Spur (1913–1930) was an American thoroughbred racehorse. In 1916, he won eight major races and finished second in the Belmont Stakes. At age four, he equaled the Empire City track record for a mile and a sixteenth on the dirt in winning his second straight Yonkers Handicap. As a sire, standing at James Butler's Eastview Farm in Tarrytown, New York, Spur's best progeny was Sting.
Spur died on May 31, 1930 at Eastview Farm.
