My Tent Or Yours (foaled 16 March 2007) is an Irish-bred, British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse who competes in National Hunt racing and has finished second in three editions of the Champion Hurdle. In his first season, he showed promising form in National Hunt Flat races, winning on his debut and finishing second in the Champion Standard Open NH Flat Race. In the following year he was one of the best novice hurdlers in the British Isles, winning the Betfair Hurdle against more experienced rivals and the Top Novices' Hurdle at Aintree. In the 2013/2014 National Hunt season he won the Fighting Fifth Hurdle and the Christmas Hurdle and finished runner-up in the Champion Hurdle. His later career was interrupted by injury but he returned to finish second in the Champion Hurdle in 2016 and 2017.

My Tent Or Yours is a bay gelding bred in Ireland by Frank Dunne. He was sired by Desert Prince, one of the best European-trained colts of his generation who won the Irish 2000 Guineas, Prix du Moulin and Queen Elizabeth II Stakes in 1998. He has not been a particularly successful breeding stallion, but has sired the Scottish Derby winner Oriental Magic. His dam Spartan Girl won one minor race and came from a very well-regarded family, being a half-sister of Conduit and a close relative of Petrushka, Spectrum and Millenary.
