Lichine (foaled 5 May 1979) was an American-bred, French-trained Thoroughbred racehorse who sold for a record-setting $1.7 million ($5.6 million inflation adjusted) as a yearling in 1980. Although he never threatened to repay his auction price, he was a useful racehorse, winning the Listed Prix de Suresnes as a three-year-old and finishing placed in several Group races.
