Herbert Otto Madden, normally known as "Otto" (2 January 1873 in Hoppegarten - 21 May 1942 in Newmarket, Suffolk) was a four time British flat racing Champion Jockey. He was born to a jockey father, who had ridden Kincsem, the winningmost racehorse of all time in most of her races. Otto Madden was first apprenticed to James Waugh and then to Richard Marsh. For Marsh he won the Derby on the 100/1 longest-priced winner of all time, Jeddah in 1898. That same year he also won the Cesarewitch and Manchester November Handicap and ended the season as Champion Jockey. He went on to win every British Classic except the 1,000 Guineas. .
