The Horris Hill Stakes is a Group 3 flat horse race in the United Kingdom for two-year-old thoroughbred colts and geldings. It is run over a distance of 7 furlongs (1,408 metres) at Newbury Racecourse in late October.

Before 2000 it was run over a distance of 7 furlongs 64 yards (1,467 metres), and prior to 1987 fillies were eligible to run. Notable horses to have contested the race include the 1989 winner Tirol and the 1993 third Erhaab, who both went on to win Classic Races the following season.
