Redelva was a notable Australian thoroughbred racehorse.

A chestnut son of Romantic Hope from the mare Delvena, he was foaled in 1983 and was trained throughout his career by Greg Varcoe.

Redelva competed primarily in sprint races winning up to a distance of 1400m. He was a durable horse winning quality races at the highest level as a two-year-old right through to the age of eight.

Amongst his major wins were the 1990 VRC Lightning Stakes, 1991 MVRC William Reid Stakes and the SAJC Spring Stakes on three occasions (1988–90). Redelva was primarily ridden throughout his career by Neville "Nifty" Wilson
