Bint Allayl (19 January 1996 – 22 February 1999) was a British champion Thoroughbred racehorse. She was rated the best two-year-old filly of 1998 by both the International Classification and the Cartier Racing Awards. She won three of her four races including the Queen Mary Stakes and the Lowther Stakes and was made favourite for the 1999 1000 Guineas. She was put down after suffering an injury in training in February 1999.
Bint Allayl, a powerfully built ("barrel-chested") bay filly, was bred by her owner Sheikh Ahmed Al Maktoum. She was sired by Green Desert out of the Mr. Prospector mare Society Lady.
Green Desert finished second to Dancing Brave in the 2000 Guineas and became a leading sprinter, winning the July Cup. Apart from Bint Allayl, he sired the winners of over 1,000 races, including Oasis Dream, Sheikh Albadou and Cape Cross, the sire of Sea The Stars. Society Lady, a daughter of the Canadian champion La Voyageuse, failed to win a race but produced the Jersey Stakes winner Kheleyf. Bint Allayl was inbred 3x4 to Northern Dancer (see below)
Bint Allayl was sent into training with Mick Channon at West Ilsley, Berkshire.
Bint Allayl made her debut in a five-furlong maiden race at York in May. Ridden by Frankie Dettori, she reportedly had "every chance" but was beaten a neck by Pipalong, a filly who went on to be a Group One winning sprinter. It was to be her only defeat. Two weeks later, she reappeared in the Listed National Stakes at Sandown. She was held up by Dettori before being sent past the odds-on favourite, Speedy James, a furlong from the finish. She immediately went clear and scored a three and a half length victory.
