Budd Lepman (August 19, 1917 – June 8, 1999) was an American Thoroughbred horse racing trainer who trained two Champions, won a record five training titles at Monmouth Park Racetrack, and by the early 1970s was regarded as "one of the nation's leading trainers".
Lepman was a native of Chicago where his father Horace was a broker and member of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. His mother's brother was Benjamin Lindheimer who owned Arlington Park and Washington Park Race Tracks as well as the Los Angeles Dons of the All-America Football Conference. Lepman initially trained horses in the Chicago area but in the early 1960s moved operations to a base in New Jersey and Florida during the winter months.
