Tributes have been paid to Godolphin sprint star Creative Force who suffered a fatal injury at York on Wednesday leaving his former groom “in absolute tears”.
The colt won Royal Ascot’s Jersey Stakes and landed the Group 1 Champions Sprint at Ascot in 2021.
He got off the mark for the campaign on Saturday at Haydock and was having his second start in four days when lining up in the 1895 Duke of York Clipper Stakes. He was at the rear of the field when he broke down after two furlongs of the 6f sprint having suffered a life-ending injury.
