Blast of Storm (foaled 1996 in Ireland) was a Barbadian Thoroughbred racehorse who was the first horse to win three consecutive runnings of the Barbados Gold Cup.[https://web.archive.org/web/20080315003142/http://www.barbadosturfclub.com/Stake%20Races/Sandy%20Lane%20Barbados%20Gold%20Cup.aspx The Barbados Gold Cup – The most prestigious horse race in the Caribbean]

Trained by William C. Marshall for owner Lady Sally Arbib, Blast of storm was ridden by Jono Jones in all three of his Gold Cup wins.

Retired from racing, Blast of storm entered stud in Barbados in 2003.
