Kingsgate Native (foaled 20 February 2005) is an Irish-bred, British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse. He was a precocious juvenile sprinter, winning the Nunthorpe Stakes against older horses as well as finishing second in the Prix de l'Abbaye, Windsor Castle Stakes and Molecomb Stakes. He was equally successful in 2008, winning the Golden Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot before being retired to become a breeding stallion. After proving infertile at stud he returned to the track in 2009 and won the King George Stakes. He has remained in training, winning the Temple Stakes in 2010 and 2013 and the Achilles Stakes in 2015 as well as racing prominently in many other major sprint races. ==Background== Kingsgate Native is a dark-coated bay horse with a white star bred in Ireland by Peter McCutcheon.
