Lord Clifden (1860-1875) was a champion British Thoroughbred racehorse, having many successes throughout his career including winning the Woodcote Stakes and Champagne Stakes in 1862 and the St.Leger in 1863. Upon retiring from racing Lord Clifden became champion sire of Great Britain and Ireland in 1876, with subsequent notable progeny. His sire line survives today through thoroughbred Bay Ronald and his son Dark Ronald.
