Hail (foaled 27 September 1997) is a thoroughbred racehorse who won the New Zealand Derby in 2000.

In seven years of racing, Hail established for himself a reputation of reliability, strength and durability. Although he only won two Group 1 races, he finished in the first four in a further eight, including a fourth in the Wellington Cup under topweight.

He is one of the few Derby winners in recent times to have tasted success in Australia, with his win in the Group 2 Sandown Classic in late 2002.
