Starcraft (21 October 2000 – 3 November 2022[1]) was a New Zealand-bred Thoroughbred racehorse who came to international attention when he won the Group 1 Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Newmarket in England in September 2005.

He was a chestnut stallion, standing 16.2 hands (66 inches, 168 cm) high, foaled at Garry and Mark Chittick's Waikato Stud in New Zealand.

Starcraft progressed from a second placing in a two-year-old maiden race in Queensland[2] to winning the Group 1 Australian Derby in Sydney, Australia as a three-year-old.

In Europe, he surprised many Northern Hemisphere race fans with his dominance when he won the 1,600 metre Prix du Moulin at Longchamp, Paris.

He proved this was no fluke, and that he was the dominant miler in Europe, when winning the G1 Queen Elizabeth II Stakes which was held at Newmarket because Ascot was being refurbished at the time.
