The Pimlico Special is an American Grade I thoroughbred horse race held at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland in mid May. It is raced on dirt over a distance of 1³/16 miles (9.5 furlongs). The race is currently open to horses age four and older and offers a purse of $250,000.

Discontinued after 1958, the race was revived as a handicap event in 1988 and made a graded stakes race in 1990.

The Pimlico Special was first run in 1937 and was won by that year's U.S. Triple Crown winner War Admiral who went on to be voted the American Horse of the Year. In 1938, the Pimlico Special was host to one of American racing's historic moments when Seabiscuit defeated War Admiral in a much anticipated match race.

The Pimlico track record for 1³/16 miles is held by Farma Way who ran the distance in 1:52 2/5 while capturing the 1991 Pimlico Special.
