Spinning Queen (foaled 27 March 2003) is a British Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare best known for her emphatic victory over a top-class field in the 2006 Sun Chariot Stakes. As a two-year-old in 2005 she won on her debut and went on to run prominently in several major races, finishing third in the Cherry Hinton Stakes and fourth in both the Albany Stakes and the Prestige Stakes. In the spring of following year she finished second in the Nell Gwyn Stakes and sixth in the 1000 Guineas before running third in the King Charles II Stakes. She showed improved form in the summer, winning the Eternal Stakes and the Brownstown Stakes. In September 2006 she ended her racing career with a nine-length over Soviet Song, Alexander Goldrun and Red Evie in the Sun Chariot Stakes at Newmarket. She was then sold for a record price of 3 million (guineas and was retired from racing. She has subsequently become a successful broodmare.

Spinning Queen is a chestnut mare with a narrow white blaze bred in England by her owners Richard A. N. Bonnycastle & the Oxfordshire-based Marston Stud. She was one of the best horses sired by the outstanding miler Spinning World whose wins included the Irish 2000 Guineas, Prix Jacques le Marois, Prix du Moulin and Breeders' Cup Mile. His other progeny included Ancient World (Premio Vittorio di Capua), Special Harmony (Crown Oaks), Thorn Park (Stradbroke Handicap) and Duff (Park Stakes). Spinning Queen's dam Our Queen of Kings was an unraced half-sister of Labeeb (Hollywood Derby) and Fanmore (Arlington Handicap) and a descendant of the influential American broodmare Motto.
