Muley (1810 – 1837) was a British racehorse. His main contribution to the Thoroughbred was as an influential sire.
Muley's pedigree was strong. His dam (Eleanor) won both the Epsom Oaks and Epsom Derby. His sire (Orville) won 20 of 34 races. He was bred in Suffolk by Sir Charles Bunbury, 6th Baronet.
Muley had a late start to his racing career and raced only four times as a five-year-old, winning twice.
Muley was retired to stud at Blickling Hall in 1816.
Muley was considered to have larger bone, and greater muscular power than any thoroughbred stallion in England according to the publication Celebrated Racehorses of the Past Centuries Vol.1 Thomas Taunton.
