Florizel (1768–1791) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse.

[1] As a sire, he produced 175 winners who won a total of 75,901 pounds.

Offspring included Eager (winner of the 1791 Derby), Tartar (St. Leger), Ninety-three (St. Leger), Brilliant, Diomed[2] (winner of the Derby and a great sire in the US, producing Sir Archy), Ulysses, Moustrap, and Admiral.

[3][4] Lester Piggott, retired jockey, named his house 'Florizel'.
