Eye of the Sphynx (foaled 2001 in Ontario) is a Canadian Champion Thoroughbred racehorse and successful broodmare.

Bred and raced by Sam-Son Farm, Eye of the Sphynx was trained by Mark Frostad. At age three, she won Canada's most important race for three-year-old fillies, the Woodbine Oaks. Her overall performance for that year earned her the 2004 Sovereign Award for Champion 3-Year-Old Filly. In 2014, Eye of the Sphynx received the Sovereign Award for Outstanding Broodmare.[1]

Retired to broodmare duty at her owner's renowned stud farm, her first foal was sired by U.S. Racing Hall of Fame inductee and two-time Leading sire in North America, A.P. Indy. Born in 2006, the colt, Eye of the Leopard, won Canada's most prestigious horse race in 2009, the Queen's Plate.
