Mr Frisk (c.1979–2000) was a racehorse, famous for his victory in the 1990 Grand National. He completed the course in record time of 8 minutes and 47.80 seconds, ridden by Marcus Armytage; this still stands as of 2018, even though the race has been one-fifth of a mile shorter since 2013. The pair also went on to win the Whitbread Gold Cup three weeks later.
After retirement from racing he continued as an eventer, trained by Tracey Bailey.
He was put down in September 2000 after fracturing a hind leg.
