Imported from England as a yearling, *War Cloud was the first horse to run in all three Triple Crown events (he ran 4th in the Kentucky Derby as favorite). He was sent to France after his four-year-old season but had little success there and was returned to the USA to stand the 1923 season at Claiborne Farm. He broke a leg following the 1923 breeding season and had to be destroyed.
