Snow Bride (foaled 1986 in Kentucky, died 2009) was a British thoroughbred race horse sired by Blushing Groom. She was owned by Sheikh Mohammed and trained at Warren Place, Newmarket, Suffolk United Kingdom by Henry Cecil. She is in the record books as having won the Epsom Oaks in 1989 by disqualification after the Aga Khan's winning filly Aliysa tested positive for a camphor derivative, a banned substance.

Snow Bride is the dam of the champion colt Lammtarra, foaled in 1992 and winner of The Derby Stakes at Epsom, The King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot and the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp in Paris, France, all races graded Group 1 in the European Pattern. Snow Bride died of unknown causes in 2009.
