Sir Huon (foaled 1903 in Kentucky) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse that was the winner of the 1906 Kentucky Derby and Latonia Derby. Sir Huon was named after a character in the German opera Oberon and was bred at George J. Long's stud farm, Bashford Manor Stable. He was sired by the great turf-racer Falsetto, who was greatly aged by then at near thirty years old, out of the mare Ignite (by Woodlands).Jim Bolus.

Sir Huon won the 1906 Kentucky Derby, with Roscoe Troxler as his jockey, by two lengths over the filly Lady Navarre. His win was notable because it marked the first time since 1902 that a horse had won the Derby without racing as a three-year-old prior to running in the Derby.John O'Connor.

Sir Huon also won the 1905 Harold Stakes and in 1906 the Cincinnati Queen City Handicap, Commonwealth Handicap and Seagate Stakes.[http://www.pedigreequery.com/sir+huon Sir Huon Pedigree]

Sir Huon was nominated to run in the 1908 Suburban Handicap but did not run in that race due to an injury.New York Times. [https://www.proquest.com/docview/96749423 June 14, 1907] He was retired to stud in 1908 but did not produce any noteworthy offspring. However, he is an ancestor of a few Quarter horse lineages.

In 1918, Sir Huon was given by George Long to the United States Army cavalry remount service as a sire for military horses.Washington Post. [https://www.proquest.com/docview/145606158 Oct. 20, 1918.]
