Court Vision (foaled March 27, 2005 in Kentucky) is a retired racehorse who was a five time Grade I winner including the Breeders' Cup Mile. Upon retirement to stud in 2012, he first stood in Ontario, then was moved to Kentucky for 2016 then Louisiana for 2017.

He started racing on the dirt and showed promise as a two-year-old by winning the Iroquois and Remsen Stakes. As a three-year-old, he was entered in the Kentucky Derby but finished thirteenth. He was subsequently switched to racing on the turf, on which he won at least one Grade I race each year from age three to six. His win in the Breeders' Cup Mile in 2011 was his third try in the event.

Court Vision is a dark bay racehorse bred by William S. Farish of Lane's End Farm and Kilroy Thoroughbred Partnership. He is by champion sprinter Gulch out of the Storm Bird mare Weekend Storm. Weekend Storm was a full sister to 1990 Preakness Stakes winner Summer Squall and a half-sister to 1992 Horse of the Year A.P. Indy. All three horses were produced by 1992 Kentucky Broodmare of the Year Weekend Surprise, a stakes winning daughter of Secretariat. Like A.P. Indy, Court Vision was a ridgling, meaning he had one undescended testicle.
