Dank (foaled 6 March 2009) is a British Thoroughbred racehorse. She showed useful form in Europe as a three and four-year-old, winning the Atalanta Stakes, Dahlia Stakes and Kilboy Estate Stakes. The filly showed improved form when campaigned in the United States in the second half of 2013, winning the Beverly D. Stakes and the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf and being voted American Champion Female Turf Horse.

Dank is a bay mare with a white blaze bred by London Thoroughbred Services. She was sired by Dansili, whose other progeny have included the leading middle distance winners Harbinger, The Fugue and Rail Link. Her dam Masskana, won 3 races in France and became a successful broodmare, producing several winners including Eagle Mountain. Throughout her racing career, Dank was owned by James Wigan and trained by Michael Stoute at his Freemason Lodge Stables in Newmarket, Suffolk.

Dank made her racecourse debut in a seven furlong race at Newbury Racecourse on 16 September 2011. Ridden by Kieren Fallon, she started at odds of 9/2 and finished second, beaten two lengths by Hazel Lavery, a filly who went on to win the St. Simon Stakes.
