Garnet Bougoure (3 March 1923 – 22 November 2008) was an Australian jockey in Thoroughbred horse racing who was highly successful competing in South-East Asia and in Europe.
Bougoure was a still a boy when he left his home in Dalby, Queensland, to pursue a career as a jockey at racetracks in the Brisbane area.
In 1945 he won his first major race and went on to win a number of premier events including two editions of the Australian Cup.
In the late 1950s Bougoure returned to race in Europe where his association with trainer Vincent O'Brien and Paddy Prendergast helped make him one of the top jockeys in Ireland and England during the first half of the 1960s.
He competed for the last time in Australia in 1952 and the following year accepted a contract to ride in India.
Then, in 1954 he spent five months in France before moving to ride in Singapore and Malaysia.

He became the only Australian to lead the jockeys' list in Ireland, accomplishing the feat in 1960.

Garnet Bougoure returned to Singapore during the second half of the 1960s where he continued to riding until retiring in 1969.
His success in 1963 helped make Prendergast the first Irish-based trainer to ever win the British trainers' title.
