[13] c = colt, f = filly, g = gelding At the end of the 2010 season, Dream Ahead was rated on 126, alongside Frankel, making him the equal-best two-year-old in Europe.
