Be My Native

Be My Native (foaled 16 February 1979) was an American-bred, British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. As a two-year-old he won one minor race but established himself as a potentially top class horse by finishing second in the Dewhurst Stakes. In the following year he won the Prix La Force but produced his most notable performance when finishing runner-up in the second running of the Arlington Million. He recorded his biggest career win as a four-year-old when he won the Coronation Cup. Apart from the aforementioned races he was placed in the Sandown Classic Trial, Dante Stakes, La Coupe de Maisons-Laffitte and Hardwicke Stakes. After his retirement from racing he became a very successful sire of National Hunt horses.
