First Trump is a retired British Thoroughbred racehorse and active sire. In 1993 he has named European Champion Two-Year-Old Colt at the Cartier Racing Awards. In his championship season he won five of his six races including the Group One Middle Park Stakes, the Group Two Richmond Stakes and the Group Three July Stakes. He was retired to stud after failing to win in six starts as a three-year-old in 1994. He currently stands at stud in Leicestershire.

First Trump, a 15.3 hands high chestnut horse with a narrow white stripe and three white socks, was sired by Primo Dominie out of the mare Valika. Primo Dominie was a high-class two-year-old and sprinter who won four Group races in 1984 and 1985 before going on to sire over six hundred winners during his stud career. Apart from First Trump, his best offspring was the Premio Roma winner Imperial Dancer. Valika failed to win a race, but was a half-sister of the European Champion Sprinter Mr Brooks. Unusually for a top-class modern racehorse, his pedigree includes neither Northern Dancer nor Mr. Prospector.

First Trump was sent as a yearling to the Tattersalls sales in September 1992, where he was bought for 66,000 gns by John Ferguson Bloodstock. During his racing career he was owned by Mollers Racing an organisation financed by a trust fund set up by Eric Moller who died in 1988. First Trump was trained throughout his career by Geoff Wragg at Newmarket, Suffolk and ridden in all his races by Michael Hills.
