Thinking Cap (1952-1976) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse who successfully competed in major races from one mile to more than two miles. Out of the Heliopolis mare Camargo, he was sired by Rosemont who in turn was sired by the 1937 Leading sire in North America, The Porter.

Owned by the Christiana Stables of Harry Lunger and his wife Jane du Pont Lunger, Thinking Cap was trained by U. S. Hall of Fame inductee Henry S. Clark.

As a two-year-old he won the Pimlico Futurity over a muddy track.

Ridden by Paul Bailey, Thinking Cap won two of the top stakes for 3-year-olds over muddy tracks, taking the Travers Stakes in August and the Lawrence Realization Stakes in October.
