Eugene A. Rodriguez (November 14, 1916 – October 23, 1996) was a Cuban-born jockey in American Thoroughbred horse racing.

Born in Matanzas, Cuba, Rodriguez began his career in racing at Oriental Park in Havana, a racetrack which in 1980 would induct him in their Hall of Fame. After emigrating to the United States, he competed at racetracks in California where he won a riding title at Del Mar Racetrack in 1940. He went on to race in New York State, New Jersey, Florida^[1] as well as in Toronto, Ontario, Canada during the latter part of the 1950s. In Toronto he won a number of stakes races at Woodbine Racetrack and the autumn 1956 riding title at Greenwood Raceway.^[2]
