So You Think has been retired by Coolmore after he was ruled out of the Coral-Eclipse at Sandown on Saturday.

Aidan O’Brien’s Australian recruit was discovered to have pulled muscles in his hind quarters and he was immediately pulled out of this weekend’s Group One showpiece.

The multiple Group One winner will now enter quarantine on Saturday before he makes the trip back to Coolmore Australia for the breeding season in the southern hemisphere.

O'Brien explained in a statement: "So You Think is an extraordinary horse and it was a real privilege to have had him here at Ballydoyle on loan from Australia."

So You Think was last seen winning the Group One Prince Of Wales's Stakes at Royal Ascot.
