Seabreeze (1885–1909) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse. She won several races as a two-year-old including the Ascot Biennial Stakes, but was overshadowed by Friar's Balsam. As a three-year-old she was even better. After finishing as the runner-up in the 1000 Guineas, she won the Oaks Stakes, Coronation Stakes, Lancashire Plate, St. Leger Stakes and Newmarket Oaks. Seabreeze stayed in training as a four-year-old, when she ran in top-class races, but didn't win. She was owned by Frederick Henry William Gough-Calthorpe, 5th Baron Calthorpe, and trained by James Jewitt. As a broodmare she produced some high class runners, but none met with the same success as their dam.

Seabreeze was a chestnut filly bred by the Duchess of Montrose and foaled in 1885. She was sired by Isonomy, who won the Ascot Gold Cup twice and the Goodwood and Doncaster Cup. He also became a successful stallion, siring the two Triple Crown winners Common and Isinglass, along with the successful stallion Gallinule. Seabreeze's dam was St Marguerite, a daughter of Hermit. St Marguerite won the 1000 Guineas and was runner-up in the Oaks. St Marguerite also had success as a broodmare, also foaling Roquebrune, the dam of Triple Crown winner Rock Sand. The Duchess of Montrose sold Seabreeze to Captain Machell, who then sold her on to Frederick Henry William Gough-Calthorpe, 5th Baron Calthorpe. The filly was put into training with James Jewitt.
