Miss Oceana (1981–1988) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse who won six Grade 1 stakes during her racing career and was sold for a World Record price as a broodmare.
Bred and raced by Mark Hardin's and the Schwab families' Newstead Farm of Upperville, Virginia, Miss Oceana was sired by U.S. Racing Hall of Fame inductee Alydar. Her dam was the good racing mare Kittiwake, who was owned by Mark Hardin's stepmother, Katherine Bliss Hardin. Kittiwake was a daughter of the Sea-Bird, winner of the 1965 Epsom Derby and Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, and a French Horse Racing Hall of Fame inductee who earned a Timeform rating of 145 that as at March 2010 remains the highest in racing history
Trained by Hall of Fame inductee Woody Stephens, at age two Miss Oceana won the Grades 1 Arlington-Washington Lassie, Frizette, and Selima Stakes and was runnerup to Althea for American Champion Two-Year-Old Filly honors.
At age three, Miss Oceana won six important races including the Grades 1 Acorn Stakes, Gazelle Handicap, and Maskette Stakes. Once again, she was beaten out for an Eclipse Award, finishing behind Life's Magic in the voting for American Champion Three-Year-Old Filly honors.
