Araldo (12 March 2008 – 4 November 2014) was a British-born Thoroughbred racehorse. He was trained by Michael Moroney and owned by R & C Legh Racing Pty Ltd. In 2013, Araldo won The Bart Cummings, a Victoria Racing Club race held at the Flemington Racecourse. Araldo also raced at the 154th Melbourne Cup on 4 November 2014, finishing 7th with jockey Dwayne Dunn. However, after the race, he shattered a hind pastern when frightened by a spectator, and was subsequently euthanised. Race favourite Admire Rakti also died that day from a cardiac arrest after ventricular fibrillation, after finishing last.
