Parisot (1793 – after 1808) was a Thoroughbred racehorse that won the 1796 Epsom Oaks. Parisot was owned by Sir Frank Standish, who won the 1796 Epsom Derby with his colt Didelot.
Parisot was foaled in 1793 and was sired by the Epsom Derby winner Sir Peter Teazle. Her dam, Deceit (foaled in 1784), was bred by Mr Tattersall and was owned by Sir Frank Standish. Deceit produced 13 foals between 1790 and 1808, of which Parisot was her fourth, and the second of eight sired by Sir Peter Teazle. Deceit was a full-sister to the 1786 Oaks winner the Yellow Filly. Parisot's full-sister, the Sir Peter Mare (foaled in 1802), was the dam of Gramarie and the maternal grandam of Derby winner Prince Leopold.
Parisot was named after "a famous she-dancer of the day", a French dancer known as Mademoiselle Parisot.
Parisot (spelled "Parissot" in the 1796 Racing Calendar) won the Epsom Oaks held on Friday the 13th of May at Epsom Downs, beating "Sister to Viret" and a filly sired by Pot-8-Os, having started at odds of 7/2 in a field of thirteen fillies. The betting favourite was a filly named Frisky which was disqualified for running off course. At the July Newmarket meeting, Parisot was beaten in a match race by Sir Shelley's colt Cub, and Parisot finished third in a £50 race against six other horses. At the October meeting at Newmarket, Parisot was third in the Town Plate, losing to the colts Stickler and Hyperion. Parisot ran unplaced in the first class of the Oatlands Stakes. In her final start of the season, Parisot finished third in a £50 Subscription Handicap Plate.
Parisot started in the Craven Stakes held on 17 April at Newmarket but was unplaced in the race won by Hambletonian. At the same meeting, Parisot was unplaced in a £50 subscription handicap race. At Epsom on 31 May, Parisot was second to Mr Durand's horse Play in a £50 race. At Chelmsford on 18 July, Parisot was placed third and last in the Her Majesty's Plate for having "bolted" during the running.
