Regal Intention (1985–2008) is a Canadian Champion Thoroughbred racehorse.

A grandson of Northern Dancer, he was out of the mare, Tiffany Tam and sired by the important Vice Regent who also sired his stablemate and arch rival, Regal Classic.

Regal Intention was owned and bred by Sam-Son Farm and trained by James E. Day, a former Olympic equestrian show jumping Gold medallist.

Based at Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto, at age two the colt made eight starts, winning three including the Kingarvie Stakes. His main rival, Regal Classic, would be voted Canadian Champion 2-Yr-Old-Colt.

In 1988, Regal Intention was the dominant three-year-old horse in Canada. He won seven of his twelve starts, capturing the British Columbia Derby at Hastings Racecourse in Vancouver and important stakes races at Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto including a win over Regal Classic in Canada's most prestigious race, the Queen's Plate. In the Prince of Wales Stakes at Fort Erie Racetrack, the two colts ran one-two again but this time Regal Classic came out on top by a nose. Nonetheless, Regal Intention's 1988 performances earned him Canadian Champion 3-year-old Colt honors.
