Kip Deville (foaled May 3, 2003) is an American Thoroughbred racehorse whose most important win came at age four in the 2007 Breeders' Cup Mile. Bred in Oklahoma by Dr. Warren Center, Kip Deville was an Eclipse Award finalist for American Champion Male Turf Horse in 2007. In 2008 Kip Deville won his second straight edition of the Maker's Mark Mile Stakes at Keeneland. Though he was not scheduled to race again until early September when he would be sent to Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto, Canada to compete in the Woodbine Mile, a race in which he ran second in 2007. Dutrow decided to try the Poker Handicap. Kip Deville won. Hopefully, he will return to defend his title in the Breeders' Cup Mile at Santa Anita Park in late October.

On August 8, 2008, the Oklahoma Thoroughbred Association named Kip Deville as its Horse of the Year for 2007. He also won the Older Male, and Turf Runner awards. Kip Deville is now the all-time leading accredited Oklahoma-bred runner. Klodike Kaytie (now deceased), the dam of Kip Deville, was named broodmare of the year.
