Comrade (1917-1928) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse who won the first-ever running of the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe in 1920.

Owned by the Evremond de Saint-Alary whose stable raced in England and France, Comrade was trained by the renowned British horse trainer, Peter Gilpin. At age three, the colt won the important Grand Prix de Paris in July then in October he was ridden to victory by jockey Frank Bullock in the inaugural running of what is France's most prestigious race, the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe
