Sweet Embrace was a notable Australian thoroughbred racehorse. She was a chestnut daughter of Todman from the Port Vista mare Miss Port.[1]

She was owned by Jack and Bob Ingham.[2]

She is best remembered for winning the 1967 STC Golden Slipper Stakes as a maiden at long odds of 40/1.[1]

The Sweet Embrace Stakes run annually at Randwick Racecourse is named in her honour.
