Montrose (1884–1898) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse that is best remembered for winning the 1887 Kentucky Derby. He was foaled in Kentucky and owned by the Labold brothers from Cincinnati, Ohio. He was ridden by Isaac E. Lewis in the Derby. The brothers made $20,000 on Montrose's win in the Derby.

Montrose also won the Morrissey Stakes and Great Western Handicap when he was a four-year-old and won the Kearney Stakes run in Saratoga, New York as a five-year-old. Montrose died on July 30, 1898 at the age of 14 years at the farm of Allen W. Thurman in Columbus, Ohio.
