Arctic Cosmos (foaled 31 January 2007) is an American-bred, British-trained racehorse and sire best known as the winner of the 2010 St. Leger Stakes.

Arctic Cosmos is a bay horse with a small white star bred in Kentucky by Sheridan & Iadora Farm. He was from the first crop of foals sired by the 2004 Epsom Derby winner North Light.

As a yearling, Arctic Cosmos was bought for 47,000 guineas at Tattersalls and John Gosden for his wife Rachel Hood.

As a two-year-old, ran twice, finishing fourth in maiden races at Kempton Park and Redcar Racecourse in October.

Arctic Cosmos began his second season by winning a maiden on the Tapeta surface at Wolverhampton Racecourse. He then ran in handicap races, finishing third at Newbury in May before winning over one and half miles at Kempton in June. He was then moved up sharply in class for the Group Two King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot in June in which he started a 14/1 outsider and finished second to Monterosso, with Buzzword (German Derby), At First Sight (runner-up in the Epsom Derby), Green Moon and Bullet Train (Lingfield Derby Trial) among the other beaten horses. The colt then finished third behind Rebel Soldier and Dandino in the Gordon Stakes at Goodwood Racecourse.
